Congratulations! This was definitely one of my favourite modules I rated during the jam, glad to see I wasn't alone. Honestly, I think it'd run great in Mothership.
Thank you so much! And yes, it should work well with Mothership. If you want something Mark of the Odd, Monolith and Screams Amongst The Stars should work as well.
congratulations on the result, a worthy winner!
Thank you!
Amazing module! I love the art and the dungeon design and premise are really great too.
Thank you!
Love the weathered graphics and layout ... and the old-school literary inspiration. Nice!
Thank you so much! I'm a huge fan of weird fiction stories, so I hope that the themes and vibes are oozing out from the adventure!
Pretty art and cool location!
Thank you so much! My partner said that it's the most difficult map she's ever drawn lol but it was worth it. Glad you like it!
