LotFP ... in Space!

[Finarvyn]

I just learned that Lamentations of the Flame Princess is going to have a scifi version called Machinations of the Space Princess. That's pretty much all I know about it, but here is the indiegogo link for more info:

And here's their "teaser" blurb:

Another time.

A distant galaxy.

The Orlathian Empire holds utter dominion over the known universe. Rich beyond dreams, corrupt beyond nightmares, decadent and cruel beyond measure.

Princess Madan Kaana of the House of Diamonds maintains a private, little pleasure asteroid, deep in the Scyllan Abyss where she brings her playthings to fight, die and mate for her amusement.

You are those playthings.

This is your time to die.

Can you escape the Machinations of the Space Princess?

Well ... discuss!

I don't play LotFP but I must say that Raggi has consistently thumbed his nose at the critics and nay-sayers and come out smelling like a rose. He seems to have a good eye for what will sell and then he follows through with a quality product.

I've never had that business sense, so I can't call this one. But given his track record? I'd say he has a fine chance of, once again, showing us all a thing or two about selling games.

Appears to be an adventure for LotFP, rather than a full-fledged, separate game.

Sadly this awesome-sounding module did not fund. Hopefully it will find it's way into release in some form, somehow, someday.

When I hear "LotFP in Space" I imagine the black-leather-clad, jaded astronauts of Bava's Planet of the Vampires exploring and looting the six-hundred and sixty-six dead worlds of the Empire of Duvan'Ku.

The fellow behind it was talking about doing another campaign himself to get it funded.

Just noticed that this is being illustrated by Satine Phoenix, who, ummm, I'll just pretend I don't know who she is after all...

Interesting idea... I could see adventures for this being quite similar to the movie Event Horizon.

They are trying to fund it again. The author and the artist are doing it by themselves now. It's already reached the initial goal, so the product is happening. They are trying to fund extra stuffs now.
