Okay, since the John is Possessed game didn't end up gaining traction, let's do a game of Laser's and Feelings. It's a one-page space rpg by John Harper. We'll keep it fast and loose, and base this one the tone of Galaxy Quest/Star Trek/The Orville etc.

STORY:
ALIEN BRAIN WORMS WANT TO EMPOWER THEIR GIANT DEATH RAY WHICH WILL DESTROY AN ENTIRE SOLAR SYSTEM!!!
Hi I’m Kidd Cannon, a hot shot pilot (4) itching to shoot some bad guys. Those Brain Worms won’t know what hit them!
First scene is up ;)
According to the game sheet: lasers is roll under and feelings is roll over. But in the first scene post you reversed that. I’m going to assume you made a mistake.
Ah yes, thanks for the heads up, corrected ;)
