The book this week is an RPG system made by someone from the same state as me. I play-tested it some and even gave suggestions for fixes.
This week's book is CJ Ruby's Exploding Aces.
This is a cinematic RPG that uses a regular deck of cards as the resolution mechanic. It is genre agnostic.
It has been a while since I used this system so I do not remember exactly how the card drawing works but I remember liking it. I can not speak to character creation as I only used pre-generated characters and did not make my own.
