Lots and lots of updates


Where to start... big thanks to all who have downloaded and provided feedback on Space Aces so far! Active development continues as the system expands and gets refined to be smoother and smoother. What has resulted, IMHO, is a rules-lite game system that blends PBTA emergent stories, OSR design methodologies, and FKR principles.

  • In an effort to both reduce dice modifier crunchiness and enhance story telling potential, the Core Game card has been updated with all-new Ship rules for both upgrading your ship and taking damage. Now with more upgrades and asploding consoles.
  • The Gizmos & Gadgets module has been updated for more robust item utility potential. I can't wait to use my Holo-Boomerang that Asplodes Perception
  • In true OSR fashion the Star Ruins & Space Hulks module has also been updated with branching paths and a looming threat your party will have to deal with.
  • All-new Massive Mechs & Mega Monsters v1 modules have also been added so now you can build and upgrade the mech of your dreams while pacifying giant kaiju threats. If you are adventuring with a party, I hope you will particularly enjoy the "Interlock Activation" ability that allows you to combine your mechs into one MEGA MECH a la Voltron / Power Rangers / Transformers.
  • All files have been updated with a new font for the dice which I hope looks cooler because I really don't want to manually have to change it all back...

In the works right now is the Galactic Guidebook planetary generation card that lets you generate planets, species, cultures, points of interest, and plot hooks to explore, all in a campy Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy style, and on a single business card. I'm pretty excited about it.

Send over any feedback or ideas you have. I hope the system provides some inspiration and brings somejoy.

Be safe, stay healthy, and keep playing pretend! Adventure Awaits!
