You get your gang of gregarious youths ready to engage in the high tech world of high octane fish crime. Some ratty skater punks with hacker skills maybe, or some beefcakes with big arms and scars from pulling catfish out of their holes with their own fists. So you get some friends together, some queer folks who live on the edge. Pay so good you could live easy, eat real cheese for once. As common as the rumors of the living dead are, so are the rumors of secret activists, elusive ecological warriors who’d pay big for a live specimen. A fish doesn’t do anyone any good when it’s locked up. You don’t know what you’d do with one, but sometimes you wonder. Your grandmother tells you stories of reefs with dozens of different species and colors, busy patterns moving in stressful, choking throngs of life. Muddy brown perch that flop and writhe, coated in thin oils. There are still fish that swim in the rivers of the world. In this Belonging Outside Belonging game, you play as queer fisherfolk trying to make a life in a world where a dozen billionaires have killed the earth. In the Near Future, following ecological collapse, gangs of gregarious youths scale skyscrapers, commune with ghosts, and dodge mech police to engage in the high tech, high octane world of fish crime. (If they enjoy playing, maybe suggest they throw a few dollars my way though) *** Please do still buy the game but if you own it and want to play with your friends, they don't have to also buy it, they can just download the reference sheets and they're good to go. ***Reference Sheets are free! Check the 'Demos' section below to download Playbooks, Situations, and The Job, everything that players would need.

It’s like doing a sick kickflip over a curb but instead of a skateboard it’s a crankbait & instead of a curb it’s the destruction of ecological systems by capitalist industry & instead of a kickflip it’s crime.
