Hi Jeff, a couple of months ago I released a new sci-fi RPG which was successfully kickstarted earlier this year – Starguild: Space Opera Noir. About 190 backers have copies, and I’ve had great feedback from them, but as a single person outfit with his first publication, I’ve not been able to get that much exposure for it.
I’ve included a link to the Drive Thru Rpg page for it in the ‘website’ link in this comment, although if you think it would be interesting enough to have a look at in more detail, I’d happily send you a complimentary pdf.
Other information about it is on the starguildrpg.com website too.
I hope you don’t mind me posting this, but you did ask if there were other lesser known RPGs which might benefit from some love 🙂
Cheers
Hi Alex,
By all means, shoot me an email to [email protected] and I’d be happy to peek at Star Guild.
