INTERSTITIAL 2E PLAYBOOK JAM

After seeing several Interstitial 2e playbooks pop up here and there,  I have decided to make an attempt to gather them all in one spot, and further from that- to convince more people to make them!

This is a jam focused around making new Playbooks for Interstitial, which are all based on archtypes you would see in media like "The Discarded", "The Other",  or "The Chosen", or are more meta books like "The Roleplayer" or "The Memory".  We also introduced the idea of Everything is Interstitial- playbooks that represent whole other games that take the mechanics of Interstitial for a real spin.

If you have never game designed before, now is a great chance to start!   If you have, it's a fun exercise to try and  compress your game down to it's basics.

I look forward to seeing what you make!

i think the near-extinction of people making fun, deep and/or unique interactive text-based browser games, projects and stories is catastrophic to the internet. i'm talking pre-itch.io era, nothing against it.

there are a lot of fun ones listed here and here but for the most part, they were made years ago and are now a dying breed. i get why. there's no money in it. factoring in the cost of web hosting and servers, it probably costs money. it's just sad that it's a dying art form.

anyway, here's some of my favorite browser-based interactive projects and games, if you're into that kind of thing. 90% of them are on the lists that i linked above.

A Better World - create an alternate history timeline

Alter Ego - abandonware birth-to-death life simulator game

Seedship - text-based game about colonizing a new planet

Sandboxels or ThisIsSand - free-falling sand physics games

Little Alchemy 2 - combine various elements to make new ones

Infinite Craft - kind of the same as Little Alchemy

ZenGM - simulate sports

Tamajoji - browser-based tamagotchi

IFDB - interactive fiction database (text adventure games)

Written Realms - more text adventure games with a user interface

The Cafe & Diner - mystery game

The New Campaign Trail - US presidential campaign game

Money Simulator - simulate financial decisions

Genesis - text-based adventure/fantasy game

Level 13 - text-based science fiction adventure game

Miniconomy - player driven economy game

Checkbox Olympics - games involving clicking checkboxes

BrantSteele.net - game show and Hunger Games simulators

Murder Games - fight to the death simulator by Orteil

Cookie Clicker - different but felt weird not including it. by Orteil.

if you're ever thinking about making a niche project that only a select number of individuals will be nerdy enough to enjoy, keep in mind i've been playing some of these games off and on for 20~ years (Alter Ego, for example). quite literally a lifetime of replayability.

IT'S TIME!

The Premiere Fanfic & Crossover TTRPG, the game that tells you multifandom rp was cool and you were right to do it- INTERSTITIAL 2E IS OUT NOW!

The digital copy comes with several playbooks by me, and some wonderful extra books from amazing designers that need to be SEEN to be BELIEVED.

Interstitial is one of my favorite things I create- If you like crossover fiction, the power of fanwork, or the connections between characters as the main function of the game- CHECK IT OUT
