Inspirations
While every game that I've played has influenced the direction of Sol-Siders, the following games were the most substantial and recognizable inspirations:
- Fate for its Aspects and meta-currency
- Apocalypse World for its degrees of success and game principles
- Legends in the Mist for its blending of the prior two with elegance
- Torchbearer for its Conditions ladder
- Index Card RPG for its DIY ethos that encouraged me to start designing games
