Fractured Birthday TTRPG Game Jam (tiny prizes!)

[radiantfracture]

Okay, I'm going to do it!

Fractured Birthday TTRPG Game Jam
Runs Nov 1 - Dec 22
Results released Dec 31

It's my birthday. I would like there to be more small weird TTRPGs (Table-Top Role-Playing Games) in the world. Make my birthday wish come true. Create a TTRPG on the theme of fracture, breakage, and/or repair. Win a cup of coffee!

This jam comes with a tiny prize! Up to 3 (three) of my fave games will receive $10 (Canadian) so that the designer can buy themselves a congratulatory coffee.

I may take a crack at this. I don't know about a whole booklet but I'm interested in those ultra-compact one page RPG's people come up with.

One-page is awesome -- "booklet" was meant to indicate small, so I will change the wording!
