Out Of Lasers
A downloadable supa dupa gaem
YOU ARE THE SPACE PIRATES AND YOUR CAPTAIN IS DEAD.
You were a pack of partners in crime who went on a heist on the planet of Mercury, but it went terribly wrong. Now you have no loot, have to fly through the entire Solar system, the space police are after you, one of you is a snitch, your captain who’s callsign was Mole has been shot dead and, worst of all, your hijacked spaceship RAPTOR happens to be a flying bucket.
It's a hack of Lasers & Feelings. I got inspired by Out Of Dodge TTRPG (even though I never played it), and compared the ideas of both games. So for L&F - you are in space. And for OOD - everything's going to hell.
----------
The game requires 4 to 6 players (you may do 3 players, but without police agent), including the GM. It usually is a one-shot, but may evolve into a two-shot. All the rules are one-paged, but may require some explanations to fully understand them (which I could not fit in one page), thus are at the bottom of this page.
Есть версия на русском. Если вы не знаете английского, то читайте уже непосредственно правила (они бесплатные). Либо скопируйте веееееесь этот текст и вбейте в DeepL (он лучше всего переводит). В шестом абзаце пояснения к правилам для гей-мастеров (их стоит почитать).
This game is going to be tested soon, so some changes might occur. There is a PDF version of it, but it originally was made in pptx, so the fonts have changed in the way I can't fix. Also, I never played neither OOD or L&D, but myself I'm very experienced in TTRPGs. I'll be thankful if you donate 4 American rubles of yours, this way I could check out the OOD. Oh, and there are Easter eggs for both of the games. Have fun!

A few tips for GMs, who have already read the rules:
1) The snitch's role is more about betraying the team in the most awkward moment. If they can't talk to or text GM secretly, just make sure to uncover when it feels like it. Tell them that.
2) The game is set so the Raptor breaks every time the players visit a planet - GM should use it as a motive for them to look for repair materials or mechanics or even the entire modules for the ship on the planets they visit. Also a motive for robbing banks - because this stuff costs a lot.
3) If you're not Russian, then you should know that Blyobiki is usually referred to some gooey or slime-like creatures. It's sort of a meme.
4) A few words about planets: Earth is all about resorts because it has a lot of things that relate to humans' culture and history - aliens really like it. The president on Mars is a famous cyborg Elun Mosk. Uranus was sold to Blyobiks due to the perfect life conditions for them. Neptune is designed to be a final boss among planets.
5) GM may add any funny difficulty related to using Universal gadget, such as it having a terrible interface, it being a lite version or playing ads mid-work.
6) Don't overthink with intergalactic currencies - use Space credits. Base the prices off Neptune's Intergalactic Gate entry fee - 100 credits, which is slightly expensive.
