I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.

A Cold Day in Hell ...

#1 Post by tibbius »

... a post-tech, post-apocalyptic, weird-science sort of hellscape, that is.

https://tibbius.itch.io/blood-sky <- the rules are free to view in the screenshots.

Anyone interested in rolling up a Goon and taking on the Day After the Last Day?

I love playtesting and I love supporting small press efforts particularly by people I know. :) I'll plunk down my $3 when I get a chance (probably tomorrow) and would be glad to help out with a test run. I usually enjoy post-apocolyptic settings best.

Oh - hey, sorry I just saw this - just wanted to reiterate, the rules are free in the screenshots, it is entirely optional to purchase.

Let's wait for one or two more players before we launch this.

I have been away from the the forums for a while but think that I will be able to make my way back to it soon. I would be interested in supporting this effort as well!

I updated the rules page to make it easier to read.

The setup

You all live in an abandoned cell block tower, overlooking The Sea, which is a semi-sentient low-viscosity lifeform that spans half the globe. Lately the Sea has been growing, and now Crissy, your landlord, says it's time to move everyone to higher ground before the entrance gets covered.

What do you do?

Incident: Addiction (1B, tent)
Goal: Acceptance (1S, pet)
Starting Items: 1 Brawling Weapon, Curative Elixir, Tool Kit
