Twitter RPG Design Competition Results

And the winner is.....

BRENT NEWHALL with the following entry:

Play intelligent weasels with other beasts in forest. 13 points in Sneaky, Vicious, Persuade, Health. Beat 1d6 to succeed; 1 damage per hit

I chose this because, let's face it, playing an intelligent weasel? Who doesn't want to do that? The system is simple and usable and it even has as a damage system. You'd probably have to adjust things depending on the size of the animal but hey - there's only 140 characters to play with! Well done, Brent, a copy of my SKETCH game The League Of Seven is on it's way to you now.

A special mention goes to Allon Mureinik with this entry:

Dragon souls hiding in cat bodies. Divide 10 points between attributes: flight, fire-breath, magic. D10+Attribute vs. difficulty to succeed

Mainly because of the concept - the souls of dragons inside the bodies of cats? That's just cool on toast.

Thanks to all of you who entered!

    Jon, even by running this competition makes you look a little mad, you know.

  3. Wow, thanks very much! I'm honored. And it's a great challenge.

    So honored, in fact, it inspired me to create a one-page PDF of the system, fleshing it out into a simple but playable game. Download here:
