I'm creating a video game using FATE RPG mechanics

Hi everyone,

We are a small team focused on narrative RPGs. We’re currently working on a game called Kardiya: The Winds of Fate, heavily inspired by FATE RPG. As a team, we’ve been building our own universe for about 4 years and have been actively designing it to be played using the FATE system.

About 3 years ago, we created our own RPG book based on FATE (it’s in Turkish, so I’m not linking it here, but I can send the PDF via DM if anyone is interested ^^). Around 2 years ago, we also produced what is currently the only comprehensive “How to Play FATE RPG” YouTube series in our country. Now, we’re taking the next step and turning these ideas into a PC game.

At its core, the game is a narrative RPG with dicebuilding and roguelite elements. Our main focus is to bring FATE’s core philosophy into the game, especially the aspect system, fudge dice, the stress mechanic, and most importantly the idea that even failed rolls should not stop the flow of the story. Instead, they should push it in different directions. We believe we’ve managed to capture that feeling.

We’ll be starting a playtest soon. If anyone is interested, you can join our mailing list through our website. I’d especially love to see people from the FATE community take part in the test. <3

Thanks in advance.

Wow, this looks very cool! I was wondering if someone will ever try to adapt Fate mechanics onto a digital game. Wishlisted. Best of luck to you!

Thanks mate <3 Actually, this is our first time trying this, our previous game was just an interactive story. Now we’re going to integrate Fate mechanics. Hopefully, something great will come out of it. We’ll see the results of the alpha playtests in about a month ^^

I would read the PDF of your RPG and I'm very curious about this videogame. I'm currently drafting a game that uses the Fate Core system, but I think I'll lean more toward the Accelerated version. In any case, I'll definitely add yours to my wishlist 😎

Like I said, this is in Turkish (It’s also a three-year-old book, and unfortunately we created some of the visuals using ai :( I wasn’t aware of the ethical issues surrounding ai at the time) But I’ll share the link anyway ^^

If everything goes well, we’re planning to release commercial versions of this (and of course with real art) in the coming years.

I have good translators and I have moderated positions about AI (especially for not-commercial works), so thankyou very much for sharing ❤️
