I make games about wizards and kebabs
Hi everyone, I'm Nico (he/they), but pretty much everywhere on the internet I go by FrayCebolla, I'm an amateur game designer who likes writing games about dumb shit, but mostly food-related topics since I'm a restaurant industrypilled exploited workercel.
These are the games I'm working at the moment:
- Wizard Tower: A PbtA style ttrpg about a group of wizard friends and their wacky adventures
- Döner Röyale: A card-based boardgame about having a kebab shop on a fantasy land
- Gastropunk: A dystopian skirmish wargame where people kill each other with food
- Zombie Attack at the Drive Through: A ttrpg about being a fast food worker whose workplace is suddenly attacked by zombies and must keep serving orders while trying to fight them off
- Retinue: An OSR classical fantasy game about the hirelings that adventurer crews hire for expeditions, and their adventures taking care of these needy and childish heroes
- Pochinko: A rules-lite sci-fi ttrpg about being alternate reality versions of the same guy
I'm also working with my sister on a tactical combat ttrpg about a mystical version of the Era de Oro of the Spanish Empire, but that is even more a WIP than the rest.
I've been playing roleplaying games and wargames since I was 14 years old, and I have a lot of respect and love for the medium. My favorite ttrpgs of all time are Pathfinder (both editions), Lancer and Symbaroum, but I've played pretty much all kinds of them.
On monetization of hobbies and the crushing weight of capitalism for creative individuals
All of my projects will always be pay-what-you-want since I don't believe on paying for digital content, also because I do this as a hobby and the update schedule is gonna be extremely inconsistent, I don't expect to make a living out of writing indie games, if I can buy two beers with what I make writing this will be a total success in my opinion.
I make games that I want to play first and foremost, and I want to share them with others so that they too can enjoy the same things I like. That's what being a creative is for me.
