You’re welcome!

I’ll keep that in mind! Looking forward to the Dead Net.

Great idea! I’ve been busy working on The Swindle, but I’ll add this to the list for the next update. Thanks!

I’ve been dreaming of this since my first derelict! The structure of the game felt primed for cyberpunk infiltrations, and it’s been on my list of future projects/hacks. Guess you beat me to it! Signing up 😎

Glad to hear it, and thanks! I enjoyed experimenting with halftone patterns to get the same effect in black and white. Cheers!

Glad you got it worked out! I went through and double checked the source file, and everything seems consistent there. I made some slight adjustments in 1.5 to keep all text clear of the margins. Let me know if you have any further issues!

Done!

Updated! Let me know if the mono version works out better for you.

Hey, great idea! Perchance yes. I’ll see what I can do 🏴‍☠️

Thanks for the detailed feedback, truly. I’ll look into making a high contrast black and white version. The current version is aiming for parity with the official Starforged character sheet, which includes color in the cool gray tones (so I’m not sure how printing in mono affects that). But I can certainly bump up the contrast and look into whether the export settings can be further improved. Stay tuned :)

Sorry about that! Still getting used to the new export dialog in Affinity.

Thanks for the feedback! And yes, the photo could definitely stand to be improved haha. And for what it’s worth, I’ve printed a couple dozen pages of sticky notes by now (for this and for Mausritter) and I’ve yet to have a single paper jam. As long as the sticky side is toward the printer feed and it’s pressed flat, it should be fine 🤞😇 Of course, YMMV. Thanks for the kind words!

You’re very welcome! Glad to hear it’s helpful :)

Apologies! It’s fixed now. Still getting used to the new Affinity export dialog.

Everything looks fine on my end, and I tested it to make sure. Give this view link a try, then go to File > Make a Copy. If that doesn’t work, send me an email at info@jaderavens.com and I’ll get the file to you directly.

I’ll look into it, thanks for letting me know!

A4 versions are now available!

Thanks! I was really proud of that. And that’s a good idea — I’ll post an update if/when I get around to it. Thanks for your kind words!

I understand exactly what you mean, and it’s so gratifying to hear that my design intent came through!

I imagine my drift pilot unceremoniously tucking the flight manual between instrument panels, shoving it under a loose deck plate to keep it from rattling, or hastily rumpling its pages trying to navigate without the Nav/Sat…

Yay!! Glad to hear it! I’m proud of how it turned out. Have fun exploring the Forge!

Thanks! Glad you like it 😎

You’re welcome :) Enjoy!

That is intentional, yes, mostly because the literal translations of those words differed in a lot of the sources I found. Since I had two spaces, I decided to include both for the sake of variety. Most of the other translations seemed fairly straightforward.

Yep! That way you can fit it in however makes the most sense for the layout. It works the same way as pencil and paper—click the check box to roll the dice and generate the room, then draw it onto your map.

Thanks! Glad you like it 🐁

It’s on my radar, but I don’t have a timeline for it.

Thank you!

Great idea! If I get around to it, I’ll be sure to update the page. Thanks!

Great work so far, and excited to more as it develops! 🙌

You’re welcome!

Thanks! Have fun!

I know what you mean about the item cards being fiddly. Thanks for making this! A more traditional inventory sheet is definitely useful. The problem I kept running into was accidentally shifting or losing item cards, so I made a character sheet that uses sticky-notes instead. Check it out here.

Enjoy!

Good point! The second draft is available here, which includes a ship sheet with a cargo track. Is that closer to what you had in mind?

Also curious about this :)

That’s a great question! No, I reserve the rights to the original artwork. I encourage player groups to share the maps with each other or use them on VTT to support their games, but they shouldn’t be republished without permission. If there’s a specific use case you’re interested in, I’d love to consider it! If you’d like, you can email the details to info@jaderavens.com :)

Sure, and especially as a solo RPG there’s room for interpretation. But I guess I don’t really see anything in the intersection rules (as far as hauler movement) that implies they can snake or bend?

(1 edit)

I think the idea is that you can skitch around the end of a hauler ending up in the space just past it (when it’s no longer adjacent), essentially giving you at least 2 extra squares of movement. I say at least because there’s also the possibility that the haulers are lined up in a way that would let you chain across multiple haulers that way. Does that make sense? I don’t think they’re ever meant to bend.

Just completed this interactive playsheet for Spindlejack, for anyone who’s interested: Spindlesheet.

Love this game, and both Citizen Sleeper games, too — they’re masterpieces!

I did find some typos/errors in v1-02:

  • Panel 2 > //HITTING AN INTERSECTION: Seems like “intersection” should be capitalized in the first sentence of this section.
  • Panel 2 > //HITTING AN INTERSECTION: “…setting up and tacking…” Should the emphasized word be “tracking” or “tackling”?
  • Panel 2 > //DELIVERY: Likewise, should “destination” be capitalized as well?
  • Panel 2 > //DELIVERY: “… and failed it, subtract -5 from the payout.” Adding the emphasized word could improve clarity.
  • Panel 3 > //CLOCKING OFF + CYCLE END: “You can also visit the Bikeshop you may make any upgrades.” Should this be “to make any upgrades”?
  • Panel 4 > //ROLLING HAULERS: This sentence should be capitalized: “add two more dice towards the middle…”
  • Panel 4 > //PLAYING AN INTERSECTION: “on the SIDE your have entered from…” should be “you,” not “your”.
