That, in an unexpected, animated mash-up, is Upwind. Upwind is a narrative style RPG set in a strange alternate world of floating island nations, flying sailing ships, long lost technology, wild elemental powers, looming war and forgotten legacies. Upwind is powered by the Q-system, an original stakes-based, playing […]

This week, I wanted to share with you a new project I’ve been working […]
