fingerprints is my self-published, GM-full, map-making storygame of superpowers (though not necessarily superheroes).
fingerprints is a map-making game, with a die-drop system where the word or map element your die lands on affects your narration, as well as the number rolled on your die. While each player has their own character, each player can also create and act as elements on the map. The game is intended to evoke more serious superhero stories, such the Authority, Concrete, Powers, or the Watchmen.
I published fingerprints in 2007, and it's seen a lot of play, so I'm not treating this as a playtest. It's a pretty weird little game (at least, in 2007 it was pretty weird!), but it's also very rules-light. We'll be creating characters together at the table.
If you're interested in the game, but this time slot doesn't work for you, please let me know! I'd be happy to change slots to accommodate interested players.

Re: SAT-01 fingerprints: GM-full supers, needs 2-4 players
Read the Actual Play you linked, it sounds like a really interesting game! Reminded me a bit of Worm by Wildbow, where you gradually build up to effect larger and larger scales. (https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2011/06/11/1-1/)
I'd be interested in this slot or another one, the only thing I've committed to so far is doing the Lottery!

Glad you're interested, Alex! I've heard fingerprints compared to Worm before, I should really check that out!
The other slot I was considering is SUN 01, if that would work better.

I'm flexible so far, so we can wait for someone else who needs one or the other, I guess?

Re: SAT-01 fingerprints: GM-full supers (1/4), or SUN-01?
Signed up for another game SUN 01, so if we could keep this on Sat that would be ideal.

Saturday it is! Happy to have you Sara. I'll be playing as well, so three players is great. Although a couple more would be fine too.
