    1. I find the new magic system is easier and more 'player friendly'. Also, I didn't want to create everything from vaccum, just take the OSR spell, convert it and rename the spell then you get a 'new' spell!

      stay tune, bro!

  2. Love the art, as always with your games.

    This magic system is very clear and fast-forward, I think it's great. Savage Flower Kingdom magic was weird for me because the difficulty roll seamed arbitrary for each spell, so making up new one seamed uneasy. OSR comptability is great ofc.
