Dissonance

About the Designer

Justin, aka Dissonance, is a writer and game-designer who self publishes titles under the moniker Moth-Lands. Based in Seattle, Washington, he harbors a deep love for indy-comics, indy-film, indy-games ... are you sensing a pattern here? He has a passion for storytelling and his greatest design goal is to learn something new with every game he makes. 

You can check out Justin's games here, on this page, on his personal website, or maybe hear his voice occasionally on the Hacked in the Dark podcast, a show featuring Forged in the Dark games and their designers!

Community Copies

Several of Justin's games have free community copies available specifically for those who would be unable to afford them otherwise. Each purchase you make gets turned into another community copy for someone else to enjoy✨

Currently Participating:

• Moth-Light
• At Death's Door
• Cthulhu Deep Green
• The Linear Men

Print on Demand Copies

Currently Itch.io does not have a partner for fulfilling print copies of RPGs and supplements. While Justin receives a much larger profit margin here on itch than on competing websites, he does offer print-on-demand copies of select products through DriveThru.

• Cthulhu Deep Green PoD
• The Linear Men PoD
