Framerole = what kind of game do you want me to be?

Okay, so this guy over on the RPG.net forums dropped a link to this system he has been working on - Framerole.

Unbelievable stuff.

It’s basically an abstraction layer on top of a roleplaying game in itself, with unlimited options for customizations. In other words, by writing this, he makes most other game system ever created a subset of the Framerole rules. Kind of hard to wrap my head around that.

Here’s the link for the 283 page download.

And here is the thread if you want to learn more about some of his design choices.

Crazy.

Teenage Sorcery Is Free.

The Life and Times of a Teenage Sorcerer is out.

I’ve had this one on the back burner for a short while. It just needed a few fixes to be decent enough to toss out into the world.

I wrote this for my niece for her birthday back in May. It was an opportunity to use my creativity for educational pursuits. The particular challenge was making a fun, imaginative game that could also reinforce math skills. Multiplication tables, to be exact.

Slap in a sort of quasi-Twilight, Buffy, Harry Potter-esque tone, and you get a pretty rad game.

You will find a very worthy free download with a nice little layout, background, use of fonts, and all. I probably overdid it.

Check it out over at the game’s page, and spread the word.

Waking Up to 500+ Sales of Barbarians Versus?

This morning, the mysticages email account was a bit slow, and when I peaked in, I saw the reason why - over 500+ purchases of Barbarians Versus by 8 AM.

Whoa.

But it’s a good whoa. RPGNow/DriveThruRPG put together a quick Haiti Relief bundle. It’s $20, all proceeds going to Haiti relief efforts, but in return, you get a whole pile of awesome gaming PDFs. There are some legitimate things in there - stuff like core rule books, supplements, fiction, and on and on.

The best thing about it is that you get Barbarians Versus essentially for free.

So, go get your copy and support the ongoing efforts to clean up and provide for the people of Haiti.

We are counting on you.

Standing Over My Dice

Well, it’s time for a simple blog on this site to post more of the one off ideas I have and link to the latest game updates.

I got plans here - plans to slap some new wizards and barbarians in this space. I also want to talk about some other projects I have cooking with other companies. And every once in a while, I will send you to a strange game that you should check out. All in the name of pure game fun.

Stay tuned.
