The OSR-adjacent gangster game, Crime Wave, is getting a new edition, known as Crime Wave FlimFlam, and to celebrate this, the creator has put up a beta of the rules:

And is hosting a Crime Wave FlimFlam Game Jam for adventures and additions:

The game itself is a mixture of Into the Odd and Traveller, using a 2d6 + Stat + Skill against a standard, but modifiable TN.
It includes blockcrawling as a mechanism, making every trip across Babylon City -- the default setting -- as dangerous as you want it to be.
Your Palooka can find jobs, bribe politicians, do crimes, and shoot tommyguns from your speeding Model T. Gamble your winnings away and go to jail if you go too far!

The start of something new! I'm running an experiment where I start off with a barebones resolution mechanic and see where it takes me and my group. I'll write down and codify rulings until I get something I can call finished before releasing it to the world! Join me, and let's see where it takes us!
