Alright, besides Tales of the Space Princess, Rocketship Empires 1936, Space: 1899 (debatable), and that chromatic space babe game (did it ever get finished?) what else ya got?

I want chicks in bubble helmets and leotards fighting dudes wearing finned helmets and short-sleeve tank-tops in vacuum.

What are those. What did you just list.
>>

Those are all raygun gothic-type RPGs that focus on an aesthetic and technology level comparable to what was seen in 1930s-40s visions of the future.

Listen, Brenda. Just because we bought an Amazing Computron that is both strong enough to carry you, and knows the way home is no reason to make him carry you, while drinking, after using the orbital atomic fusion ray so you can see the carnage first hand.

Have some fucking class, woman.

Yes, my Discmen of Ceti-Beta 4 will burn the city with their Illumirays. Let the rising heat from the smoldering corpses create a foul wind that makes my keep billow in this double-boss fashion.

>>44119436
I wish there was more games set in this kind of setting

Savage Worlds' Slipstream is pulpy, Flash Gordon-style sci-fi complete with animal-men and so forth. That's not too far from what you're looking for. I think there are a few Barsoom / John Carter of Mars-related games (though their names escape me at the moment, if you google stuff like Mars, John Carter or Barsoom along with RPG/Role Playing Game, I'm sure you'll turn some stuff up).

Barbarians of Lemuria would make a great basis for a planetary romance campaign, you'd just need to drop in a few rayguns and (maybe) drop the magic-related careers. Hell, you wouldn't even have to change the existing weapons, just make conventional/futuristic ones that are a bit more effective (maybe getting +2 or +3 damage... remember that getting the better of two d6 rolls gives you about the same average damage as a d6+1). You could check out Barbarians of the Aftermath, which has a build-your-own, toolbox approach to post apocalyptic settings using the BoL systems. It has rules and guidelines for making futuristic weapons.

Possibly Machinations of the Space Princess, which is based on Lamentations of the Flame Princess / Basic D&D. Possibly Buck Rogers. You could easily play a Star Wars rpg in a way that fits what you're looking for (either changing the setting, or just tweaking it).

Try googling "sword and planet", "planetary romance", "retro scifi" or "pulp scifi" role-playing games.

I mean, the entire John Carter of Mars series I guess.
>>
>>44126235
Stars Without Number may apply as well. It's more serious, but fundamentally it's an OSR space opera game.

This link is great, thank you

You can actually keep the magic in Flash Gordon games, as there are a few magicians running around Mongo in the comic strips. And a parody of the Magician Queen appears in Flesh Gordon

CSB game sadly never happened.

Dungeon World has a third arty supplement for this type of thing. Called Dungeon Planet, IIRC.
