Greetings Metanthropes, 

 

We proudly present to you our very first project, that will be launching on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter on the 13th of February – Metanthropes: Introductory Zine. Metanthropes is a new Tabletop Roleplaying Game (TTRPG) and this campaign will be the best way for everyone to be introduced to our game. Zines are small, indie TTRPGs and each February, Kickstarter is supporting their rise. 

 

Metanthropes is more than just a project for us, it is the heart of our passion, a journey five years in the making and truly a culmination of over two decades of storytelling. This is our love letter to TTRPGs – the game we've always yearned to see on the bookshelf, the stories we've longed to tell. 

 

Embody your role as a Metanthrope (Meta-human) – a being of limitless potential, gifted with extraordinary abilities, tethered to the vibrancy of human passions. Embark on a journey of self-discovery, navigating through new worlds, mind-bending Dimensions, and a Multiverse woven with intertwining Timelines. 

 


 

This campaign will include everything required to enjoy the Metanthropes Introductory experience: a Zine with all the information for new players, a prelude to the setting, the rules, 10 pre-made characters to choose from, as well as a one-shot session to enter a new cosmos. Besides the Zine (in both digital & physical form), the campaign will also offer Early Access to our upcoming Premium Modules for the Foundry Virtual Tabletop platform, as well as other exclusive limited rewards. 

 

As we unveil our vision over the course of this campaign, we kindly ask you to share this with any friends that might be interested and click the ‘Notify on Launch’ button on our pre-launch page. Support the work of a new indie company making their first steps and help turn our dreams into reality!  

 

We will gladly answer any questions that you might have. 

 

Thank you for your consideration.

Greetings, Metanthropes!

 

I have exciting news to share, something that has been a long time coming. As of yesterday, Legitamine Games is no longer just a game design team and a community centered around it. We are now officially a company!

 


 

This transition enables us to further pursue our dreams of venturing into the TTRPG industry. We're thrilled to offer you our own products and services for Metanthropes, collaborate with amazing creatives worldwide, and turn our ideas into reality!

 

Our story has just begun, and the next step is coming this February with "Metanthropes: Introductory Zine".

 

We can't wait to share our journey with you and thank you for your enthusiasm, feedback, and support throughout our initial years.

 

Oh, and one more thing:

Evolution of RPGs interview

Greetings Metanthropes Community,

 

As December dawns, bringing an end to the remarkable year of 2023, we're eager to share some exciting news and developments with you.

 

Announcing Metanthropes: Introductory Zine

 

This February, we are thrilled to participate in Zine Quest 2024. For those unfamiliar, a Zine (shortened from magazine) represents a small budget TTRPG project. Over the past five years, Kickstarter's Zine Quest has played a pivotal role in elevating TTRPG Zines every February.

 

Our introductory Zine will serve as a comprehensive gateway into the Metanthropes TTRPG universe. It features:

The core rules of Metanthropes TTRPG.


A selection of 10 meticulously crafted pre-made Protagonists.


An immersive One-Shot Introductory adventure.


A bespoke module for the Foundry Virtual Tabletop platform.




 

This package is designed to provide everything you need for an engaging introduction to the game, ensuring a memorable one-shot session.


A Milestone Kickstarter for Legitamine Games

 

Though this Kickstarter represents a modest segment (approximately 10%) of the game's total content, it's a significant leap for both Metanthropes and Legitamine Games in our journey as a game design company. We deeply appreciate your support from these early stages. Our backers will receive exclusive rewards and one-time deals, as a token of our gratitude for your invaluable contribution.

 

What's Next?

 

Over the next two months, stay tuned for more updates on the project, development insights, and a showcase of new, original artworks. We're excited to embark on this journey with you and can't wait to share these experiences.

 

Stay Legit,

Stay Meta.

Greetings Metanthropes,

 

We're thrilled to announce the completion of the latest update for Metanthropes, affectionately codenamed: "Burgundy Version." This update marks a significant milestone, encompassing all the enhancements detailed in our previous Blog post. As the seventh color-themed installment of our game, Burgundy signifies not just another step in our journey of our Beta phase and into our inaugural Kickstarter campaign. Curious about our journey so far? Take a look at our comprehensive Roadmap.

 


 

What's New in Burgundy?

 

The highlight of the Burgundy Version is the expansion of Chapter 4: Metabase. Here's what you can look forward to:

100 Unique Metapowers: Each Metapower now boasts its own distinctive icon (as previewed below). These powers are the heartbeat of Metanthropes, and we've enriched them with detailed descriptions, rigorous playtesting feedback, and additional resources like examples, tables, and illustrative images.

Enhanced Accessibility and Interaction: Our community, Audience members and above, can now navigate these powers with unparalleled ease. Whether you're sorting by name, Classification, Energy Type, or associated Stat, accessing Metapowers has never been easier.

Community Engagement: We're inviting all members to shape the evolution of Metanthropes. Rate and review each Metapower, earn Badges, and accumulate achievement points. Your voice is crucial in this journey. Start influencing the game today by signing up here and learn more about climbing the ranks here.

Our dedication has also been channeled into developing an exceptional Foundry VTT demo, which is progressing spectacularly. Dive deeper into this journey in our previous Blog post here and stay updated with our ongoing documentation and development on our GitHub page.

How to become a member (video)

Greetings Metanthropes,


It’s been quite some time since we communicated what’s been happening on the Virtual Tabletop (VTT) environment for Metanthropes, so we’d like to bring everyone up to speed with what we have been working on. Last time we blogged about it, we came up with a few key features that the ideal VTT should possess. To summarize, we wanted the VTT for Metanthropes to meet the following criteria:
