Hi, I love your take on the Fate system! I've always found a bit difficult to grasp that, even if an Aspect would give you an advantage in a situation, if you didn't have any Fate Points then it was irrelevant for your roll. Giving them a +1 with no cost seems like an elegant solution for this. I'll probably take that rule to any Fate games I GM.
The Character Sheet has the "Now" fate points with a 3 there, I'm guessing that should be blank? Also, I think it would be easier for us to just have the character sheet directly as a PDF, instead of a zip file.
Congrats on a game well done, it's concise, easy to follow and has a great presentation all along 👍🏻
Thank you very, very much for the kind words! I'm happy you found Fate Stories to be to your liking – if you're keen for more, drop me a follow! I'm planning on at least 2 games based on Fate Stories (called Fate Stories Experiences) which will be similarly concise, but focus both mechanically and thematically on the premise of the game!
The "Now" field is correct - as you start the game with 3 Fate Points, your starting sheet should have 3 in Start and 3 in Now.
You can grab the character sheet as a PDF only in the "Download Demo" section on Itch! Hope this helps!
Ah, I see! Yeah, I'd recommend erasing the digital guides/numbers from the fields before printing and then pencilling the numbers in, so you can adjust your points as needed!
This is an excellent, concise and Aspect-focused implementation of Fate. I've always been a fan of aspects and I'm glad to see a version of the game that really puts their importance front and center.
I will probably be using this the next time I bring Fate to the table.
Wow, the free copies ran out really quickly. I would really like to purchase a free copy of your game, as I like FATE too much and it seems to me at a glance that you propose several optimized solutions and this catches my attention. thank you for your attention.

Thanks again!
Yes, but then when I spend a point I still have a big printed 3 on that field. It should be blank so I can write whatever points I have left, right?

Hello Writey, how are you?

Hi Romani8! I've added 2 more Community Copies to the reward pool! :)
Let me know what you think of the game once you've got a chance to play it
Wow, I wasn't fast enough. I ended up not getting a copy. I will wait for the next opportunity.
Just added one for you now! ;)
but can I access this copy somewhere specific here on Itch.io, or is it open in the copy for the community? If so, I lost again.
More copies have been added!
