Monkeys Took My Jetpack #106: Fowl Play

Happy Thanksgiving, for those in the States!

And for everyone else, happy Gratitude Day! (Okay, I just made that up as far as I know, but I stand by it. There can’t be too much gratitude in the world.)

I know this is short, I hope it is sweet, and I hope you enjoy this no-frills, pretty-much-spur-of-the-moment Thanksgiving one-shot we’ve got for you today. This is a time for gratitude, and I know I speak for all of the Jetpackless when I say we are so very thankful to all of you listeners who continue to … listen. I’m also thankful to Pincale Entertainment Group for putting out a system like Savage Worlds, where we were able to do a decent job playing it, even without having looked at the rules in months. Yes, I know there were mistakes. Hell, I think we were supposed to give our PCs Edges, and we just completely spaced over that, but a fun time was had by all, and at the end of the day, that’s what matters.

Okay, enough typing. I gotta get this uploaded, grab a quick shower, and head out for feasting, fun and frivolity! I wish you all three of the same on this wonderful day of thankfulness.

…and enjoy!

Monkeys Took My Jetpack #104: Fratboys Vs. The Chrono-Closet!

Huya folks!

It’s a short, but hopefully still sweet, issue of MTMJ this week, because we didn’t start recording till after character creation. Still, we had a lot of flying-by-the-seat-of-our-pants fun in this session, and I think that comes through. So, I give you…

Monkeys Took My Jetpack #100: Reunion!

It’s been twelve years in the making, and here it finally is!

MONKEYS TOOK MY JETPACK #100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, I realize that I made the podcast with surprise in mind, and that these show notes will pretty much mess that whole idea up. Still, I think promoting of these people’s work far outweighs in importance the few seconds of “Oh! Wow!” you’d get from being totally surprised. If total surprise means that much to you, stop reading this, listen to the podcast, and then come back. We’ll wait.

Still waiting.

And still waiting.

Waiting some more.

Okay, I think we’re about done waiting now.

Okay, glad you’re back.

So here are links to works being done by the participants in this here 100th issue:

So go forth…

…and enjoy!

Monkeys Took My Jetpack #103: Justice, Part 2

Howdy, folks!

This is waaaaaaay overdue, and I don’t have time to do my usual job on these show-notes. I ask you to go to the show notes for MTMJ#102 for links, because they’re exactly the same as this one.

Except, of course, for this download link.

Enjoy!

Monkeys Took My Jetpack #102: Justice, Part 1

Howdy, y’all.

We’re back again, and we’re back with Everywhen, that game of fast-paced, pulpy goodness.

Enjoy this, the first part of a two-part story. I envisioned it as having much more physical action than it did, but there’s some great character intraction here, so less action does not equal boring!

Even though I neglected to mention this in the podcast itself, I do want to acknowledge the book
Return of the Lazy Dungeon Master. This is not D&D, but I did use five of the seven steps outlined to create your scenario in the creation of this adventure. (The other two were pretty fantasy-game-specific.) As someone who struggles with plot development, I found the steps and advice presented in that book invaluable!

Feel free to comment on this, or any other issue, via our Facebook page.

Enjoy!

Monkeys Took My Jetpack #99: Half-Baked, Part 2

Hi, gang!

Here we are, with the conclusion of our Stranger Stuff Christmas in July adventure!

Hope you’re having a great Christmas in July, should you choose to celebrate it—and if you don’t, thank you so much for indulging MTMJ’s acknowledgment of what can probably best be described as a quasi-holiday. And the “quasi” aspect is why I haven’t gone all-out with Christmas carols, or some of the more … shall wa say, inspired … choices I like to work into Christmas-themed issues, such as MTMJ#5.

The Game: Stranger Stuff, from Fat Goblin Games.

The System: TinyD6, from Gallant Knight Games.
The Supplement: Holiday Wish Book
The Download Link: Here.

Merry Christmas.

And enjoy!

Monkeys Took My Jetpack #98: Half-Baked

merry christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In july.

I’d completely spaced on Christmas in July till I was getting ready to post last week’s issue. Luckily, I had a Christmas adventure from last December that was only sorta Christmas-themed, which makes it perfect for the weirdly-timed Christmas-in-July.

In this issue, to coincide with Christmas in July, along with a certain Netflix series whose fourth season has just wrapped, we’re playing Stranger Stuff, using the TinyD6 system, from Fat Goblin Games. I took this adventure from the Holiday Wish Book supplement. I highly encourage you to check these out. The TinyD6 system is the epitome of rules-lite, and still incredibly functional. We will definitely be returning to TinyD6 in general, and Stranger Stuff in particular.

Stop reading and start listening. The fun and holiday cheer are about to begin!

Enjoy!
