Our Story
Sunburst Games is a small, independent game company, which began with a simple vision: Continue a legacy.
For over 35 years, Tabletop RPGs have inspired us to be something more than ourselves, to be heroes, villains, and sometimes even a little bit of both. They have forged friendships, made unforgettable memories, and even the allowed the most timid among us to feel the freedom of being an outspoken, confident bard, or an unrelenting barbarian.
Sunburst Games is proud to continue on this legacy, inspiring a whole new generation with limitless imagination.
Our Vision
Sunburst Games was established to ensure the legacy of d20 compatible RPGs, such as Pathfinder First Edition can continue on for years to come.
We aim to create original, exciting, and inspired products of only the highest quality, with stunning artwork, well-balanced character options, and unforgettable stories.
Pretty well everything you see from Sunburst Games, from the graphic design to the text, is made by our Founder, Kris Leonard. Whenever possible, the fantasy artwork featured in our products is either commission or stock artwork, made by actual human artists.
We do use AI-generated fantasy artwork (with extensive manual corrections), but only if we have been unsuccessful in sourcing appropriate stock artwork. As we are a small, independent company, commission artwork is simply not always a viable option, due to its high cost.
We do not condone the use of AI-generated artwork for advertisements or cover art with our Intrepid Realms RPG products, nor do we believe that any form of AI-generation should ever be used to replace actual human creativity in its entirety.
Meet the Team
Sunburst Games is a creation of limitless imagination. The people driving that are artists, authors, dreamers, and innovators who believe in that vision.
