SIGNAL//r021
A downloadable epistolary game
SIGNAL//r021 is a two-player high-society mecha-pilot letter-writing game designed for people who want to build world-setting details and character backgrounds as they play. It is designed to be supplemental to other systems that have a similar enough tone, and has a system reference document for designers who want to make it fit systems with different tones. It also produces tarot cards that are specific to the relationship between the characters which can then be used as cards in a tarot-based system. Lastly, it provides a good framework for people to practice their communication skills! I thought about communication a lot while writing the SIGNAL system, and it's heavily influenced by the dynamics of how good communication works IRL. I hope it can be of some help to people who either struggle with communication, or don't realise their own weaknesses with it.
Acknowledgements go out to The Wretched by Chris Bissette, and Good Society by Hayley G (particularly the AP on OneShotRPG), for a lot of inspiration.
Example of Play (available to read in its entirety in the screenshots, in case you don't want to buy the whole game) made in collaboration with Eva Liisa Sepp.
