One page game: 30 Minutes Or Less

Deliver pizza in a wild future New York populated by humans, aliens, robots, clones and Brian. Fresh and on time or the driver dies!

I've been on a one-page-game kick lately, and so have a lot of other people thanks to the Itch.io One Page Game Jam. It's a fun design challenge - squeeze all the necessary rules clearly onto one page and use any leftover space to hint at a setting.

 I aim for very specific scenarios, because it doesn't pay to generalise - a million other people have already invented D20 with three attributes and no classes, races, or feats. 

In this game you play a team of rough, tough pizza delivery specialists. When an order comes in, you load up and set out to cross as many bizarre environmental zones as might be in between you and the customer. You're on an inflexible time limit, because the pizza box will only dispense the antidote to the poison you've been injected with if you're at the delivery address in 30 minutes or less. Get it here.
