Ran this for a one-shot and it was really fun! I ran it in FATE Accelerate (FAE) and was able use it there with little problem! Drew the map myself, but on the GM side, love how readable everything is for where to find/describe everything. I made the first aid and fire extinguishers on post-it notes in case my players took one of them, which they did; they had fun sticking them to their character's token. I also added post-it notes as they discovered each room with the name of it. Made some playlists that I think helped with the vibes. Here they are if you want to play them when you run it! (I'm not the happiest with my fight music playlist, so just gonna list my ambiance playlists!)

General Ambiance

Creepy/Tense

Extra Creepy (damn tbh should've used this one for fight music)

Also used Elevator Hitch main them looping for rules/character creation.

If you also want to run it in FAE, here's what I did! For situation aspects, I had one that was "Power Surge", and I used "Surveillance Cameras" to have the Host spy on them through them using tech powers. I was able to use the text provided to come up with the character sheets for the Host and the Echos. Didn't fill out all 3 aspects cuz it was a oneshot but you can use what I have as a starting point. I also didn't write a stunt for the echos, but if I were to do one, it would probably be something like: strobe or flood of memories- Add a +2 when forcefully attacking during a conflict. You can also make some stunt about them trying to take your body or spreading the virus, but I never got around to wording it. I made an extra for the first aid that had to do with consequences, but I never ended up using. Tbh I could've done an extra for spreading around the virus but didn't do that either.

One of my players' high concepts was "Unwilling Office Nepo-baby," so I made her his daughter for some fun conflict! And someone played an HR lady who aired out all of Lance Gridlock's dirty secrets. So my version of Gridlock was savable since that felt more fun, but I could see a version where he's dead to be just as fun!

I have the digital ver, but I do plan to use the pocket fold version. As for fate dice, I'm highly biased as I love fate, so I love the dice! Also, worth mentioning that some public and university libraries are now offering 3D printing machines(aka for free), which is how I made my FATE dice, which could make them more accessible if people know that's an option. Tho D6 shouldn't be too bad a switch and are more accessible to people. Especially if the pocket version means you can play anywhere, d6s are the most common die people have.

WOAH! This was amazing. Idk if I've gone through all the variation of the footage but it's such a simple but effective way to creat suspense and questions

Thank you so much!!! I run for my Pride Center, so lots of new players come in and out. I have been using Matt Perkin's combat cheat sheet but I wanted to give my players something more class specific. This is exactly what I needed!

Thanks! I wasn't pressing Esc before R😅. I see about the hardware issue, thanks for responding!

Fun game! I came from insta and the art is amazing as always. The keyboard mechanic is very interesting!! My one thing is a struggle a bit with the coordination of the jumping and holding the keys, especially since I can't hold more than 2 blocks without the character not being able to move. That wouldn't be too big of an issue but you can't restart(or I don't know how to) the game, so I have to refresh the game, and start over, from the beginning. I've been stuck on level 2 since I keep messing up my jumping and the blocks fall, which ends in me soft-blocking myself since I can't restart the level. Being able to restart the level would be nice, especially in a puzzel game where it's expected for players to not get it at first. Still, seems like a cool game! I played in browser so idk how that differs from the downloaded version.

MY REACTION! LETS GO!

As a musician the skill tree killed me, too accurate. Very useful!
