Become the Teen With Attitude you always wanted to be

Inspired by tokusatsu hero teams and magical girl squads, PbC is a game about building a brightly-coloured Hero team and playing their adventures across a Series, fighting to save the world from evil!

PbC brings all players together to collaborate on crafting a Series, with its own aesthetics for heroes and villains, its own setting, and unique qualities for each hero. Play comprises the Episodes of the Series: both the Heroes' lives, and fights against Boss characters. It uses a relatively straightforward d6 system and encourages the Hero players to think about how their individual actions work towards a team strategy, bolstering allies and keeping momentum!

This is the Beta Version of the game, fully playable with a set of optional rules for Combining Mecha.

Awesome game! We played as sentient ice cream heroes and it was epic. I enjoyed the pretty simple dice system and how it used successes in a way I haven’t quite seen before. Would definitely play again!

Are there any new updates about this game?  I can't find anything when I try googling it.

hey! thank you so much for asking, I'm actually most of the way done with the Beta edition, just been steamrolled by long COVID and a busy job over the course of the past year -- but i've only got a few pages to finish tidying up, and I hope to have a new version of the game up before the end of the year!

Any possible plans for a physical book?

Definitely something I'd like to do, but probably depends on how much interest there is in the game as a whole

YeaaaaAAAAAAAH!

This book is so slick, I love the way you've got the boss and encounter mechanics set up and there are SO many different kinds of stories I can already imagine for this system. I cannot way to find a reason to whip this out and use it as the basis for a campaign. Good Work on this!
