Really started putting ‘pen to paper’ on Whole New World this week.
Whole New World is a little different to many RPGs in that your character choices are limited. Now I hear you say that’s normal but I don’t necessarily mean by class or race. They’re limited because you’re the one of ther last 50 humans left alive.

This will be a compelling new science fiction RPG. Promise.

Whole New World is based on the premise of the anthology novel A Whole New World (available at Apple and Amazon)

When Earth could no longer sustain us, we looked to the stars for salvation. A Whole New World is a sweeping anthology of humanity’s final days on Earth and its audacious journey to find a new home among the stars.

Spanning generations and galaxies, this collection of interconnected stories takes readers on an emotional and gripping voyage. From the desperate last days of a collapsing planet to the awe and terror of discovering alien worlds, each story is a window into the lives of those who dared to leave everything behind.

Experience the monumental construction of the Odyssey, humanity’s greatest vessel, through the eyes of engineers wrestling with the enormity of their task. Witness the courage, and moral compromises, of those chosen to preserve humanity’s genetic legacy. Follow the crew as they navigate isolation, mutiny, and the unrelenting vastness of space. And, finally, step onto the surface of a new planet, where survival is not guaranteed and the dream of a better future is fragile but achingly real.

Highlights from this epic anthology include:

• “The Phoenix Report” (2045): A construction worker on the Phoenix station reflects on the challenges of building in orbit and the growing despair over Earth’s escalating crises
• “Shamir’s Journey” (2112): The one-way voyage of a daring astronaut through a wormhole, chronicling his isolation and humanity’s first glimpse of interstellar space.
• “Auroras of Memory” (2176): On an alien world, a biologist struggles to adapt to the planet’s rhythm while holding onto the memory of Earth.
• “The Final Journey of the Odyssey” (2179): A bittersweet farewell to the Odyssey as the last remnants of the ship are dismantled, marking the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.

With unforgettable characters, breath-taking settings, and profound themes of resilience, sacrifice, and hope, A Whole New World is more than science fiction—it’s a testament to the enduring spirit of humanity.

Perfect for fans of The Martian, Interstellar, and Ad Astra, this anthology explores what it means to leave everything behind and create a future from the ashes of the past. Will humanity rise to the challenge, or will we repeat the mistakes that doomed our first home?

Embark on this journey today and discover how far we’ll go to survive, to endure, and to dream.
