A lovely distillation of ttrpg. I only have one concern, which is that there doesn’t seem to be any explanation of what a monster/npc’s level actually does mechanically, despite it being referenced in the magic table. Other than that, there’s a ton of useful tables in this that I can definitely use and the simplicity of things is truly impressive.
Very very nice condensed version of the GLOG, you’ve done a great job.
Although, as far as I can say, the original GLOG is published under a Creative Commons license CC-BY-NC-SA ; I think it’d be a great idea to add this license reference in the documents, so it could allow creators to make their own hacks, modules, etc. What do you think?
Whoops! This is what I intended anyway, I just don't typically think of the legal aspect of sharing free things. Thanks for pointing it out, and I will add it to the page!
btw, I’ve noticed that the PDFs don’t include the text, so they’re like full-images.
It’s readable and all, but do you think it’d be possible to publish a text version of the documents? That could open the way for hacks (and I’m thinking about translations, for example).
Most OSR monsters should work straight out of the box. MiniDELVE has some basic rules for monsters. I usually use HD as bonus to hit and saves for simplicity's sake.
Also, I highly recommend the Monster Overhaul if you're looking for a good manual, or the Basic Fantasy Monster SRD for a free alternative.

Extremely cool! What font is that btw? it’s very fun!
Thanks! The regular text is Jost, and titles are in Germania One.
Yes indeed it is! Thank you very much :D

Interesting. I'll take a peek at why that's happening if I can.
I love how simple this is.
Do you have a page of monsters? Or a conversion guide?

Awesome, I have the Monster Overhaul as well as BFRG base and field guides; it looks like I'm all set.
Thanks so much!
