Hello, dear backers and friends! We made it to the end of the year and, as promised, here's the printer-friendly version of Equinox! It still charts in at fifty pages (which was a pleasingly symmetrical number for me) but will definitely help save on costs if you want to print your own personal physical copy.

Speaking of which, as you may already know, I was planning on launching a Kickstarter for a professionally printed Equinox next year. Kickstarter's aggravating announcement of blockchain adaptation has certainly put a damper on my plans. While I figure out what to do next, I'll still be working with images and layouts to add full color illustrations to the interior of Equinox, a process that will likely involve more writing, too (I know, I can't help myself!) That said, I'm still very much an amateur when it comes to visual design -- as the attached image of my attempt to straighten page margins on my desktop PC will show, lol -- so progress will likely take several months. Regardless, the finalized digital files will always be free to existing backers here on itch.io.

And if you're in the mood to try something new as this year wanes and the next one begins, check out my latest game, Unreality/Strictness, a single-page storytelling RPG for 1-2 players. It's free through January 8th, after which it will go back to being $3 again. I'm hoping to work on expanding on Unreality/Strictness into a bigger game + SRD in Fall '22 but the basic game is completely playable as is, and very accessible to people new to roleplaying.

Finally, thanks so much to all of you for being so encouraging to a nascent game designer in this otherwise stressful year of 2021. I appreciate all the support and kindness you've given me, and hope my games provide you joy. Hopefully, 2022 will bring us even better things!
