i've finished the first playtest version of my queer mecha ttrpg, STARCROSS! it uses a rock-paper-scissors style "conflict deck" as the mechanical core of a system full of heart and danger, driving the player characters inexorably towards the resolution they're all fighting for. its blend of mecha action and desperate ideological conflict is heavily inspired by Heaven Will Be Mine, Mobile Suit Gundam, Macross, and Code Geass. if all that sounds interesting to you, please dm me or send me an ask for a free copy of the playtest edition! i would absolutely love to hear people's thoughts on the game at this stage, especially if you're willing to test it out yourself ^^

[nechronica]

STARCROSS has a new version on the horizon and more playtests being arranged, as we move closer to release - if you're interested in testing this game out and helping to make it the best it can be, please let me know!

here's an excerpt from the example of play in the rulebook, to give you an idea of how the game plays:

fly dangerously, pilots.

um actually there's nothing wrong with letting cats be outdoor pets. your cat is depressed locked inside forever. it's animal abuse. let it outside. more cats should be let outside more often. especially overnight.

Look I don't really care for AI. I'm scared about the increasing over-reliance on tools like chatgpt and Ai assist that repeatedly give flawed or false information, I reject the promise of AI writers and actors that might infect mainstream art. But like...y'all need to change the way you look at this stuff for real. So much popular anti-AI language is so abstracted from any material reality and human truth, making up slurs for Ai bots like that's a normal thing to do, wantonly accusing artists of using Ai like a witch hunt, and talking about the human element of art supplanted by AI in very Christian terms, calling it "sacred" or coming from the soul. You don't have to like AI, but I really encourage you to examine how you feel about it and what it's been making you say. Cause it's apparently making you say ethnic slurs

[lakemojave]

Should've known this post would've conjured people defending their right to repurpose real life racist pejoratives to talk about chatbots or whatever. Like is that not crazy to anybody else? That so many white liberals are frothing at the mouth to find a socially acceptable reason to put racial slurs on a t shirt at Spencer's?? I'm not even making this up somebody in the tags saw that shit in person what the fuck are we doing anymore

Gundam fans will be like “Bandai we need an MG of this Mobile Suit!!” and the suit will be called “Pēnits Kùmmer” and have appeared in one panel of a side manga that’s never been translated from Japanese. Then you look up Pēnits Kùmmer and it’s like the sickest fucking mecha design you’ve ever seen

the problem with fantasyposting on here is the amount of people who try to "um actually" you on the basis that your post doesn't comply with the rules/mechanics/worldbuilding of dungeons and dragons
