TWISTED CONFESSIONS SIGNS WITH INDIE PRESS REVOLUTION!
Publisher of fast-pace, high-stakes RPG called Fastlane is the 13th member to join network
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
New York, NY (April 5) - Twisted Confessions, the personal independent publishing venture of author and hypnotist Alexander Cherry, has signed with Indie Press Revolution (IPR) to carry its exciting new game Fastlane.
"This one of those games that I feel we had to carry at IPR," says Ed Cha, Chairman of IPR. "It's not like any other RPG book I've ever read or played before. Fastlane is highly addictive and adrenaline-pumping!"
Fastlane uses roulette-based rules to set a fast-pace game with high-stakes where characters live fast, die young, and leave a good-looking corpse. There are many highs and lows in Fastlane that make it a highly-charged and fun game to play.
"Clinton (R. Nixon), who designed the highly-popular RPG The Shadow of Yesterday, recommended that Alexander look us up," says Brennan Taylor, CEO of IPR. "Apparently, Clinton couldn't say enough good things about us! We looked at Alexander's game, loved it, and decided to sign him on."
In Fastlane, players have almost complete control over how much risk they're willing to take for their characters. In the end though, it is the wheel that determines everyone's fates.
"Fastlane isn't about the long run," says Alexander. "It isn't about the future or the past. It's about the NOW."
Character creation is easy and rules are clearly explained. Because the game is genre-neutral, it can be used in any setting.
"This game's got a lot of flair and style to it," says Ed. "Yet, it's flexible enough to be used with any backdrop really."
Attitude and passion are key in Fastlane. As a character, you can get a bonus when you go after what matters most or when acting according to your own style.
"Fastlane is universal, but not generic," says Alexander. "I didn't want to bias the game towards any particular setting or genre. That doesn't mean it doesn't have its own tone though."
This is a game of unchecked indulgence and reckless abandon, insatiable lusts and lofty ambitions, a roller coaster of sky-high peaks and rock-bottom valleys in a world of decadence and debasement.
"Fastlane is experimental and daring," says Brennan. "I think it is a really good game and we're proud to carry it at IPR.
