Our roleplaying game:
- squirms with aquatic awfulness
- invites revenge upon King George III
- has diagrams explaining how wind works
- is now funded
- still won't pay my bills (but YOU could change that, maybe)
Please ameliorate my financial terror by backing:

Posting this one again, now without auto-moderation-baiting swearing about Bsky's brutal image compression. I'm sorry I offended the robot. I won't say rude words any more!

As a part of my ongoing series "I Am A Hopeless Fantasy Maps Dork", I did a vid on what a GM is going to be able to get out of the Dolmenwood maps book. I own a whole bunch of fantasy atlases, and I have never seen one quite like this. (I know that's the monster book, it was the better thumbnail!)

If you want to hone in on this skill, working with a set palette is a great way to start. The DB32 that comes default with Aseprite is superb and really encourages you to combine those colors in interesting ways!

The joy of ttrpgs, to me, is that anyone can hack them. After years of hearing people say "wouldn't it be cool if" about digital games and then sighing at the sheer ludicrousness of work involved, a medium where someone can suggest something at the table and then you can just do it, is bliss.
idk i think one of my big goals as a designer is that if you read my book and spend enough time playing , you can absolutely understand and deconstruct the philosophy that was used to make the game. it's not that hard to approach games with a game designer mindset! it's odd to try and gatekeep it

WHAT 😱
Mind Diver is our first game. We're a tiny team. I'm crazy proud of our work: an intimate game we dearly wanted to exist.
But we've had almost no press and few streams, so THANK YOU for the words-of-mouth 😭
*in Recent Reviews, but still, wtf🫣

I used to work at a small shop that made little plastic vampires.
There were only 2 of us working there, so I had to make every second count.

I’m old enough to remember when everybody agreed that higher education was a “market” and offering “choice” was how the universities were meant to grow

You can get it here: badbucket.itch.io/the-beasts-a... A truly lovely thing.
Blown away by The Beasts and Blessings of the Hallow'd Hall by @notquitereal.bsky.social and @badbucket.bsky.social. A perfect mix of the sinister and fantastic, rendered in accessible but authentic archaism, with typesetting and design to match. Peerlessly put together - something to aspire to!
