Not a Demon is a game about perseverance and creativity, about seeing beyond appearances, and being true to who you are.
You play as a shapeshifter guardian spirit manifested in the human world as a demon-like creature. Despite your honorable calling, the common folk see you as a monster, and they treat you as one.
Your supernatural essence stops you from communicating directly to them. You are uncapable of mundane actions, such as talking or interacting with the material world. Whatever you do, it is both miraculous and terrifying for the people of these lands.
Everything in this world will tell you to give up and return to the spirit realm, or become the demon they say you are. But you know your truth, and you are determined to be a guardian and a helper of these people, even if they never recognize you as such.

And then, when the time has come for your watch to end, find out what happens to The Sanctuary when you are no longer able to guard it.
Travel By Starlight is a collaborative storytelling game, where each story is started, developed, and concluded by drawing a constellation. Players take the role of Astral Guides, and take turns driving the story of a single character or entity until they reach their journey's end.
Gameplay is cyclical and ephemeral: every playthrough involves a new character with their own story. At the end of every journey, the cycle begins anew. The characters don't stay, but the truths they uncover about the world remain, and may affect succeeding cycles.
Afterwards, their journeys are immortalized as constellations in the sky, on a canvas that the players can keep, or forget.
You will need at least 3 players, a six-sided die, and any medium (a piece of paper, a whiteboard, a digital canvas) upon which all players can draw points and lines. No other preparation is required, other than an open willingness to come together to tell a story.
When human hearts turn to greed, when people care about nothing more than their own power, they call out to a powerful evil, a demon beyond time: EGO. In these wheres and whens, time begins to break down, moments shifting uncertainly against one another, allowing those who stand against EGO to join forces against its Incarnation, and maybe take down the evil itself across all times: The Age of Fairies, The Age of Knights, The Age of Piracy, The Gothic Age, The Vaudeville Age, The Age of Spies, The Dystopian Age, and finally facing EGO in The Age Beyond Ages.

Broken Wilds is a fantasy ttrpg that I've been developing for 6+ years.

Basically, it's everything I wanted Fantasy TTRPGs.
Parry! is a two player one page TTRPG for creating epic duels with minimal set-up! This system uses D4s, D8s, and D12s, but has optional randomization and a simple core mechanic, which makes it feel unique without being too much of a hassle to learn. This system plays on the tropes of the emotionally charged duel, and though there are many motivations for this kind of fight besides love, this system’s central theme is partly based on Thirsty Sword Lesbians by April Kit Walsh and Evil Hat, so if you want something that has a similar game feel, but a longer and more polished game form, please go check it out!
