Yesterday I woke up to the news of the people responsible for bringing us A Thousand Thousand Islands are parting ways. This makes me sad because these zines and settings were one of my favorite things to come out of the OSR and the ATTI brought together all types of gamers including story gamers. I am no historian or professional on the matter but the inspiration seems accurate and the material remains culturally sensitive.
Zedreck Siew posted this statement on the Tumblr blog:
Reading this is rough and it sounds like both people involved had different feelings and beliefs of their rolls in the partnership.
Munkao posted a response to Zedeck Siew's statement through the update function on their successful Kickstarter of Reach of the Roach God here.
Reading both statements, it sounds like there was hurt feelings on both sides, miscommunication, and unfair statements, etc. I am sure we will never know the full story and all of the details but regardless of the situation, I hope both parties are able to find their own healing and sometime of middle ground that does not involve lawyers.
I do not know what this means for the future of ATTI or Reach of the Roach God.
For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, below you can explore The Thousand Thousand Islands.
