Greetings!
It's been a while since I've posted an update for Danse Macabre here on Itch, but I have some very exciting news to share with you here!
Since publishing the early draft of DM here, it has since been picked up by the illustrious Stillfleet Studio for co-development and publishing the game! Since signing with Stillfleet, we've been hard at work on Danse Macabre: Prima Mors – a brand new, early access version of the game with expanded lore, art, and everything you need to pick up and play DM, using the fast and flexible Grit System, originally developed by Wythe Marschall. Prima Mors is 64 pages long and features:
- Complete rules
- 6 backgrounds (classes, including Archer, Mendicant, and more)
- 20 maleficia (wild body-horror mutations)
- Full lists of equipment (weapons, armor, useful medieval travel gear
- A beautiful written introduction to the game-world (which is a twisted shadow of our own in 1390 CE)
- An introductory quest
- An ornamental character sheet
- Amazing art (all #HumanMade by the author!)
And there's more to come! We plan on releasing the full game at some point in 2025 and are aiming for a 200 page A5 book packed to the gills with lore, illustrations, weird mutations, and more. You can expect a d100 table of mutations (called Maleficia), 20 total starting backgrounds, faction rules, quest hooks, and more! Be sure to follow us over at the Stillfleet Itch page to get more updates as the game continues development!
