Hack your own Silly RPG with the Atomic Pickle Sauce core system

With game mechanics that lean into swingy and chaotic gameplay with funny characters and outrageous escapades.

Inspired by many great TTRPGs - this uses a single dodecahedron (d12) as the core dice players use for Action Rolls to keep action swingy and chaotic. Like many 2d6 Powered by the Apocalypse hacks, it has "Success with Complications" but avoids the playbooks and character archetypes as it is ONLY one single page (2-sides). It has a core loop of Conditions and Food - similar to the Gauntlet arcade game, "Wizard needs food badly."

I look forward to seeing what others create with the liberal FREE license included in the one-page submission

My entry for the amazing  One-Page RPG 2026 jam.

Proudly using No AIbots.

I made this for the 2026 One-Page RPG JAM - it is a TTRPG kit/system that is based upon my favorite hacks for PBtA, RISUS, Goblin City, and a few other amazing RPGs. No Stats. No Hit Points. No Death. Just Complications, Conditions, and a very chaotic DICE RESOLUTION system. It currently doesn’t have archetypes or playbooks - but those should be pretty easy to add-on.

I’ve given it an easy license for personal or commercial use as a gift to our TTRPG hacker/designer community.

I’m going to try making a few settings/adventures for it. I hope you will too… you can try on this new RPG Adventure JAM…
