RPGaDAY 2017: Day 02

2. What is an RPG [game, world, or adventure] you would like to see published?

The cover of Ghostbusters: A Frightfully Cheerful Roleplaying Game, published by West End Games.

My first instinct is to say a reprint of the original Ghostbusters role-playing game, preferably with an accompanying booklet that condenses the rules (and offers a binary randomizer option similar to that used in Prince Valiant) and higher quality equipment cards (with an emphasis on durability).

Otherwise, I would like to see a Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers, or Barbarella game based on the Prince Valiant rules system.

A Fudge or Sherpa conversion of Timeship would also be welcome (especially if I am hired to convert it).

A Month of Tales from the Loop

Keith Garrett of The Adventures of Keith Garrett is devoting a month to writing about the Tales from the Loop role-playing game (available from Free League Publishing and Modiphius Entertainment). The game, based on the art of Simon Stålenhag, uses a d6 dice pool system that might be of interest to Decidedly Six-Sided readers.
