About

Journey to the top of the mountain in desperate hope of stopping the storm that has destroyed your way of life.

This game is a digital interpretation of the Powered by the Apocalypse movement, using tabletop role-playing game design elements popularized by Vincent and Meg Baker's Apocalypse World

The story is designed to evoke the style of Robert E. Howard's Conan stories. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think.

This game was created for Crossroads Jam 2024 with the theme "Severe Weather."

This game is free software and is licensed under the GNU General Public License. The source code can be found at https://github.com/doctor-g/crossroads-jam-2024.

This web-based game may not work on macOS and iOS devices due to complications of HTML exporting in Godot 4.2. We hope that the upcoming 4.3 release will fix this. If so, I'll update the build for Apple users.

This is really neat!! I've been getting into tabletop solo roleplaying games and have even made a small paper journaling game.  I'll have to check out this system.  I love the way the stats change organically with your choices, and I had to almost go with the stats rather than what I actually wanted to do. 

Thanks for making and sharing this!

Nice work. Had me worrying at a time when I started loosing my points xD. It's a neat idea to make players think on their actions. 
If a may add a suggestion for the future, I would like an option for showing text without the animation, or to set the speed of the animation. Thank you.

Thanks for checking it out!

I ran out of time for a full options menu, but text animation control would be the first thing in there. Note that you can click/tap the text to skip the animation.
