What started out as a question – “why aren’t video games converted to a table top format?” – has developed now into a more than one-hundred page book with an effort from people from all walks of life. The goal was to take a beloved video game franchise and convert it into a role-playing table top game. Meticulously writing out the game’s history and mythos, as well as developing a unique system (centered around a d12) that captures the spirit of the video game, the Suikoden Tabletop Game developed into a full project. It is a personal project I still work on and enjoy very much.
Written initially and maintained in Microsoft Word, I learned InDesign to give the book a more clean and professional look.
I have arranged play-testers and gotten feedback from them to help craft a better book.
