A downloadable game

Light Side is a fantasy in space that attempts to capture the magic of hope and optimism that is found in the popular Star Wars franchise by George Lucas. This is a game about the most unlikely allies coming together to fight for all that is good in the Galaxy Far Far Away against the most sinister evils. Whether it’s the Trade Federation, the Empire, or the First Order threatening the Galaxy, there has always been a Republic, a Rebellion, or… ahem… a New Republic who has risen to oppose them.

This system is Powered By the Apocalypse. It uses 2d6 for most dice rolls. When you fail a roll you will mark Dark Side, and falling to the dark side will be a constant threat in this game. 

Non-Jedi Playbooks:
The Bounty Hunter, The Droid, The General, The Scoundrel, The Scout, The Soldier
Jedi Playbooks
The Learner, The Master, The Outcast

This game is a work in progress. If you play, please let me know how your games go. Your feedback is welcome and encouraged, as I will continue to work on this game. Feel free to contact me at ian@maudlingames.com.

Current Goals: 
- collect feedback
- finish GM section
- Design a downtime mechanic similar to Blades in the Dark where you can spend credits to upgrade gear, clear Dark Side, etc.
- work on second batch of playbooks (Non-Jedi: The Imp, The Loreseeker, The Politician; Jedi: The Sentinel, The Dyad, The Redeemed)
- Ship playbooks?
