It’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism. Nowhere is this more visible than on the shelves of game shops, where our choices for the future are dystopia, apocalypse, and space. Fully Automated is an open source tabletop RPG project developing a free game meant to provide for solarpunk what Dungeons & Dragons provides for fantasy. It's now in beta version 0.3 and we're looking to build our community of play testers and contributors!

Fully Automated! Solarpunk tabletop RPG

Gameplay: Fully Automated can be used with whatever your favorite system is. But for the best experience, we’ve designed a simple 2d10 system for roleplay built specifically for a world of interdependence and care rather than the logic of individualist domination that underlies most RPGs. For combat, Fully Automated uses a custom card-based system that’s fast and fun, and designed with defense and preservation of life in mind.

Characters: Who do you want to be? A healer? Hacker? Negotiator? Athlete? Customize from dozens of augmentations and abilities or play as one of 12 unique pre-made characters such as a Capoeira monk and a streetwise bike courier.

World Guide: You don’t have to study the economy, governance, and legal structure of Fully Automated to play it. But if you’re curious or looking for inspiration for your own writing, it’s all there. Learn about everything from food production to housing, along with a history that tells how we got from here to there. There's no one vision of solarpunk, but whatever your taste you can find things to use in our grounded, hard-sci-fi lore set one hundred years in the future.

Plus: playable stories! Fully Automated! Campaign 1- Regulation has a full three-mission campaign with 16+ hours of content to demonstrate what thrilling adventures look like within a world of fully automated luxury communism.

Very cool! Sorry to join so late but I'll check out the discord and see if there's anywhere I can help.
