What A Year

The Year Ends

1.6 is going live! Find it here.

The text of the game is going to be heading off to our editor now but we have now until around the end of March or so to playtest and fuck with the game, find out more weirdo interactions and missed clarifications and weird playfeels during the game, which we can then apply before the game goes into its final layout, which I'm very excited for. So playing the game is going to be our major goal.

I'll be taking a break from designing GB (and hopefully going to run and play it) for now (after converting all the Patreon stuff!) but I will be beginning to start work on Flowers Over Dalumat (which I'm excited for) and perhaps finally finish Princess Murders The Hero's next update.

Additionally, I might be able to work on the Third-Party License (taking inspiration from Lancer's take on it) for the new rules so that it's official and all that.

Finally, Backerkit is going live around January, in consideration of all the Holiday hype and expenses!

Other things that have changed...

  • Bookmarks now added
  • Added missing explanation on ranges.
  • Forced movement is now mostly two dimensional except for Pull and Throw, which abides by the Verticality clause
  • fixed more formatting errors I caught
  • Flower Balyan Enlightenment lets you summon a Horde now
  • Balancing and clarifications across the board.
  • Clarified adding Merit and Demerit for more than 1 Violence Die.
  • Added formatting tweaks and fixed errors and typos as suggested.
  • Changed HP to Posture to reflect that its a summation of composure, vigor, focus, parrying ability, and constitution instead of hit points.
  • POS is now PARry.
  • Added the Horde Template to let you recreate wuxia scenes (and with the reframing of HP as POS, damage against your Kadungganan might be visualized as your Kadungganan’s defenses being worn down instead of actual wear and tear).
  • Moved the Solo Play Rules to the Divination section of the game.
  • Dead Enemies are now Resistant to Physical Attacks.
  • Added a little mechanic for Currents
  • Strong Winds now has a 50% chance of Juggling flying fighters.
  • Added a sidebar that says you keep your Enlightenments and Liberations even if you retrain a Signature Technique out.

That's all for now. Thank you everyone so much. We're on track to glory! Have a good holidays!
