Hi everyone and thanks to TheRPGSite for giving indie developers a platform to showcase their projects!
Tales of the Kytin Age is a fantasy adventure role-playing game set in earth's distant future, where sprawling fungi-forests and desolate badlands cover a world almost destroyed by the folly of mankind. Our civilisation is gone, remembered only by a few.
The project launches on Kickstarter today, October 25th!

In this new world, the insects have long been the dominant life-form. They have evolved into fearsome giant monsters. A few, such as the dog-sized aphid and the large common ant, have been domesticated, but many others prowl the wilds in search of prey, their vast bulks crushing field, forest, and foe.

Mankind has substantially changed over several millennia under clouds of toxic storms and the poisoned legacies of our disregard for the natural world. There are now four distinct forms of human being; the physically-altered neotype, the metamorph - able to warp its' own body at a cellular level, the psychically powerful telempath and the insectile - a person who shares both human and insect DNA.

Players assume the roles of refugees fleeing a small island that is now splitting apart and sinking beneath the ocean. These refugees are disinterested in ancient history - their only goal is to survive and reach the mainland to begin new lives - attempting to regain their former status or using the opportunity to change their destinies completely. Theirs is a time of facing the unknown, of unlimited possibilities, an age of daring and adventure.
Theirs is the Kytin Age!

Hi Dan,
Thank you for the invite! I've passed along your message and all the links to Geoff Gray, the writer and designer of Tales of the Kytin Age. As the heart and soul of the project, he'll be the best person to present the game on the platform you've provided.
