Today for Valentine's Day I have released my new physical game PDF of the tabletop roleplaying game "In Love with the Moon", a storygame of made-up science. It's pay-what-you-can right now in celebration of the Under a Bad Moon game jam being put on by Shouting Crow Games.

Fall in love with the moon, here.

Here's the skinny: Science is awesome and terrible, and so too is the moon—your destination.

The year is 1968. You are a team of scientists, crowded in an old castle where the air flows thick with LSD and there is a maze of rooms below you stocked with every scientific oddity, all for one purpose: to get you to the moon by whatever means necessary. This game is a looney race to luna. Champion your crackpot ideas, wrestle with hallucinations, confess your love to the moon, fall out of love, get weird, but above all—get to the moon!

• GMless play for 2 to 6 players.
• Diceless mechanics, except for the moon herself who is a d20.
• Hypothesized for one-shot use, but projects can carry over from session to session, if you've found sustainable funding for your research.
• Break the glass, embrace the weird, and fall...In Love with the Moon!

Check it out on it's Itch.io page.

Kaiju Kontrol is here! Released today, a physical TTRPG (in pdf form) of giant monster battles, geo-politics, and trauma. Kaiju Kontrol. 1,000 giant battle Kaiju, all different, and scattered around the world, their keys left in the ignition and no note, only a scrawl on the Kaiju tphat kind of reads “Mike”. People from all walks of life touched them to become Kontrollers. Some took over their countries, some defend their country’s borders. All are at war with each other because only one Kaiju can beat another.

See Kaiju Kontrol's Itch.io page here.

Kaiju Kontrol is a lovingly hand-crafted gonzo indie work from Radio James Games. Absolutely no generative AI had anything to do with this project, it is far too janky. This is a Sunday matinee monster movie of TTRPGs, with all the fun of people in rubber suits, roaring, stomping around on buildings.

Saddle up for the ride of your life! Bettin' Bullets is a tumbleweed of a TTRPG about a generation of cowpokes in a small frontier town in the late 1800s, showing off and showing each other up, and rallying together to overcome dangers. Conflict resolution is all diceless—who needs dice? You've got bullets. You bet your life on the bullets themselves here in Bettin’ Bullets.

This book includes:

• Gunslingin’ and horse wranglin'
• Lonesome campfire songs
• All the fixins of cowboy life—riding, homesteading, and a sense of wonder for the natural world
• Rivalry between cowboys of a plain immature nature, such as who has the better looking horse
• Sassy writin' and some pretty rough and tumble hand-drawn cowboy art

There's a few games out there that're weird west, and this isn't one of them. This is primarily a game about community, you see, and overcoming adversity in an environment that's sometimes mighty harsh. Check it out, now on Itch.io, right over yonder: https://panjumanju.itch.io/bettin-bullets, if you'd be so kind. Community copies will roll in over time.

I've made a new game, a completely vanilla cowboy and western game named Bettin' Bullets. It's a pretty gonzo, indie little thing—it's diceless, where conflict resolution involves betting bullets themselves to see your way through the wild, wild west.
