Nice work. As I wrote in my "review" here on the rating, the rules are clean and cool, while maybe the second page is a little bit wasted, bringing only slightly more detail to the primary table in the previous page.
I'd surely prefer more mechanics (advancements, equip...), or more inspirations (maybe tables with NPCs, monsters etc.).
Anyway, great work Zadmar. I didn't know you had a page here on itch.io. A big hug from Italy (LordLance here, from the times on Savage Worlds community forum).
Hi Andrea, I remember you from the Savage Worlds forums :)
Arcane Agents is my submission for the One-Page RPG Jam 2023, and the rules of the jam are that the product must be fully playable with just the first page. I'm allowed to use the second page for optional material such as advice and examples, but I cannot include additional rules or mechanics.
When I wrote my first one-page RPG (for the One-Page RPG Jam 2020) it was initially just a single side, but I received feedback that some people struggled to come up with ideas for adventures using just the adventure generator, so I added a second page with examples for each table entry. This proved popular and effective -- people could use the examples as written or just for inspiration, and it allowed me to add more depth to the setting.
I plan to release some larger Tricube Tales products in the future, but my 47 one-page RPGs all follow the same general design and layout, and I think it would confuse existing customers if I started changing it now.
Oh, wow, that "One-Page RpG" it's really merciless 😁 Damn, you can't even use the other side of that single page! Anyway, jokes aside, I understand. Hard to do better than that (or deeper). Kudos.
