you can hear that game below if you want to check it out!

IHtHG doesn't *have* to be that kind of intenseโ€”i've seen a game that was elementary schoolers bickering in the hallway before trying out for the solo part in a school playโ€”but it can be, and i have SUCH fondness for ruben & i's game

if you've ever heard me pitch I Have the High Ground in person, you've heard me recount the finale of this session on @theneoncaster.bsky.social's stream, in which i won & my victory was getting shot thru the heart & dying instantly b/c ruben's character cried over my body so i had the moral victory

I played this with Jess when it first released and it facilitated the most emotionally intense session of roleplay I've ever felt. it was heartbreaking and great. Highly recommendddd

This game RULES and you should absolutely buy it.

Save 33% on it right now or just wait a few days and buy it at full price. It's 100% worth it.

WOW!!! i cannot believe it has been THREE YEARS since the release of I Have the High Ground. that's wild. i've been doing this for over 3 years???? truly hasn't sunk in that it's been that long.

100%! Tons of con-goers are always excited to playtest games. (And for what itโ€™s worth, there are *also* incredibly playtesting focused conventions like Metatopia.) Also, excited to hear this unknown third party might be assembling the bones of a TTRPGโ€ฆ

We did it. Thank you so, so, SO much.
Wow. Wow. $87,661 dollars. 1406 backers. I am absolutely blown away. Thank you all so much for the huge outpouring of support and excitement that made this project possible. I have used every bit of fuel I had left in the hyperdrive to power through the last few days, so this is going to be a short update, but from the bottom of my bleeding heart: thank you. I'm going to take a short break and be back by Wednesday to send out any of the things that need to be sent out immediately post-campaign, and reply to any messages sent throughout this frantic last day. In the meantime, again, thank you, and may the Space guide your hands. -Jess

AGENT DOSSIER: Serj

Serj did the gorgeous original art for the galactic 2e cover, and even though David is doing the covers + combined book interiors, we REALLY wanted to have Serj back, so I'm SO excited to share that they will be illustrating the inside of Look Up to the Stars!

The trailer does such an incredible job capturing the tone of the 2 games & the excitement w/ which theyre played. It's a hard task doing two games with very different tones in one video, and I sent over a VERY rough script, and Leandro's editing stitched all of that together into something AMAZING.

AGENT DOSSIER: Leandro Fiori

If you haven't watched the Galactic & Going Rogue animated trailer, you NEED to. Leandro truly blew me out of the water when I received the first draft. He went above & beyond even what I had dreamed of for it. I can't tell you how grateful I am for his expertise.
