Happy to report that the NUNA Quickstart has made it halfway to the 50 sales needed for a Bronze medal on DriveThru RPG. If you haven't gotten a copy yet, the link to the Quickstart and free player characters preview (which has more than enough downloads for Bronze but is free so doesn't count) are below.

As I've stated here, my next project is Giri-Ninjou, a radically different game from NUNA.

Giri means Duty while Ninjou means Humanity. From my 22 years living in Japan and becoming a published Japan Studies researcher there, I am always disappointed by the misrepresentation of Japan by outsiders. Films with Japanese characters always talk about 'honour', but this is largely an Orientalist trope and Japanese are more likely to base their actions on Giri and Ninjou.
Here is my concept for Giri-Ninjou:
Rules light
GMless
Narrative
Ruthlessly faithful to Japanese society & culture, NOT D&D in funny hats
On Kickstarter by year's end
