Looks gorgeous, and I like the idea of a FitD space game that's incorporating everything we've learned since the first release of BitD. Would love to get a print by demand version if you get to that stage! The Core Playsets are a great idea - you could have a military one (Space: Above and Beyond/BSG), an exploration one (Star Trek-ish), a space horror one (Alien/Mothership/etc) - having rules for campaign/setting _types_ rather than specific settings is a great way to make things flexible

Thanks!

I'll definitely set up a print on demand and also have some print-friendly options available once I get closer to a finished version.

And you read my mind with the additional playsets. That's exactly what I want to do. I have ideas for playsets based on rebellions, being a freelancer (smuggling/skip tracing), solving mysteries, monster of the week-style play similar to Bump in the Dark. The space horror one is also one I want to do as I love Alien. I just have to separate it out from the Alien RPG and Mothership stuff like you mentioned. I hadn't thought of Star Trek-related exploration but I love that idea. I had an idea for a science/tech supplement with playbooks for doctors or scientists and having an exploration playset would fit really well into that idea. 

Appreciate the feedback!

Thoughts about a survival/political playset inspired by the likes of Dune?

Yeah! That's another one I really want to do. I only recently got into Dune but I think it would work well. My initial thought would be to have a Series Playset called "The Resource" and have it be about trying to gain control of a precious and rare resource. VERY Dune inspired. I'd have to figure out the playbooks for that. 


Separately, I was thinking of making a playbook that is essentially a clone or engineered creature called an "Echo" with it being a combo of Bene Gesserit and Tleilaxu. It would have abilities for recalling past memories and stuff like that. It's very early concept, though, but I thought that might be a good way to include some of those themes.
