Thanks so much! This is a great review and I appreciate you taking the time to play. 

The intention is for that to be 1 minute of game time, so if that's during combat then fit it into the turns as appropriate. I tend to be pretty flexible with measuring time when I play, so a vague minute-ish period is fine for this. The real intention is to make this narratively interesting and fun to play, so that can translate into however you feel it best to implement it. 

This is awesome to hear - these adventures would fit very neatly into Frog Errant!

This is a great pack - simple and clean illustrations. I used the d6 set in a browser-playable dice and card game I published here: https://tenacregames.com/forty-one/

I love the style of these cards - they're classic, but the hand-drawn style makes them interesting. I used them for a browser-playable card game I published here: https://tenacregames.com/forty-one/

This looks great! It's a very clean layout that's clear and easy to read. Thanks for sharing :) 

Itch doesn't handle that sort of thing, but instead I've emailed you a download key for the full version of the plugin using the email address on your account when you purchased. That will give you the full thing to download at no extra cost.

This is wonderful feedback - thank you so much for the support! :) 

Well, Itch says it's used when a game is featured on the home page, but I don't think I've ever actually seen it in action. I don't always add that one to my games (mostly because I'm not ever expecting a feature on the Itch home page), but I figured I'd keep the template for it in this set for completeness.

This is really cute and a fun way to create a new character. Feels like it would work well for adding some more depth to a Mausritter character.

Sounds interesting! I'll take a deeper look and see if I can work something out here.

You could certainly make your own track easily - just set up any obstacles or difficulties you like and you'll be good to go. As for drag racing - that's a tough one. Drag races are short with zero obstacles, so it feels like it would be difficult to make an interesting game out of it. I'll think about it and see if I can come up with some drag racing mechanics that would be fun to play.

You're too kind - thank you :) 

Thank you! I'm glad you like it :) And thanks for the rating - always appreciated.

Ah, thanks so much! 

Awesome - thanks for adding all that, and thanks for creating this excellent template :)

Love this! The answer to all the questions is "yes" :D The backstory of the rats being shipwrecked on the beach is excellent - adds some good story to the whole thing.

The slow ram of the snail is great - I love the idea of it just slowly pursuing you until it finally catches up when you least expect it.

Thanks for the great and super encouraging feedback!

Thank you! I'll pass that on to Noah.

Awesome - hope they enjoy it!

Thanks! Very encouraging for Noah :) 

Thanks! The 1/4-fold zine is a great format to work with.

I finished up and published the game I made with this template here: https://hlashbrooke.itch.io/story-journey

Ah, thanks! I hope you have some fun with it :) 

I'm working on something using this template and, since I work in Canva a lot of the time, I created Canva versions of the basic template. I thought it would be worth sharing them here:

• A4: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGol-H6ahU/jvdGjAfJoJKxzxjTprI5xQ/view?mode=preview (margins: 6mm)
• Letter: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGol0Fl8C8/tvtGHNrF4D_O2YHhFPmSsQ/view?mode=preview (margins: 0.25in)

They use your image for the whole thing, with guidelines included for easy use in Canva. Feel free to add them to your template pack here if you like - I won't be removing the template links, so they're going to reliably remain available.

I suppose you would need someone who can print on larger card - something like A3 would be fine - and then you cut the printed section out from there. I would say it's easiest to find a local print shop that does that in your area.

Thanks!

There's no separate Discord server for this. It's the first time doing this particular jam, but I have run others before. I might set up a server as a catch-all for all jams and things, but for now I'm not doing that.

No - this is a standalone adventure. You could always insert it into Whiskers in the Wind (or any other setting) if you like.

This is just fantastic - had a ton of fun playing it. Interesting, unique, and rewarding!

Well the rules need to be printed on the cereal box, so they will be part of the design. I don't fully understand your question so if you clarify a little more, I might be able to be more helpful. 

No limitations, but I would say it's best to keep them to the types of components that people would usually have available (dice, cards, etc.).

It will be the same as when anyone buys anything on Itch - they own a copy of it, and you still own the rights to your work. You can put whatever licence you want on your work to portect it.

That's a fantastic idea! Using a prize from inside the box for the game would be very cool. 

Yes of course! Using the cereal as part of the game is an excellent idea 😊

Got questions? Ask them here!

I know this thread is a few years old now, but I was wondering if this is an area that had moved forward at all. Is there a chance you will be adding ratings and reviews to the API soon, or a timeline for when you think it might be implemented?

Is there an RSS feed or an API endpoint for getting the ratings and reviews of a specific project?

I think the answer is no, in which case, is this something that could be added to the API?

Ideally, it would be an API call where you specify a project’s ID, and it returns the ratings and reviews. If it could be authenticated, so only the project owner can access it, that would be better for security of course, but in general, it would be great if this was available for developers to access.

Would something like that be possible?

Pre-orders are now over, and you can purchase the setting like normal from today!

You can play with as many players as you like! The waves of opponents come on their own and can be managed by a GM, neutral player, or just anyone else. Each round starts with the players taking their turns - each player can do something during their turn as outlines in the rules. If I’m playing this within a larger game, I like to let the players use their existing character’s skill in some way - casting spells, using items, etc.

The more players you have, the easier it is to defend the tower, so it might help to increase the number or strength of opponents if you have a lot of players. With the rules as written, I find it works well with 2-4 players.

The wizard class uses the spells from the core Mausritter rule book. That’s noted in the pamphlet, but perhaps not clearly enough :)
