Hi Bluesky, I'm Ella, a solo ttrpg game designer from Australia.

A green wire bound book on a blue background. The title of the book is Fox Curio's Floating Bookshop. The cover image has a winding dock that leads to a house boat floating on a river. Reeds sit around the edges. A blue book on a blue background. The book has an illustrator of a lighthouse. The title of the book reads the lighthouse at the edge of the universe.

💎JEN'S UNDER-APPRECIATED GEMS: It's The Big Game by @lostwaysclub.itch.io - a quick pamphlet-sized solo RPG. Think, fantasy sports with actual fantasy. The event of the year is happening out in the stadium and you're stuck slinging snacks. Get updates from your customers, round by round. Go dragons!
The front of the pamphlet RPG It's The Big Game!...but you are stuck working the food stand, a nonsense sports game by Ella Lim. Red paper with all-caps, white text and three white illustrations: a dragon, a banner, and a scowling ball in flight

What made you fall in love with them and do you have any good recommendations?

New work! Six months in the making, created by @anicacihla.bsky.social, edited by @aldermancy.bsky.social, and with art direction from @nohr.se: Sin Eater. A solo game about eating the sins of the dead, passed down through the ages.

Really fucking proud of this one!

Ella is a great game maker, I'm very fortunate to have met her recently and learn from watching her process.

This game is gonna be a banger, I know because I've seen the care she's put into crafting it and getting the tone right.

Just a few more days left to back this, don't mess your chance.

Underneath is Kickstarter for 5 more days! If you've been interested in getting lost deep underground, now is the time to seize the opportunity!
goodluckpress.co Good Luck Press > PAX Unplugged Booth #4059 @goodluckpress.co · Feb 22
Cavernous chambers, strange creatures, bugs, and the remains of lost civilizations are all lying dormant under your feet, just waiting to be found. What’s waiting underneath for you?

A mock up of an open spread of a book on top of a mock up of a cover of a book over a background of marbled paper. The spread is opened to pages that show an illustrated caver hanging from a ceiling. She is dark skinned with afro puff pigtails sticking out from the bottom of her helmet. Underneath her is a section about creating your own character with the silhouettes of 6 people in varying poses. The text on the right page describes the procedures for getting out of the cave. The partially visible cover shows a title that reads UNDERNEATH and an image of a fountain in a cavern room with sharp and jagged walls.
