Essence System Reference Document by Monkeyslunch

Make a game in 3 minutes

Never made a game?Make one right now. In 3 minutes.It'll even fit in a tweet. Essence is as simple as it gets. It gets to the core of what a game is and reminds you of the silly things we all did as kids. Blow bubbles. Be a cat. Four different formats are provided as templates, but I swear it's dead simple. Make one now, then you can say you have a game under your belt. This SRD is 6 pages in length, including the cover, and a lot of that is me being verbose.
