A Little Nudge

About the Game

This is an uplifting, encouraging TTRPG about picking and choosing a goal, then working toward it. You can play it as yourself or any fictional character you'd like, making a list of goals that person would love to solve to improve the world.

Using a deck of cards and a die, you'll work toward your goal one day at a time. The game uses a simple, flexible system for the player to choose what happened each day depending on whether it was a good or bad event and what category it falls under.

This aims to teach a person:

• That they're capable of giving any problem a nudge in the right direction.
• To overcome difficulties when working toward their goals.
• That goals aren't all-or-nothing, and that it's okay to change your goals as life comes at them!

Designer's Notes

This game was created for Hyper 1 HOUR Game Jam #19 (Changing Movements), 

I've added a Designer's Notes edition of the game! This PDF is meant to be read digitally and just dives into my thoughts, decisions, and inspirations for the game. 

Everyone who gets a copy of the game gets it as a bonus :D

The Hyper 1 HOUR Game Jam

This game was created for Hyper 1 HOUR Game Jam #19 (Changing Movements), well at least sort of... It took me far longer than an hour, but it was 100% inspired by the theme of changing movements when I saw that one of the sample uses of "movement" was "the civil rights movement."
