Bogeymen is Released!

This week I have tied off my latest long-term project, the adaptation of Bogeymen from weekend-rough draft to professional product. Bogeymen (available as stand-alone download from this site) is one of five modules written for Ingenero, an upcoming narrative role-playing system.

I learned a lot through the production and play-test of this module, some highlights are below.

The player dynamics have a greater impact on the story than even the module itself.
When developing an art style for a piece, use something simple, reproducible and unique.
Less can be more. By providing less that's explicitly stated as part of the module, the GM is given more freedom to design the game they want to run.

I hope you choose to take a look at this, and I hope it inspires you to record and share your own modules.
