Wrote a nice report on the Mausritter campaign I've wrapped up last month, plus some updates on the current projects in development. Check it out...especially the sick map drawings by one of the players AND sneak peek at the ship cards in development for a Mothership project!
Root's Ramblings Issue 18
Things are a bit slow on the design side, mostly due to real life stuff, which is typical for me. However, we did make some exciting progress with our Mothership ID4 project. We've worked a lot on cle...

I'm gonna link to all the Indie Tabletop RPG coverage I've gotten to do at polygon so yall can go support the work that is currently there!!!
I'm planning on doing more in these last couple weeks, but I'll continue covering indie games @rascalnews.bsky.social long after I leave polygon

Everyone who is mad at Polygon today is justified in their frustration at this media ecosystem
But also you should go read and comment on all of my articles I've published on Polygon featuring indie RPGs so they do more of it.
Writers there are beholden to the bullshit restrictions of Executives

This is SO GOOD
I run #OSR #RPGs for kids (I'm currently running #Shadowdark). I'm constantly amazed by how "dungeon crawling" lives in the zeitgeist of kids. I made this #dungeon door flowchart to help with procedural play and fill in some gaps, which will ideally be expanded into a #zine or series of pamphlets.

Fantastic book!
Did I reread “This Is How You Lose the Time War” by @amalelmohtar.com and @maxgladstone.bsky.social in a single day, just so I could listen to the Close Reading series from @writingexcuses.bsky.social? Why yes, yes I did. In a shocking turn of events, the novella continues to be a masterpiece.
