GUM V2 Rev12 (Final)

Game Unfolding Machine
A downloadable game

Dear GUM players,

TLDR: In order for me to focus the products better, I removed the oracles from GUM, since that can be done by PUM better. And removed NPC interactions from GUM, since in that regard, SUM can do a better job. All in all, the layout was reviewed, so GUM is compatible with other products as well. You can use all three of my systems, or the ones you like with your own setup :)

Long story:

  • Removed oracles and NPC interactions, as conflicting elements that are present in either PUM and SUM, or other systems. Why?
    • Leave these systems with a clear purpose and separation
    • I don't have to maintain multiple systems doing similar things, but rather each own thing WELL
    • Reinforce the collaboration of each PUM, SUM, and GUM so they go well along
  • Shrank page count and explanations to focus the content's purpose
  • GUM is now specifically a gm assistant and offers itself as a set of abstract random tables to plug in into any setup.

Thank you!
