Heya folks,
Welp, finished my submission for the Mapemounde2019 game jam. I present to you One Trillion Years, a game about humanity's survival in the far future. It's live now on itch.io for $5.
In a few million years our solar system will be uninhabitable. Earth will have suffered any number of calamities, both natural and man made. In 1 billion years our sun will begin to die, expanding and consuming the terrestrial planets and reducing Mars and Earth to barren cinders. A few billion years after that, our galaxy will collide with the Andromeda galaxy. And one trillion years from now the entire universe will begin to die as every star burns through its fuel and all light is extinguished.
We cannot survive here. For humanity to continue we will need to leave our solar system, our galaxy, and eventually this universe.
One Trillion Years is a roleplaying game about humanity’s survival. You will create a human diaspora, a collection of people who have left Earth in an effort to survive as the universe disintegrates. You’ll lead them through trillions of years of space and time, play star-faring guilds as they address different obstacles, and inhabit your own characters from the far future.
Players: 1-4
Playtime: 1-2 hours
Requires a deck of playing cards & drawing on a map
All $5+ patrons should get access to the game for free. I'll be sending you all a link where you can get a copy so long as you have an itch.io account. Let me know if there are any issues there.
I'v also revamped my patreon slightly. I'm saying goodbye to the Forgotten Folios rewards. I just can't afford to put those mailing together anymore, and honestly I need to leave that failed project behind me. I'm proud of the stories I made, but I'd like to forge ahead and make new things and new mistakes.
Instead $5 patrons and up get access to my little RPGs like One Trillion Years, and the upcoming Spooky Action at a Distance. $10 patrons get access to larger RPGs like Neon Black, which should see an update in a month or two. Pretty much no changes to the $1 tier.
I'll be posting updates about Spooky Action at a Distance soon, and after that's done I'm back to work on Neon Black.
