Useless companions. You know the ones.
Don't make it worse by making them the butt of every joke! Treat even fictional friends with respect. This micro RPG helps with that. Lovingly illustrated: https://ranarh.itch.io/useless

A one-page RPG about making dice pools, draining them, and keep going (...keeping go?)

I love making sarcastic comments. This one is about people loving their old misery more than their new freedom. You can also take it seriously and into your grimdark fantasy.

Kicking off 2026 with a #game jam: "The Gifting Flower", a #bookmark #RPG for #48WordRPGJam. I want to do more art for my stuff, and cooler presentation, so I painted... well, a flower. It's very pretty though.
The game is about a mystical flower granting you one use of an awesome power that you roll for with 1d10.
I made a thing again! Thoughts? Questions?
"Breaking News" â A lighthearted GMless 1-page RPG for 2 to 6 B-list supers and the press that covers them.
This is a "yes, and" game. Each player represents a reporter and either a super hero or villain. Reportersâunbeknownst to the public are the trickster gods of this worldâworking together to increase the network's ratings. Villains commit crimes, and heroes stop them. Every turn should aim to make the game more fun and the news more exciting.
1. Each person gets three cardsâwrite a superpower on each card, then put 'em in a hat.
2. Draw three powers and write entertaining limitations for them. Put 'em back in the hat.
3. Draw two powers.
4. Declare hero or villain. If one side is outnumbered, the smaller side gets a bonus:
⢠2:1 - get +1 to rolls or an extra power
⢠3:1 or worse - get both
5. Write the names of your characters on a card and stand it in front of you. Characters should always be referenced by name.
Powers "just work" (within their limits). Powers should always be referenced by their name and limitation.
Contested actions are settled with d6sâhighest roll determines outcome (ties go to defender).
Non-contested actions are d6 vs static difficulty (ties maintain status quo):
⢠1-2: easy
⢠3-4: difficult
⢠5-6: "impossible"
Non-contested difficulties and the truth of reporter statements should be generally agreed upon by the table.
A turn consists of a fact-establishing observation by your reporter and/or a cinematic action by your super.
The game starts when the villains decide on a crime and a reporter goes live with breaking news about it.
Turns pass to the opposing super who acted least recently.
Game ends when reporters agree it would be better for ratings to cover the Great British Bake Off.
This is a "Saturday morning cartoon" game; nobody important dies (unless they want to)âthey just limp off to fight another day.
---
Example powers, limitations:
- Telekinesis, but only works on burger.
- Invisibility, but only when no one is looking.

- Shapeshifting, but maintain mass.
Example crimes / targets:
1. Rob / Bank
2. Hijack / Train
3. Destroy / Tech Startup
4. Kidnap / Celebrity
5. Disgrace / Politician

Example liveplay:
Alice: "Hello PNW-TV 12! We're coming to you live, where we've just learned that Captain Softserveâwhose freeze ray is regularly out of orderâhas teamed up with the Burger Masterâthe teen who can telekinetically control burger with their mind, and they're in the process of hijacking the 1-line to Cap Hill! I believe we actually have someone from PNW-TV 12 *on* the train now! Over to you Bob; what's going on down there?"
Bob: "Thanks Alice! It's true, I am on the train now, and things are crazy hereâ" *CRASH* "Oh my! The hero SpeedLimit, the motion-sick speedster, has just caught up with the train and jumped in through a window!"
SpeedLimit: "Don't worry folx, I'll make sure you get there...on time đâ" [rolls a 2] 𤢠*hurkâ*
Carol: "âAaand we're cutting back in the studio where a psychic has phoned in to tell us they see a raised drawbridge in our train's future."
Are you tired of dealing with the cost of living and late-stage capitalism? Have you and your friends ever talked about buying a castle or a large plot of country land somewhere and starting your commune or collective?
Our Commune is a 24-word RPG for 2 or more players.
Quick 36-words lyric game, not made for the #36WordRPGJam because I had the idea just now.
My latest and most serious game just dropped. Make your friends laugh to win! All you need is drinks and refills to play! :D

mock-up of the cover for the game Star punks
wanted an evocative illustration because the game will only have two pages of text and no other illustration.
the fourth page will be a character sheet.
any ways hope to have the rest done later today.
still working out what will be the most stylish way to use my two pages of rules.
meant to be a one-shot version of the rules I had been developing for a campaign.

My #itchio page as been #updated, preparing the scene for releasing #ttrpg projects & #education tools.
To #celebrate, I revised the currently only #game on my profile, $wâŹat. The new version is way more presentable, though don't expect much. It's an #experimental #microRPG done for a #GameJam in a hurry that gamifies Your #workout routines. It's available for #free, check it out:
There is this hidden gem, called Brave Sparrow, described as an "alternate reality experience." If more (unrelated) players #play it, they are part of that same world. Check it:

Such a unique execution! I hoped of making something similar.
A few years ago, stumbling on the banks of Firth of Forth, I found this cool rock.
Yesterday, my brain fused the two. I think I'll make a #microRPG where the act of painting rocks & purposefully hiding them builds an "alt #reality."
