YAKEMY

Whoever owes in Belona, never leaves. YAKEMY is a solo journaling RPG about working as an underground patcher in a collapsing cyberpunk metropolis. You'll need a six-sided die (d6), a notebook or a note-taking app, and a playlist that smells of oil, neon, and burning circuits. Each in-game day, you: Roll 5d6 to determine your resources (Scrap & Chrome) Receive clients with specific demands and risk levels Build or improvise implants Accumulate Heat and Stress , each eating away at your life Write your day in a journal — an intimate record of your physical and mental decay It’s a game about technological rot , the body as commodity , exhausting routines , and dreams that survive purely out of stubbornness . > HOW THE GAME WORKS >> 1. Hands on Chrome Your day begins with Belona’s mood (via Oracle): acid rain, faction wars, drone lockdowns, bonuses, glitches. You also discover who’s at your door and what implant they need. >> 2. See If You Are Good Allocating dice is just the start. The results shape your day: Clean Chrome → perfect work Improvised Scrap → jury-rigged fix, Heat, and complications Boost → extra resources at the cost of your mind >> 3. Resolving Get paid… or don’t. Gain trouble… almost always. The client leaves, but the consequences stay. >> 4. End of Day Pay rent/bribes, try to reduce Heat, keep leftover Chrome, breathe, and write your journal. Tomorrow you do it all again. > THE NEURAL MAP — THE COST OF STRESS Whenever your Stress increases, you mark a deterioration in your Neural Map. Tics, tremors, loss of focus, processing glitches… nothing returns to normal. YAKEMY is a challenging game about carrying scars — both physical and mental. > WHAT YOU'LL FIND ON YAKEMY >> [CORE YAKEMY BUNDLE] YAKEMY Core [ The complete game in a 16-page zine format.

Unfortunately, he did not pull through and passed away, but he fought until the very end. Sansão, his siblings, and I are very grateful for all the support and love that the community has shown. Sansão and I thank you! Your support means a lot. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Where Furyya’s vampires find the perfect patcher! Get your copy of Crimson Hack !
