承上,「糨糊」是一款TRPG系統,或者說是打造角色形象的另類手段。
主要應用於同時喜愛演繹角色與戰棋的玩家。此系統致力於提供PL(player)在維持PC(player character)戰力並享受戰棋樂趣同時,使PL能打造符合心目中期望的PC形象。
但並非直接提供零散、細碎且毫無規律的規則給PL毫無目的地拼湊角色,而是希望能站在GM(世界觀與劇情主要編寫者)的角度,以方便GM和PL溝通。進而共同創造符合各自期望的劇情。

Following on, StArch is a TRPG system, or an alternative means of creating character images.
It's primarily used by players who enjoy both role-playing and tactical combat. This system is dedicated to enabling PLs (player) to maintain their PC's (player character) combat effectiveness and enjoy the fun of tactical games, while also creating a PC image that meets their expectations.
However, it doesn't directly provide scattered, fragmented, and disorderly rules for the players to assemble their characters aimlessly. Rather, it hopes to take the perspective of the Game Master (GM, the main writer of the worldview and plot) to facilitate communication between GM and players.
This way, they can jointly create a storyline that meets everyone's expectations.

「糨糊」以「身分」為主軸,或許會覺得有些像DND的兼職(Multiclassing)。 他是,但不盡然。 
在「糨糊」中身分代表著組成PC的物件。他是職業,也能是工作,更能是PC的興趣——只要這項事物或經歷曾參與過PC的人生,就能成為一種身分。
身分將和角色形象緊密連結,並為PC提供與其相關的能力。更重要的是,身分在「糨糊」中是模糊化的。
 不僅只是流於「戰士」、「野蠻人」、「法師」這類只專注於戰鬥的劃分,而是更貼近生活,將生活周遭的職能紙面化。
而更多的特點將會在之後的檔案中詳細(如果我能的話)說明。

StArch takes "identity" as the main axis, which may feel somewhat like "multiclassing" in DND. It’s look similar, but not exactly.
In StArch, identity represents the components that make up the PC. It can be a profession, a job, or even a PC's hobby - as long as this thing or experience has participated in the life of the PC, it can become an identity.
Identity is closely linked with character image and provides the PC with abilities related to it. What's more important is that identity in StArch is blurred.
It's not just about divisions like 'warrior', 'barbarian', or 'mage' that focus only on combat, but rather it is more about life, transforming the professional functions around life onto paper.
And more features will be detailed in later documents (if I can).

下載前須知
(Before Download You Should Know)

目前系統只有骨架,往後會釋出與世界觀緊密連結的版本,是中華古風的哦。
意圖將戰棋策略性與劇情敘事結合,力求同時能滿足兵棋戰術需求與遊戲世界觀的結合。
儘管本意是「專門」給TRPG的系統,不過其實套用在電子遊戲上也可以。
例如將性格模板化後,強調哪方面的性格就能增強戰力之類的。
但要注意這套系統仍需要人工填補許多地方,無法直接使用。

Currently, the system is just a framework. In the future, it will be released with a deep connection to its unique worldview, inspired by ancient Chinese aesthetics!
The original intention behind the system's design is to blend turn-based strategy and narrative storytelling, aiming to cater to both the tactical demands of war chess and the immersive experience of the game world.
Although its primary focus is on tabletop role-playing games (TRPGs), it can also be adapted for electronic games. For instance, by modularizing character personalities, emphasizing certain traits could enhance their combat capabilities, creating a fascinating fusion of gameplay and role-playing elements.
However, it should be noted that this system still requires manual filling in many places and cannot be used directly.

其實更像是一種拼接奇美拉,所以想用儘管用吧! 我根本「不在乎」這玩意兒被誰拿去用,或者說能被其他人用上代表這東西還不錯。
但如果用起來還不錯,或是不盡人意,都歡迎留言給我們……這些都是很珍貴的參考資料,我會珍惜的~

In a way, it resembles a puzzle with various intertwined aspects, and I encourage others to utilize it freely. I literally don't care if this thing is taken and used by someone else. If this system were used by others, I think it means this system is useful.
Whether it turns out to be excellent or falls short of expectations, We welcome any feedback and comments. These inputs are precious and will be highly valued. I promise to cherish them and make improvements if necessary.

最後……
(In the end…)

若你讀到這裡後對「糨糊」仍相當好奇,現在免費釋出demo,不妨下載檔案來看看吧!

If you've read up to here and are still quite curious about StArch, the free demo is now available, why not download the file and take a look?

在9/1後,雖然「糨糊」改為收費(預定兩鎂),但仍會利用社群副本的機制提供免費版,想嘗試看看的話能自由索取。但如果能花個一杯飲料錢支持咱們lab繼續創作,我們會更有資本提供更多回饋給喜歡我們遊戲的大家!

After September 1st, although StArch will become a paid product (expected to be two dollars), it will still use the community copy mechanism to provide a free version, which you can freely obtain if you want to try it out.
However, if you could support our lab with the price of a cup of beverage, we would have more capital to offer more rewards to everyone who loves our game!

當然,最後還是要說一下我們提供的檔案是中文的。下載者能自行用什麼方法翻成任何語言都好,或是把問題傳給我們,我們會盡可能解決的。

And yes, of course. This system is also display by Chinese. You can translate by yourself, or send the question for us, then we'll do my best to solve them.
