A decade ago, VTX Worldmakers arrived in the agrarian settlement of Cattledown. Days after the surveyors sent their report back to head office, a PEV (planetary-exploitation-vessel) pulled into orbit and swiftly constructed facilities for the extraction of the superheavy isotopes used by VTX Worldmaker’s astra-forming division. VTX want everything. They’re bought up the land, hired local muscle and are slowly forcing everyone that isn’t them out of town. The townsfolk aren’t going to stand for it, and there’ll be blood in the sand before they leave.

ORBITAL BLUES is a lo-fi space western roleplaying game from SoulMuppet Publishing, written by Sam Sleney & Zachary Cox and illustrated by Josh Clark. A roleplaying love-letter to off-beat sci-fi, vintage music, and cooperative old-school styled roleplay, Orbital Blues allows you to play out rules-light adventures in the style of your favourite space westerns.
Stepping into the shoes of Interstellar Outlaws, players band together to form Crews, and navigate a hard-going, gig-economy living on the fringes of a space-faring society.
Developed on the critically acclaimed rules-lite system of Best Left Buried, Orbital Blues uses a simple D6 based system with 3 basic stats - MUSCLE, GRIT, and SAVVY - to handle rolls and uncertainty - putting the narrative and relationships of the player characters at the heart of play without the baggage of hefty mechanics, classes or roles.
The collection has been expanded to include a huge range of adventures, each one providing a unique perspective on the expansive Outlaw Galaxy.
