Games by Julian Kay
They're all very special to me, and I try and do something odd and different with each game I release, whether it's dice making up the ship of a crew, flicking pennies to do cool skate tricks, or flipping a tarot card to find out the next twist in your office monster comedy! I've also gone by "ARBco" or "Alien Rope Burn", and you can also find  my work developing Mutants in the Now, a retromodern mutant animal RPG,Mutants in the Next, its first expansion, or take a look at Back to the Rifter, my Rifts RPG commentary with @ewencluney. I'm Julian Kay, role-playing game designer, writer, and freelancer!  This is where you'll find my cool lil' games. Lastly, I was the main writer and developer for Grand Chronicle for Level 99 Games, and also contributed to the character guides for Devastation of Indines and many other new BattleCON revisions! Just look at all these games.
