Say hi and find your next favourite TTRPG with us, from Sad Space Cowboys with Orbital Blues to Anti-Capitalist Demon hunting with Mad as Hell, we promise our games will want to get a group together and start PLAYING.
Legend tells if you journey to stand 2-886 at UK Games Expo, an erudite sage will recite you tales of a great battle, of the Gods' vengeful fury, of doomed heroes and, of their suffering and misfortune on a laborious, ill-fated journey home...
In case you missed it, over the last month we’ve been running Orbital Blues Month, a cross-collaboration and celebration of your favourite sad space western Orbital Blues. We’re now in the last 48 hours of this amazing campaign and, thanks to the support of over 2500 backers, all six projects are fully funded and smashing through their stretch goals.
Explore The Campaign
Our contribution to Orbital Blues Month is OUTLAWS X CORPORATIONS, a new double-sided sourcebook for Orbital Blues jam packed with a variety of new NPCs, locations, crews to populate the Outlaw Galaxy with.
Outlaws X Corporations is a “tête-bêche” book, a unique printing format where two companion halves are bound together to create a double ended book. One half features the rebellious Outlaws who lurk in the dusty backstreets and distant space stations, the other features the profit-hungry Corporations who dominate the shiny boardrooms and neon billboards across the galaxy.
Don't miss out - Back Now!
But Orbital Blues Month is much bigger than just us, there are five other fantastic projects from some of the most wanted Outlaws in the TTRPG publishing space.
A Fistful of Stars by Adam Stations and Kayla Dice: An interwoven series of adventures set on an interstellar train line. Are you here to explore the Galaxy in style, in a desperate attempt to make ends meet, or is there something bigger afoot?Â
Formula Infiniti from PlusOneEXP: A high-octane space racing adventure complete with bespoke mechanics for racing, new character options and a star-system of new planets to explore.Â
Jupiter in Eb Minor by Lone Archivist: A planet-hopping adventure following the mysterious disappearance of a beloved songstress.
Vaporwave Wanderlust by Grahame Turner: A high-tech data heist in a polygon-filled, VR powered network.Â
PARAMOUR by Josh Dormansk and Chris Airiau: A “one last job” adventure filled with emotional turmoil, lost love and getting mixed up with the wrong people. Written by Josh Dormanski (Vaulted Pyramid)

What is ORBITAL BLUES?
ORBITAL BLUES is a roleplaying game of SAD SPACE COWBOYS
It is an intergalactic age of cowboys, bandits and bleeding-heart outlaws.Â
Of hyper-capitalism, corporate freighters and a cut-throat gig economy.
Together with your bucket-of-bolts ship and your rag-tag crew, run from your past and chase towards your future.
Play ORBITAL BLUES for:
Rules-light gameplay that centres character-driven narrative.
In-universe art and layout that grounds you in this dustbowl galaxy.
“Sad for XP” mechanics, where roleplaying is the only way to level up.
An experience infused with retro music, cassette futurism and shows like Cowboy Bebop and Firefly.
At SoulMuppet we’re strong believers of a free quickstart to allow folks to experience our games quickly and with as low an entry barrier as possible. The Quickstart for Orbital Blues comes with six premade characters and contains all the rules you need to spend 3-5 sessions exploring the dusty Sutler System.

“Something very bad happened to you a very long time ago: you died and it hurt. You’re cursed. You’re still here and you couldn’t just stay
"“Something very bad happened to you a very long time ago: you died and it hurt.
You’re cursed. You’re still here and you couldn’t just stay dead. You’re definitely not in heaven, but there’s a pretty good chance this could be hell.
Your heart has basically stopped. You don’t need to eat. Your skin is clammy. Your touch is cold as ice. You have to remember to breathe, to blink, to smile. Those are things people do? Right? It’ll be alright. Everything will be okay. You can get it together. You just have to find the right place and the right people and it will all work out. There are other dead people just like you. They’re suffering in just the same way you are.
The quickest way to forget is blood: someone else’s blood. Your touch won’t be as cold as ice after you drink another person dry. You’ll feel a little more human. Your heart will beat like it’s meant to.
Take a sip. Cut loose. It’ll be alright.
When you’re in the moment, you can almost remember what it meant to feel alive.”
📣This April, Orbital Blues Month launches on BackerKit!
An amazing team of collaborators are bringing a host of vibrantly different projects, from new adventures and factions, to mechanics and audio dramas and more.
SoulMuppet's contribution is Outlaws X Corporations, written by OB co-creators Sam and Josh, a rogues’ gallery of scumbags on both sides of the law packed inside a unique "tête-bêche" style hardcover book!
PLUS: Each project comes with a unique track from BE/HOLD, back multiple projects and you’ll get access to a limited edition cassette!

It has come to the attention of SoulMuppet Incorporated that a crew of the galaxy's most wanted Outlaws are planning something BIG this coming April, known to this bureau as ORBITAL BLUES MONTH.Â
Please follow and monitor this link and if you spot any suspicious activities report them immediately to your local department. We’re unaware of the precise location, but cryptic clues suggest the involvement of BACKERKIT.Â
What's more, the legendary Outlaws known as the “Orbital Blues Trio” (Sleney. Clark and Cox) are back and at large. Our intelligence suggests they are planning to release detailed information on the various OUTLAWS X CORPORATIONS in the known galaxy in some kind of printed physical form involving “head and tail”.Â
If such information were released, it would expose the known locations, crew and assets of not only our galaxy's brightest and finest multi-million credit companies, but also TOP SECRET information on the whereabouts and misdeeds of many of the most devious Outlaws this side of the Frontier Galaxy.
We are aware of a number of the criminal collaborators of the OB Trio in their ambitious plans, including PlusOneXP, Superdillin, Understory Games, STATIONS, Josh Dormanski and Lone Archivist.
These Outlaws are WANTED AND DANGEROUS! All Spacers should follow them keenly. Bounty Hunters will be rewarded for more information that leads to the capture of this rogues gallery of no-gooders and scoundrels.Â
More Outlaws are set to join this alliance of criminals over the next few weeks, in the lead up to the explosive date they have warned their heist will commence: the 1st April 2026.
We also have reason to believe that the rogue musician known as BE/HOLD has once again colluded with each of these dangerous Outlaws. Our intelligence suggests he is working on a mastermind project called CASSETTE EP.Â
SoulMuppet Incorporated cannot be held liable for spacers inserting cassettes of unknown origin to your vessel’s tape player, due to risks of “bangers”.Â
(Orbital Blues Month launches 1st April 2026. 7 Projects are already live and on the collection, with more coming. Check out the pages for info on these products, including Outlaws X Corporations from the team at SoulMuppet. If you want to submit your own crowdfunding project for Orbital Blues month, drop us an email to [email protected]).Â
