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. 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. The "Ants" project was never released commercially.
