Legitimately such a clever idea for an open ended yet compelling "quest" for a prehistoric setting! Also lovely use of colours, I really like the hexmap.

Haha thanks. Honestly I just didn't want anyone to think their cave-carving was some fantasy thing I made up! Reality is amazing!

Very cute. I like how no-turn-taking is a design decision to reflect the nature of cats!

Question re: the dice and friendliness towards cats. Am I right in thinking that it's NOT the absolute number that matters, but rather the number relative to the max value of the dice?

For example, a 3 on a d20 represents very low friendliness, but a 3 on a d4 is almost max friendliness... right? Thanks!

RPGBot been real quiet since this dropped 2 hours ago.

YOU DIED. AND THAT’S JUST THE BEGINNING.

Your last job went wrong. Everybody died. And then you woke up.

    The afterlife is a white-walled room with some suit who says he’s an “angel,” here to judge your “sins.” Is this Heaven? Hell? Or something worse?

        One thing’s for sure. In this galaxy, NOBODY RESTS IN PEACE

... Flatline is a trifold sci-fi horror/mystery scenario designed for use with the Mothership RPG 1e (Tuesday Knight Games).

In Flatline, players start the adventure dead, and must discover the truth behind their resurrection. Flatline can be played as a one-shot mystery, or as a continuation of a campaign after a Total Party Kill (TPK)! Plus:

• Unique mechanics for playing a CYBERGHOST.
• A layered mystery; NPCs with conflicting agendas.
• New TECH for dealing with the undead

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Yes you are on the money re: the GM stuff, it is pretty much vestigial, at its heart the game doesn't really need a GM at all. Tbh I am very new to GMless/solo/journalling type games so it's really there as a holdover for people like me who are more comfortable with that format ahah.

Interesting concept!

Very funny!

M sai hak hei! (I'm cantonese actually lol)

Thanks so much!

Thank you so much! Hope you have fun!

Hey y'all, I made a little zombie ttrpg called Flesh, Don't Fail Me Now! for the Lean, Green Zine Jam! You play a decomposing zombie hoping to reach Sanctuary before you falls to bits!

It's super light (the rules are 4 pages long), it's super splatstick (100% body-part-based mechanics!), and it can be played in about 1 hour, with or without a GM, with a group or solo! And best of all, it's Pay What You Want! I hope you enjoy!

My entry to the jam! Looking at the criteria:

LEAN: Failed, tbh! Ended up a lot bigger than I intended at first, but at least I kept it to two 2-page booklets. May get expansions later!

GREEN: Zombies are GREEN!

ZINE: Art is human-made but all digital so, eh? The character sheet is designed to be printed, cut out AND cut up! Really rip your zombie apart!

Optional Theme: Resistance: It's all about it! You know, in a literal sense. You're constantly falling apart and you must resist attacks, traps, and the weather on your quest across the city.

Very stylish!

This is really cute!

Hello viewers of this page! I went a bit outside the box for this one. The jam made me think of how to incorporate a haunted-house story into a space sci-fi setting (for my fave TTRPG, Mothership). So this is my attempt!

During the jam period it's gonna be available for free from this page. You can access it using the password "phantasms." Thereafter it'll be a paid module. So get it while you can!

If you are a Mothership Warden I hope you enjoy running it. The concepts, maps, and storyline might also be usable if you're running a different sci-fi RPG.

Really fun spells!

Beautiful! Bower birds are the coolest!

Perfect idea. Fishing is such a quintessentially videogamey thing for no good reason lol.

Thanks so much for the kind words! I'd love to hear how it goes!

Really quite lovely.

Really beautiful art

Very very pretty

Really clever

This feels like a page ripped from a discworld book (complimentary)

I'm really impressed with how crunchy this feels within the 48-word limit. For some reason I was also driven to create feelings of doom with my entry but I think you did it better.

I really dig the mechanics and the vibes.

Really cute

Rushed to get this in before the deadline. I think I could have done more with the non-euclidian theme but inspiration just wasn't hitting! Oh well, glad I finished something anyway.

Quite a lovely sentiment

Alright I changed it

Thank you! Yeah that's exactly the intent, I was tying myself in knots to fit it under 48 words and apparently I'm dumb hahaha

Interesting map work, I can imagine rotating this around on a table!

Really interested in this jam and I have some ideas brewing but I'm curious as to how broad a definition of "house" is intended. Is a house any building or is it specifically primarily a domicile? Does something like Resident Evil in which a spooky mansion is cover for a secret lab count as haunted house horror?

A super fun module to flesh out an intriguing aspect of Prospero's Dream! Really helped make narcotics into its own fun thing rather than just a stat boosting item.

I ran Icarus and it's a perfect Mothership one-shot!

If you REALLY, REALLY just have 2-3 hours to play (which I did) I would rank it higher than most of the standard recommended MoSh one-shot pamphlets. Nothing against them at all! but a more investigative focus can threaten to spiral into multiple sessions, whereas Icarus' GO GO GO vibe gets to the meat quickly.

I'm proud to announce the official release of my dim-sum themed  trifold adventure scenario, Xiao! Long! Bao! for the Mothership 1e TTRPG from Tuesday Knight Games!

X!L!B! was my entry to the TripTech² fall game jam, and I'm SUPER proud to announce that X!L!B! WON 1st Place in peer voting as well as judge awards for Most Favorable, Community Select and Thematic Excellence!

X!L!B! is a meaty body-horror scenario wrapped in a cutesy glutinous exterior- just like a perfect dumpling!

Hi again, it's now public if you're still interested!

Hi there, sorry this is not officially released yet, so it's still just viewable by members/judges of the game jam. It'll be coming out very soon though!

Thanks for the feedback!

To be clear, that's exactly the intent!: Bao is still an alcoholic. He's trying to turn his life around but the addiction is hard to kick.
