Thanks so much joining the TTRPGs for Palestine itch charity bundle to support Medical Aid for Palestinians! When you have a moment, can you please approve your submission/s for the bundle here before it goes live in June: https://itch.io/bundle/2295/edit
Asking again, realized I got no answer a year ago.
I am new to TTRPG. It seems this information is not included on a lot of game descriptions on itch.io. Maybe it’s obvious to most people, but not to me!
How many players does this game support? (please clarify if it includes or excludes the GM)
My apologies; some complications in my personal life made it a bit difficult to get back to this page for a while.
So, full disclosure, this is the first game I’ve made, as part of a game jam. I’ve been looking for support from folks to build it out further and playtest it properly, but haven’t had much success on that front. As such, what I can tell you is limited.
1) the game was designed for a GM and anywhere from 1 player to, well, as many as you want - though I find more than 8 would probably be difficult to manage.
2) Average play time is…unknown at this time due to lack of sufficient testing.
3) I suppose solo play is doable, but there is no specific mode built in to support that (yet). The player would essentially have to fill both a GM and player-character role in that instance.
Once again, I apologize for not getting back to you the first time. That’s bad form on my part, and not the way I really want to support my work and the people interested in it.
If you have any additional questions, I’ll be checking this page a lot more often as I try to get back to working on these projects more consistently.
I haven't had a chance to look through the game properly, but I do have a small bit of constructive feedback on the layout:
I would recommend that you align the text Left. Centered text looks kind of messy unless it's done for a particular reason, and can lead to issues with readability. Titles look fine centered, though.
I'd also recommend you remove the white border from around the text, and instead either lighten the background, or add a big light box over the entire page.
Ah! Understood. I appreciate the feedback. I’ll try and get those changes made ASAP, and I’ll let you know when the updated files are posted.
It’s those formatting issues that are really giving me headaches as a new designer. It’s always a relief when I get a heads up on what ‘reads’ well and what doesn’t.
It's a constant learning experience! I'd be happy to take another look at it when you've updated it, or answer any other design-related questions you might have ouo/
I’ve updated the visuals for this game; for previous purchasers who wish to upgrade (and why wouldn’t you?) I have a set of keys that should cover everyone, and if needed I’ll set up more. Thank you for your patience.
Secondly, I am aware that the font and text color has brought up some serious readability issues; you have my apologies, and I promise to fix this in a forthcoming update. I will post here and try to notify everyone as soon as that is ready.
Thank you again and I hope that apart from the amateur-hour layout issues you enjoy the gameplay of Rebellion Occupied Earth! Please feel free to send feedback and constructive criticism, I welcome the chance to learn.

To all purchasers: first off, thanks so much!
