We Love The Void
A downloadable game
This complete RPG looks at the themes of Existentialism and explores them in positive directions, working in elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Characters seek meaning in magic realism and absurdist plots, all the while they inspire bits of the universe to seek their own meaning.
This beta release of We Love The Void (previously published as Existential Positivity) also contains two sample sessions and a printable character sheet. In total, it is over 8,000 words. We Love The Void is considered beta because it has not been fully playtested.

...can't tell if 'meaning in the void' means there's not supposed to be a file here and that's the whole point, or if it's just a missing file.
Oops, I guess I made a mistake in a previous update. Thanks for catching that!
No worries :) Looking forward to seeing what kind of feels come from this. Hard to go wrong with a bit of magical realism
That appears to have been the intended design, as the void remains.
I promise this isn't weird performance art! It looks like I accidentally set the file to be hidden when I added it before. This game has been renamed "We Love The Void" because "Existential Positivity" was always kind of a placeholder name.
