"Every time you make an Action Roll, describe what happens, and feel free to roleplay as much as you like." @alyssawejebe.bsky.social talks to Tomas Gimenez Rioja about his TTRPG Rush & Punch! which pits you against a wide variety of giant creatures: buff.ly/FgbMGy7

We just created the Giratina Encounter as a Mission for @rush-and-punch.bsky.social and i couldn't be happier with what it will turn out to be. It's going to be the final mission for the Capes of Kaiju City campaign after all, so it HAD to be off epic proportions

Rush & Punch! is incredible and also FREE, while being a project I poured some of my best design work. For that alone, and because you are going to have a blast both playing and running it, you should check it out

Do you want to know a bit about how Rush & Punch! plays out? Let me show you all the moving pieces in action. Everything you do gives you something. You can't miss or fail at what you say you are doing. ✨Everything you describe happens✨ GET IT NOW FOR FREE 👇👇 rpg-trader.com/products/812...
Rush and Punch's layout, showcasing two examples of playExample of Play
The red phone is ringing, and the Mayor says the City is under attack by some sort of
monstrous tree! The players head out into the fray to defend the City and its people.
The EM describes an immense tree moving towards the city center and how the city's
plants have come to life under its control, then reads the Entity’s Reposition section and any
Special Abilities it grants to players.
Each player adds a detail to the scene and describes their Hero’s arrival. The Shield
mentions terrified citizens trapped in a root-bound bus, while the Controller thinks there
should be a park nearby being overrun by out-of-control plants that she’s scouting from the
skies. The Power and the Pep each add details, such as the presence of a botanical garden in
the park, and that the tree’s goal is probably to put down roots there.
The EM notices a few convenient connections and weaves all this together into a full
scene: The immense tree is creeping from the suburbs to the City Park, where a bus full of
schoolkids was on a field trip to the famous botanical gardens. Some of them made it back to
the bus, but the others are trapped by the exotic plants that have gone from carnivorous to
man-eating! Each Hero gains 3 Hope, the Entity gains 4 Dread, and the first Round begins.Round Coins and Rounds
* Each Hero has a Round Coin with an
active and inactive side.
* Combat starts with all Round Coins
inactive.
* When a Hero with an inactive Round
Coin makes an Action Roll, they
activate their Round Coin.
EXAMPLE OF PLAY
* When all the Round Coins are
activated, the Round ends, and all the
coins are immediately deactivated.
* Each time your Round Coin is flipped,
either to its active or inactive side, you
gain 1 Hope.
* At the end of the Round, the Entity
gains Dread equal to the number of
Heroes.

An example of play follows
The Shield asks if he can go first, and everyone agrees. He says he will distract the roots
attacking the bus, making an Action Roll. He rolls a  ⬜ on his three Hero Dice, and
describes the Hero rushing in to distract the roots.
The Shield gains the effect of his Action Power (gaining Barrier [1]), and flips his Round
Coin to gain 1 Hope. He decides to spend 3 Hope on the Taunt ability, and another 2 on the
Shield Bash ability. He declares his Hero has pivoted to hacking at the tree’s base with the
edge of his shield, drawing its ire and doing some damage. The EM describes the sticky
sap bleeding from the hacked-at roots and the giant tree’s angry groan, and the Shield
announces the end of his actions. After each player’s Hero has acted, all the Round Coins are
flipped back to their starting position: each Hero gains another Hope, and the Entity gains a
Dread for each Hero.

A long time in the making, but we've finally got our quickstart out! It's got 4 of our planned 8 Archetypes and enough monsters and character options to run a solid one-shot. Plus, you can get access to the rest of the Capes of Kaiju City setting's playtest material through our discord!

I had the chance to playtest this game and it is EPIC. New school games want to try something innovative? Give it a shot! Old School gamers want to bust out your FATE/FUDGE Dice and try them out in a new system? Give it a shot! Rush & Punch has something for TTRPGers of all generations.

Dig was the first person to try the earliest prototype of the game, and she told us she saw great potential in it from the get-go, which we continued to drag all the way to the end. There is no better person (especially considering she is a pro at playtesting) to tell you about the growth of R&P!

For 3 years and by going through dozens of iterations and playtests, Scott and I managed to create a system that has many subsystems that work together like well-oiled machinery Not only it gives you freedom in a way very few TTRPGs achieve, but it also limits you in a way that improves storytelling

Rush & Punch does a great job of turning combat into an engine for big dramatic stories. If you love shounen anime fights or big damn heroes doing stuff in action movies, you should give this quickstart a try.
