Wound By Tension

If you used the Tension Engine SRD as the basis for your own project, it is encouraged to note that it is "Wound by Tension" to help potential players identify games that share a similar root. This graphic is also provided for your use under the same terms. It is inspired by antique clocks powered by tightly wound springs which would unleash their tension to turn the clock or strike the chimes.
