RPG Playtest Teams

March 13, 2013

Hi all, despite setbacks, progress has been consistent progress on many bfg projects, both in design and in illustration. Two roleplaying games are being created simultaneously; the first being Kinfolk which we have discussed before and which is currently available for download on this site., while the other is the first setting for a rules medium game with a strong consistent ruleset. We would like to put together playtest teams for both games, and it seems time to start including the community we feel will ultimately be our greatest asset. If you would like to be a part of a playtest team, please contact justinnicholillustration at g mail dot com, and let us know which game you are interested in playtesting. Please only respond to this request if you are serious about running one or more playtest sessions, are willing to post actual play reports on our forums, and to have your fellow players answer questions regarding their impressions of the game.

Additionally, check out these illustrations for our upcoming rules medium system, and two wips for Kinfolk. Enjoy!

Blurring the line between player and designer is what will allow us to compete with the quality of proprietary gaming products.
