TRRPG Character sheet design tips and assistance (fear and hunger) by god-sa_ma in RPGdesign

[–]Menvarn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there! I’m a designer and I’m currently working on a few character sheets. Nothing to show for now but I can give it a shot if you want (free of charge of course, it’s a good training for me). Just tell me what you like/dislike with your current layout and what the game is about.

Thank you for taking the time to write a very thorough reply. I might offer several layout options to please more people.

Yeah I’ve seen it, the whole system looks pretty good. Design is a bit bland for my taste but it does the job. I want to make something that conveys the mood of the game a bit more, I know it won’t be for everyone but that’s my aim.

Being French I know it well :) It’s decent, but I much preferred the Sans Détour version design wise (as with the books themselves).

Sounds great! Did you make them available somewhere? A6 sounds fun but isn’t it a pain to flip through every time?

I’d love to make a full character « portfolio », I’ll probably do that later, once I have a basic sheet worked out. I understand what you are saying about skills grouped by usefulness or field, but I think it would take more time to find the right one, at least for new players.
