Dystopian TTRPG Oceania 2084 Kickstarter update


Hi everybody,

I thought it would be cool to gather all the various interviews, reviews, and video materials that this campaign has yielded so far. But before that, a quick update on the project as a whole! I am working away on the visual design of the book, soon I will be ready to share some more preview pages! Mika is working on the many illustrations that will make the Surplus Edition really stand out.

We now have entered into the second half of the campaign and the project is 27 % funded, I still believe that we can reach the goal in the remaining weeks of the campaign. Let's make sure, together, that this game can end up in your hands as soon as possible! 

I will host two introductory sessions for the game, one on Discord on the 2nd of May and one IRL in a game shop called Miniature Metropolis in Vendelsö, Stockholm on the 5th of May. Join me for any of these sessions to get your first characters created and to get some help getting your own campaign up and running. They will be a kind of guided session zero for all the participants.

But now, let's list the videos!

Firstly; the mood trailer. It is a trailer designed to specifically portray the aesthetic of the game.


And then, my designer's talk, where I discuss the game from a behind-the-scenes perspective:


Mildra the Gaming Monk interviewed me about the game:


Then, "Grim Jim", gave the game a "bad review". His perspective on what roleplaying games are and should be does not align. He did not like the game or its way of dealing with politics, and I am not surprised, since he does not like when games try to take responsibility for their possible impacts, such as through safety tools. 


The latest interview is from the podcast No Dice Unrolled, in it we focused on the intended gaming experience and the politics behind and within the game:


Coming up I have an interview scheduled with A-radio Berlin, an anarchist radio station from Berlin (no shit :) ). It is going to be a blast. 

And, I still haven't found the time to record the talk I gave at a student union last week. It is in the production pipeline! Soon!

Oh, and here is a link to the curated spotify list that I made for the game: 


Remember, spread the word, rally your friends, and let's rewrite history together. The resistance starts here, and it starts with you. Share the link to the kickstarter, talking about the game with your friends, and discuss it in your Discord servers.

I also want to invite you to the Jocher Symbolic Systems discord server!
