Genuinely genuinely if you run a Star Wars TTRPG, or want to run an AP, and want to try a different system from the norm... THIS IS THE ONE!

We are now just $500 away from $40,000!!! That'd be 400% funded in 4 days!!! You all are amazing, and it makes me so happy to see folks be so excited about it. Does anyone want to help us hit that $40,000 milestone?

I just backed Galactic & Going Rogue: Two TTRPGs of War Among the Stars by @jumpgategames.itch.io Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gal...

The voice in this trailer sounds rather familiar, Admiral 🤔 I’m so excited for Galactic & Going Rogue! I did the VA for the trailer and seeing it with animation is so cool. Check it and the Kickstarter out now!

So excited to play Galactic on stream - I remember how much I enjoyed @merelymatt.bsky.social facilitating it on Merely Roleplayers many years ago! Highly recommend checking out the Kickstarter for Galactic by @rileyrethal.bsky.social & Going Rogue by @jessfrom.online! tinyurl.com/GalacticandG...

🚨Galactic Two-Shot Livestream 🚨 Join us for a Livestream of Galactic: A game of rebellion and relationships over on @oneshotnetwork.bsky.social Twitch! 📆When: Wed 28th May & 4th June 🕢Time: 7:30pm Central Time 💻Where: twitch.tv/oneshotrpg #actualplay #ttrpg #rpg #actualplay #WAIR #oneshotnetwork

QRP your spies/rogues! 🕵️ This is a kind of spy...it's even one could argue, a Rogue. One Rogue, perhaps? Hmm. Something about that's not right...

Ahhhhh this looks cool as hell

appreciating that @rowanzeoli.bsky.social indulged my inner academic & let me quote Benjamin & Le Guin and also 2 texts i was reading at the time of designing Going Rogue that were influential on it (Picturing Power by @arielleangel.bsky.social in @jewishcurrents.bsky.social + Blessed is the Flame)

Wow, this looks fantastic! If you love Rogue One or Andor, maybe check this out!

it's rly gratifying to have jess explicitly call back to us talking abt this! to my memory, it was a very classic-but-difficult development conversation of "hey: here's something your game is saying. it's ok if you want it to say that, but if you don't, it's important to change it"

This interview became way more timely in the course of a literal day. Good game, good thoughts, good interview.

i so appreciate @rowanzeoli.bsky.social giving me the chance to speak about my thoughts on Going Rogue as political project it's been interesting & challenging trying to be thoughtful about how i approach (& market) this game in that respect, & getting to talk its *limitations* was actually v nice

In the second installment of Rascal's interview with @jumpgategames.itch.io, designer Jess Levine dives deep into the politics of Going Rogue. "Resistance is worth it even when the cause is impossible, because the act of resisting provides us with a feeling of humanity that is irreplaceable."

What are people saying about Galactic & Going Rogue? @emcandon.bsky.social, author of the novel Star Wars: Ronin, said she "literally could have used it as a study guide for Ronin," & she "immediately brought it to nearly every play group I know"! Check it out: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gal...

Morning folks! We're officially just $15k from our 2nd stretch goal: having award-winning designer @jmstar.bsky.social, creator of Fiasco, Night Witches, & more, write for our setting supplement! Jason literally wrote a LARP abt COINTELPROing a left org & I want his take on The Intelligence SO bad.

Less than $50k away from unlocking my supplement story!

@hauntedtable.bsky.social my first thought

Aaah! I could not be more excited for this!

"I AM YOUR HOST...DUKE GAREN OLES. AND TONIGHT, I AM GIVING YOU A PREVIEW, OF WHAT IS TO COME. FROM STAR TO STAR, FROM WORLD TO WORLD, PROJECT ORCHESTRION WILL CHANGE...EVERYTHING."

it’s actually pretty funny that i’m in two bob double books. what’s going on there

AAAAAND THAT'S 500 BACKERS IN 30 HOURS LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYBODY!!! WOW!!!!!!

We are 8 backers away from the big 500, in just our first 2 days! That's SO exciting!! Who wants to help us hit that milestone?

@aavoigt.bsky.social & @rowanzeoli.bsky.social now both know the pains of asking me interview questions in a written format (and both did an excellent job cutting in down into something digestible, the sign of a great interviewer)

This is one of the coolest things ever And yes I keep saying that cause HAVE YOU SEEN THIS SHIT

I'm incredibly grateful to @rowanzeoli.bsky.social for the fantastic questions she sent me, then for taking the absolute novel I sent in response & turning it into a tightly-edited 2 part interview. It was such an honor to try & tackle these topics, and I hope people will give it a read!

I LOVE to see an animated trailer! This rules!

In the first of a two part interview, Rascal sat down with @jumpgategames.itch.io to chat about Galactic and Going Rogue, the failures of Star Wars as a revolutionary story, and reclaiming beloved worlds from their corporate owners

a pretty absurd amount of effort went into this trailer. over a hundred man-hours from Leandro, Cris, David, Drak, myself and more. it was so new & so delightful to write for a visual medium, bit of a dream come true. im VERY proud of the result & i'd love if people gave it a look—and maybe a like!
