Soul & Void
A downloadable game
You are wandering Bugs from distant lands, seeking sanctuary in the tunnels of Chrysalith. An Army of Red Ants has laid waste to your homes, and marches ever closer. Only the enigmatic Blue Emperor, residing in his pleasure palace deep below the surface, may provide aid. Delve into the depths to uncover salvation—or certain doom.

I love this game! I'm already making characters and locking my friends in my basement for us to play. I really wish it had a kind of adventure generator table, though, like most L&F hacks have, but I see how you already put extensive work on your layout, itens, and the character sheet. Great job!
Hi, thank you for your kind feedback! I'll likely publish a single-page "mini campaign" in the near future in lieu of random tables (possibly also containing some, it's still very much WIP)
Hi! Oh, that sounds awesome! In the meantime, I kind of made a table + worldbuilding for the Chrysalith. I'd love to post it on itch.io or at least send it to you, if that's cool with you!
hi!! this is such a cool hack, I can't wait to run it. it caught my eye cos of its style, flavour and the devilishly clean layout. as a serial notetaker I also really appreciate the amount of space dedicated to notes on the character sheet. fantastic work!!
rules question for Void Soul: do you have to roll exactly your number on all 3 dice? or just one, but you only get Void Soul if you rolled 3 dice?
Hi, thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it!
The original Lasers & Feelings rules state that rolling the exact number on any die results in a special effect. However, I find this to occur way too often (1 out of 6 rolls is a bit much to give players "special insight"), so I opted to instead word it so that it only happens if all three dice (or more, if one gets extra dice through some effect) land on the exact number. This reduces the chance significantly, but will provide a much higher impact if it occurs. Feel free to home-brew it to work like the original rules though, if that suits your style better :)
