An irreverent, tacky, wacky Sci-Fi tabletop RPG with a heavy 80s flair. Core rules polished, standard enemy stat blocks, expanded GM section, tuned for heroic nonsense over survival grind.

CHARACTER SHEET
Developer of tabletop games, specialised in game mechanics and world-building. I build core rules, economy loops, and PC creation rules; and, thanks to my background as a Graphic Designer, I also handle layout and editing. I'm a passionate UI and UX designer too, and I like to do some vibe-coding on the side for fun.

* I have not been officially diagnosed with autism and ADHD. However, my wife, who is a doctor (consultant) who diagnoses ADHD and autism professionally, has observed several traits over the past decade that would suggest I am pretty neurodivergent. I'm waiting for a formal [ADHD] assessment, but after years of learning about ADHD and autism, I very much identify with both conditions.
