Animatica (Mixed Media Animated Multiverse)

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Dive into a world of animated madness! Animatica is mixed-media universe containing characters of countless genres. Stop-motion, puppeteered, 3D CGI, sketch drawing, and traditional cartoon characters all co-exist in a sprawling cross-genre multiverse. Create any kind of animated or puppeteered character you want.

Explore infinite 'verses! For every type of animation, subgenre, and even individual fictional world, there exists a 'verse. Franklin, a cross-genre and mixed-media megacity, is a major hub for travel between the 'verses and a common setting for mixed-media character groups. The playtest module includes a description of four other 'verses as well. You can also easily create your own genre and medium specific worlds.

Simple character creation and rules. Animatica uses a light d6 storytelling system. Characters in the core build are based around a genre and a medium. They only have 4 core traits, a small set of Tricks (animation powers), one or two Qualities (unique animation powers), and two Quirks (flaws). Includes a diceless mod for kids' and simplified play.

Modular and easy to extend! For specific stories, the rules are easily modded to adapt to almost any comedic, dramatic, or cinematic animated genres. Most mods focus on character type restrictions, replacing the animation-focused default Paradigms & Tricks, and restricting Qualities as appropriate to the story. Easily customize Animatica for a wide variety of styles and stories.

Join in the playtest and explore the strange and amusing possibilities of the multiverse of Animatica!

Updated Development Ashcan COMING SOON

  • General text revisions
  • Character reward and growth system.
  • Guidace for stories in each example 'Verse
  • A new example 'Verse
  • An additional example character for each Medium

I don't agree with playtest or alpha editions of games being charged for - except for pay what you want

Our two most popular titles were released with testing/development versions and expanded into more complete ashcans. It works well for our audience. We understand it is not for everyone. As a general topic, we'd rather not rehash Reddit/Twitter/RPG forum debates here. If you'd like to argue it, you can hit us up on Twitter: https://twitter.com/__ThoughtPolice

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
