SkyRealms Publishing

SkyRealms Publishing was an American game company that produced role-playing games and game supplements.

History

Andrew Leker created the world of Jorune in the early 1980s while in college, and he self-published the first edition of SkyRealms of Jorune (1984) through a new company, SkyRealms Publishing. SkyRealms Publishing put out a second edition of the game the next year, as a boxed set rather than the 176-page single book of the first edition.[1]:201 The company released a booklet of rules modifications in 1987 and supported the game with a couple of settings books and a tech book, and contributed a "Segment Jorune" for several issues of White Wolf magazine before Leker finished college and moved on to another career. In 1987 the company took on a contract from Autodesk to work on an "Ants" computer game, and the company stopped publishing by the end of the 1980s as Leker moved into the computer gaming field.[1]:202 The "Ants" project was never released commercially.[2]
