Hey folks! Did you know that it's really easy to find games made by poc on itch.io?
Just use the "poc made" tag! There you'll find your next fav TTRPG & support some great designers, new and old!
If you're a designer, tag your games poc-made so they show up on the feed!

I hate Severance.
Let me explain... I *love* Severance, but I am bit angry that it 's making me brain dump a game idea into first thing in the morning so I can work on other things lol.
This one's a doozy though.

Ok, so far my favorite part about Warframe? Dad jokes from Ordis.
"The sentients arent laughing at my jokes...
Have they *adapted* to my sense of humor?"
If you winced *or* laughed at that joke, you've played too much Warframe.

Where are the conversations on what are we can do to counter convention season? We cannot expect marginalized creatives to travel to the USA right now, hell, even traveling within the states is precarious. How can we revitalize focuses from early pandemic talks about fostering online gatherings?

They can't take that away from us! The only difference is you now have to append "...Swords without Master can *also* be found on Kickstarter."
Remembered to back the Swords Without Master kickstarter, and I'm a little bit sad if only because it means that I can no longer take random opportunities to ask where one might find Swords Without Master.

If there is ever a reason I wish I had a bit more reach, it would be to get certain projects out there and moving. But...at the same time, I am a reluctant promoter at best and also dont relish being percieved that much lol.

I tried to do a BHM TTRPG jam last year with middling results (I get that ppl are busy, so I am not stressing it).
We did get a couple of amazing games from it though!
