DayTrippers

	Coming in 2016: Golden Age Adventures COMING IN 2016...
	DayTrippers - Live Game 12 Dec 2015 On 12 Dec, Tod Foley ran an exhibition game of DayTrippers for the Rolling Boxcars blog, authored by Keith Mageau. In this 3+ hour game, characters played by Keith Mageau, Tesla Ranger and Lloyd Gyan risked their fictional lives, appearing in the top-rated surreality show of 2115: *HyperSurvive!* Here's the video.
	DayTrippers Core Rules - the RollingBoxcars Review Keith Mageau has written a detailed review of the DayTrippers Core Rules over at RollingBoxcars.com. He says the game "drips and oozes sci-fi" and that it "leaves lots of room for creative storytelling and character development". Check out the rest of the review here.
	The DayTrippers GameMasters Guide - a review by David Guyll David Guyll, co-creator of A Sundered World, has written a review of the DayTrippers GameMasters Guide on his blog, Points of Light. He and co-author Melissa Fisher do seem to be quite pleased with the Generators and narrative structure systems.
	Framework Discussion on Misdirected Mark In the Nov 4 Misdirected Mark podcast, Phil and Chris talked about adventure frameworks and gave a nod to the DayTrippers Core Rules. Sounds like they were impressed with the shared mission design rules, and they also talked a bit about the scenario framework in the collab/narr version of the game. I can't wait until they read the DayTrippers GameMasters Guide and blow their misdirected minds! Mwahaha! http://misdirectedmark.com/mmp180-frameworks/

	Genealogy of DayTrippers Nothing is without its influences, and DayTrippers has had many of those. For the curious, here is a handy graphic that identifies the game's ludological sources. [click here for larger version]

Mini-Review & Dream Characters

Submitted by webtech on Tue, 07/07/2015 - 23:13

Over at A Kingdom Is..., Abstract Machine has written a short non-review of DayTrippers, and created three highly atypical characters for your perusal. This is a great test of the flexibility of the DayTrippers Character Building rules, and I have to say, I'd run any of these characters! It's possible to imagine a DayTrippers session (or a whole campaign!) for each of them...

Online Mission Generation System

Submitted by Tod on Fri, 06/26/2015 - 13:10

While working on the DayTrippers GameMasters Guide, I put together an online version of the mission generation system to test the generators in combination. Now I'm sharing it with you. This script (click link below) generates a random Mission, and if required by that Mission, it also generates a random Star, a Planet, a Location and a Lifeform. Infinite worlds await your exploration!

Here are some of the new things in the upcoming POD release of the DayTrippers GameMasters Guide:

DayTrippers and the OSR

Submitted by webtech on Sat, 05/23/2015 - 21:59

I've been asked to explain how the surreal sci-fi RPG DayTrippers - with its collaborative/interpretive action resolution system and narrative arc model - can be considered "OSR". Certainly those things don't sound very "old-school". Indeed, the action resolution system in DayTrippers is based on a Narrativist technique, and the whole idea of working within a narrative arc is more Modern than Trad. At first glance, these things might make DayTrippers seem decidedly "new-school". That's especially true when we consider the Core Rules alone.

DayTrippers Planet Generator - A Hot Item?

Submitted by webtech on Sat, 05/16/2015 - 09:30

Apparently it is! The Little Planet Generator That Could has made it into the "Hottest Titles" category at Drivethru/RPGnow. It seems lots of people suddenly want to create lots of planets! While I would like to think this spike has something to do with DayTrippers, I suspect it has a lot more to do with James Spahn's White Star. - TF

Generator Generates a Review

Submitted by webtech on Fri, 05/15/2015 - 14:21

The DayTrippers Planet Generator has been reviewed at FollowMeAndDie. Unless I missed something in a periodic ego search, this would be the first review of any DayTrippers material to be published online. :-) - TF
