A community for Sci-Fi themed tabletop RPGs.
TripTech Game Jam
Last month, Graham Richardson (Lionhearth Games) organized the TripTech Game Jam, where contestants would create Tripanels (you know, the form factor of those pamphlets that fold in three) for Mothership.
Anyway, all 39 submissions are listed at the bottom of the page:
https://itch.io/jam/triptech-game-jam-052025
I found out about this jam thanks to this video by Dave Thaumavore in which he talks about the experience of being part of the jam and then shows off a few of the tripanels.
Cosmophobia 🇪🇸
A nice freebie for spanish-speaking (spanish-reading?) sci-fi genre enthusiasts. Of course, you can still browse it, enjoy the art and get inspiration even if you can't read spanish.

"A role playing game themed on Sci-Fi and corpoorate horror"
Edit: There's another Sci-Fi game in the same site, but with less horror, called Vieja Estrella:
https://grapasymapas.com/viejaestrella
The whole site is devoted to providing free RPG stuff in Spanish in a very English-dominant hobby (though they also have their fantasy offering in Galician, French, Basque, Portuguese, and Catalan). Most of their stuff has very simple mechanics and a very old-school vibe.
Sci-Fi Bar
Welcome to a local space bar known for its cheap drinks, good food, and warm environment full of people. This place is frequented mostly by locals, although it's not uncommon to spot travelers sitting at the bar.
This dive bar features a large bar table, booths for dining, pool tables, and a stage for performers. There is a storage area at the bottom left, and a kitchen, office, and restrooms near the top right. This map pack features 3 unique variants, including a modern dive bar, a 1920's prohibition-era bar, and a cyberpunk bar.

Sci-Fi Gang Hideout
Tucked away along some road is a tiny barbershop, which seems to attract seedy clients and suspicious individuals. Most people seem to avoid this barbershop, straying clear of its doors and the rough-looking men standing outside. This place is actually the hideout of a notorious gang that runs a large part of the city. Watch your step when entering this place!
This building includes two floors. The first floor is comprised of the barbershop, some storage rooms, and a bar/lounge area for gang members.
The second floor includes beds, a computer/control room with cameras to monitor the premises, and a grow room that includes the merchandise. This map pack features modern & cyberpunk variations, along with two alternate hideouts of weapons dealers and organ harvesters.

With mayday around the corner, offers are starting to pop up. One such is this Bundle of Holding which includes This is Free Trader Beowolf (and only that).
And yes, the discount is good. But I do try my best to only buy stuff that I actually want/need. Sometimes I even succeed ;).
So I come here asking for your opinion.

Space: 1999 - Quickstart

Orbital Trouble: d12 Space Outpost Hooks
Had some large blocks of “waiting time” on the weekend, so I started noodling on what might make space outposts interesting. Why? I’m a sci-fi RPG noob, aiming to run my first game when things settle down a bit over here. And I’m not very familiar with the details and tropes of the genre. So, […]

Orbital Trouble: d12 Space Outpost Hooks - Roleplaying Tips
Oasis Island
Another test I wanted to make.
Not quite happy with the result, I find it a bit "meh". But I do intend to use it later in a collage of sorts.
This is a location we played a few years ago (the place where my "milk run" unfolded). though back then we used theatre of the mind. But as I was staring at a blank canvas for this test I wanted to make, I decided to give it a go.
Papercraft shuttle - Crooked Staff Terrain

If you're into papercraft, this might appeal to you.
This youtuber usually does a lot of fantasy stuff, but this time we got a Sci-Fi shuttle.
Downport landing pad
Just a small test I wanted to try out, but I thought I'd still share.
