Hawker - 2025 Update


Hi folks,

I wanted to start by saying a huge thank you to everyone who downloaded Hawker in the past few days. Thanks to all of you, Hawker made it to the Top 5 physical games on Itch. So it felt only fair to post an update to everyone who has downloaded the game recently to let you know that I am still working on it. 

I talked previously about the Goldentides update, a seafaring addition to Hawker. I also recently talked about a settlement update. Both of these updates have led me to develop a larger overhaul of Hawker into a format that extends beyond one page. I'm currently designing a longer-form version of the game, which will eventually be a booklet or zine (with other zines that will follow that add more features to the game). I've been taking my time with this update as Hawker is a project that is very dear to me. However, I would love to hear people's experiences with the game and potential additional features that people would find desirable. 

The Hawker Update currently encompasses the following

  • Skills overhaul & skill classes
  • Resolution system overhaul 
  • Trading system overhaul
  • More tables to help generate the world, settlements & people you meet
  • Pre-generated content that slots into your world 
  • Hex-travel overhaul

Once again, thank you so much to everyone who has supported the game through its development and continued updates! Drop a comment and let me know any thoughts you may have!

Keep wise of your coin and your cargo, merchants!

I just saw this post after I asked for your permission regarding Tabletop Simulator. My friends and I have a few guided sessions planned (they play as merchants and I guide them like a GM). I'll collect feedbacks and share with you once we've played together.

that’s fantastic! I hope you guys have fun with it, feedback would be grand!
