Well done! I too appreciated the humor--the name of the frog made me laugh out loud, though his predicament was tragic. Great use of the elements of the image!

Developer

Thanks! I saw my chance with the frog and knew I had to go for it.

I find the tongue-in-cheekiness super endearing. “T-section of doom” is such a fun description. Really neat little zine. I don’t know if I would call the different monsters different factions, as they, in my mind more dungeon fodder, than actors in the narrative, but maybe I am misunderstanding.

Developer

Thanks! And yeah, you're right about the factions. I felt a little weird not including a faction setting so I kinda brute-forced it.

Fun adventure idea. Really clear layout. I especially like how the crawlers who investigate more are rewarded with some help in the final boss fight. I was a bit confused that Kassex is described as a sorceror but apparently lacks any spellcasting. Not sure if I missed a not about that, but it seemed a little jarring.

Developer

Thanks so much! Definitely wanted to seed hints and clues, especially in case B'Moth or Kassex turned out too brutal. I imagined Kassex's special actions to be his 'spells' but yeah, a little confusing in retrospect.

Really like the Chemical spill table. Fun stuff.

I agree!

Thanks! Felt kinda 'weird in a fun way' to me.
