itch.io

it’s not designed to be anything other than a solo game, but I think it depends on how much you want to tweak the rules yourself or discuss the narrative events as they come up? The expansion, Outsiders, also has a duo character which you could split the dice rolls on if you wanted something more obviously two-player 😄

Nice, glad you’re enjoying it! I like to think of each event as a small highlight/scene as part of your wider search for the target. Kinda like how a TV show is usually set around a few sets/locations and doesn’t show the characters actually travelling between them, but picks out the most dramatic moments. You can imagine the locals saying to each other that there’s a Nomad sniffing around looking for someone 😄

Sure, I can’t see any reason why it would break the game if you want to do that! Some of the destination event tables already say to roll twice, as they take place in the larger hubs on each planet. It was just a design decision to keep your game moving but whatever you prefer should work - you’ll just need to move on in order to trigger leads and targets eventually. 

Hey, please message me on Kickstarter and I’ll send you a link, or take a community copy and I’ll replace it :)

aha you’re right! I’ve marked it as a demo :)

Hahaha this is perfect! 😆

sure! please send me an email: alwayscheckers at gmail dot com 

I’ve actually had the same thought myself! It’s definitely something I’ll do if I ever release an updated version of Notorious or another expansion :)

Feel free to take a community copy and I’ll add some more to make up for it! Thanks for buying the boxed set, hope you enjoy it :)

normally the stores can provide the digital files, but if you email me at alwayscheckers at gmail dot com I can get you a code! 😄

Hmm, I’ll try and look into it this week! I haven’t heard about this problem before and the file hasn’t changed recently or anything... 

If it helps, someone put together a Google doc version of the character sheet you could use in the meantime.

hey, sorry I’m not sure I understand the question?

there’s only one version of the books so if you order them you’ll get the same one as everyone else :)

the digital version may be slightly different as there was a small fix made to the digital files, if that’s what you mean? let me know if you have a different question! :D

There is no exclusive content! It’s just some wording that is part of the itch.io site. I use that section to provide free community copies :)

I'll definitely write another solo game in future and have an idea for another expansion to Notorious.

But I'm actually working with my friend Jack on a set of 3 solo games at the moment and maybe something else after that :)

You can check the games out here! 

Yep, I actually sent your codes after your Shopify order and then again when you emailed so something isn’t working :)

Not sure if you're getting my emails, might want to check your junk folder :)

Hey, please email me at alwayscheckers at gmail dotcom and I’ll get you a code!

Thanks Philippe! So nice to hear solo players are enjoying the game.

Hey, if you provided an email address it should have been sent out to you already (to the email address you provided in Shopify). If it hasn’t come through please email me at alwayscheckers at gmail dot com and I’ll get you a code asap. Cheers. 

Hey, feel free to email me at alwayscheckers at gmail dot com and I’ll get you a code for the digital files. 

I would suggest moving to the epilogue and calculating your score as if you let the target get away! But you could treat it as a regular defeat, go back to the game loop and meet them again if you prefer :)

I tried to write it so you can mix and match the Nomads between both games :)

You just might need to look at the Factions in Outsiders—as they have an allied Faction listed in their profile.

It might help when things like your Origin/Scar/Trigger come up when switching between games.

Thank you zerodan! 🤩 You can call me Jason 😂

Ah thank you, that really means a lot and glad you enjoyed it solo! It should have arrived with all backers by the end of August so I’m hoping more people will get a chance to play soon 😄

Hey, I’m not sure about community copies just yet, but if it’s for a school or something then shoot me an email at alwayscheckers at gmail dot com and I’ll send you a code! 

Sure, if you email me at alwayscheckers at gmail dot com I can send it to you! Or message me on Kickstarter? :) Just need your email address!

I’ve emailed you the codes! They should have been emailed via Backerkit a while ago but hopefully you’ve got them now :)

Hey, if it was from a retailer they should have itch.io codes to give out, which have all the digital files! If that’s not possible please send me an email at alwayscheckers at gmail dot com and I’ll send you one. 

Ahh, that’s so good to hear! Thanks for coming back to let me know :D Congrats on running the event, sounds like they had a great time. 

Both Notorious and Outsiders have 76 pages

Hi Ziggy, I don’t think I received any emails but please get in touch using alwayscheckers at gmail dotcom :)

This has now been fixed in the latest version of the files.

Hey, that's awesome news! Glad they arrived in time and hope you enjoy the games :)

yep, it’s on my list to fix these and update the files very soon :)

For at least the next month you can get discounted copies here:

https://outsiders.backerkit.com/

After that I’ll probably put a physical bundle on my own site and look at what I can do on itch!

Glad you're enjoying it! :)

I haven't seen any homebrew content yet but I'm totally cool with it (as long as it doesn't re-use art or text from the game and isn't offensive etc.!).

Hi Dougal, retailers should have been emailed itch.io keys to go along with any physical copies of the game!
If you're able to leave an email address here I'll send you a key and then delete the comment so your email is not public.

Love it! Thanks for the comment, always makes my day haha 😁

That’s awesome, thank you! :D

I've just checked again and you're both right! Sections II and III are having this issue. I'll get the PDF fixed and re-upload when I get the chance :)
