A one-page RPG about flirting while piloting a mechanized war machine · By JP Bergamo

A pretty slick L&F-inspired game!

This is an elegant twist on the Lasers & Feelings formula, and gives it just enough extra 'game' to mix things up. 

I particularly like the Keepsake mechanics -- both for awarding them and the fact that you need to spend -all- of them to clear Heat -- and the Emotional Encounters table, which gives me EXACTLY the vibes I want from a game like this.

Honorable mentions to the mech 'sketches' with the snail tank.

Thank you so much for the positive feedback on the game! I'm thrilled to hear you enjoy it!

This game originally started off as a L&F reskin, but very quickly turned into something more. I adore the simplicity of L&F, but I wanted just a little bit more mechanics for the players to interact with and think about. 

I spent way too much time revising and fine-tuning the Emotional Encounters and the Main Objective to try and create encounters that were evocative and varied. So I'm glad to hear those are a highlight!

Gonna have to tell a friend you liked the snail mech. The first playtest I ran of the game a player had her mech be a snail and I knew I had to include it in the game somehow haha
