Seems like only ***checks watch*** two months ago that I was predicting that Onyx Sky<\/em> would top out at 65,000 words and around 300 pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the last two months, things have accelerated on Onyx Sky<\/em>. The words and pages have skyrocketed as I’ve been able to concentrate on filling out the game’s content now that the rules are pretty stable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the moment, the content for Onyx Sky <\/em>looks like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • 180 page PDF \/ 360 page print book<\/li>
  • Full color illustrations throughout<\/li>
  • Five main sections: Characters, Game Rules, Game Mastering, Campaign Guide, Adversaries<\/li>
  • 24 general skills and 54 martial skills<\/li>
  • 110 encounter and adventure seeds<\/li>
  • 71 adversaries<\/li>
  • 86,000 words<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    I recently realized that I started work on Onyx Sky <\/em>in April 2019. Looking back through my old PDF exports, Forge Engine<\/em> took me 5 years to complete!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    So I gave myself a goal of completing Onyx Sky <\/em>in 2 years, which means I’m trying to tie this game up before the end of April. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Wish me luck! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
