DarkBad RPG
Are you tired of Tabletop RPGs with good design, good rules, and good ethics? Darkbad  is a 20 page, rules lite fantasy roleplaying game inspired by the OSR and the flotsam floating around it. It is ugly, cheap, and lazy. A true callback to simpler times. Anti-features: Strict 1:1 TimekeepingSimple combat system where death is fast and grimAlways-on initiative systemFamiliar skill rolls with a minimalist twistEndless room for improvement Neighborly disclosure: Darkbad contains some machine generated images. You will know them when you see them. Neighborly disclosure the second: this is a shitpost. Please don't take it seriously.
