I Could Do This In My Sleep #PocketQuest2025

A tiny cyberpunk RPG about bodily autonomy, labour, and resistance, available now:

www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...
Banner for "I Could Do This In My Sleep," with the tagline: "They stole your every waking hour, now they want the rest." A outline of a head tipped back with mouth flopped open. In place of the eye, a disc radiating beams of red, white and blue light. A two page spread. On the left-hand page, a selection of superhuman cybernetic powers, followed by a red and blue highlighted art work of a delivery biker performing the Akira bike slide. On the right-hand page, a similarly styled image of a armed and armoured security guard walking by a man lying on the ground, and a girl in the background making a derogatory two-fingered gesture. A two-page spread featuring short descriptions and icons for several factions in the game. The left-hand page is brightly coloured and describes anti-authoritarian groups, while the right-hand page is dull and describes a combination of government entities and supporters. A character sheet filled in with a variety of skills and equipment, suggesting a combat medic role.

Pocketquest is live! This year's DriveThru game jam is themed Dreams & Nightmares. Here's my entry, Dreamrunners. You found the ability to be Lucid in Dream - and your creative Spark gives you power. How will your adventures change the Real? #Pocketquest2025

Cropped cover image. A silhouetted figure with glowing eyes plays a guitar, generating clouds of multicoloured smoke, with the title 'Dreamrunners' at the top.

☁️In "A Familiar Dream", you are a Familiar. Your Mage is stuck dreaming and only you (and possibly other Familiars) can save the day!

@writejess.bsky.social and I made a new #PocketQuest2025 game on @drivethrurpg.com!

Time to wake up and smell the cauldron! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...
Image of the cover from A Familiar Dream. Above that title says a TTRPG by jess ross and Jen Vaughn. The picture is a lavendar wall of magic items with some shelves being windows animal familiars are sticking their heads through (a badger, a horse head, a dragon tail). Other items include books, a cat, a skull, a bat, a rose, a a crystal, a besom and of course, the little sign that says Pocket Quest 2025

Rustling Electric Sheep for #PocketQuest2025 @drivethrurpg.com is live! Guided by Firelights (thanks @farirpgs.com) it's a solo #ttrpg that lets you play a cyberpunk dream hacker wandering through the Net. It's two trifold brochures, and uses cards and 2d6! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...
The 'cover' of Rustling Electric Sheep, consisting of the first panels from the two brochures that make up the game. TUTORIAL.EXE is black with green text and a green sheep icon, "A Solo Journaling Game of Hacking Dreams." THE NET is green with black text and a black sheep icon, "Dreams, Data, and Difficulties."

I made a thing for #PocketQuest2025! If you want to play a game where you're a superpowered Dreamwarden protecting their city from enroaching nightmares in an astral plane, then this one is for you.
Promotional image for a tabletop game called Dreamwardens. On the lefthand side, it says "I participated in PocketQuest 2025!" and has a starlit sky in the background.

Using AI to produce writing or art is like asking someone at the gym to lift weights for you.

The effort is the point.

First time seriously attempting NaNoWriMo (outside of the org because they’re a disaster) since 2016 and it’s going really well! Sitting pretty above par at 24k words so far, but wow is it demanding.

Talking a bit about my design philosophy and the creation process for Orange’s 11, my #PocketQuest2024 entry. 🧵Initially; I had planned to make it a Honey Heist hack, and be a game with a DM and role play with a group. But it didn’t quite sit right with the image I had in my head 1/?

When I was finally able to link a heist game idea together with the Carta SRD I had a moment of joy. A breakthrough!

This was promptly followed by despair because it meant having to write 52 prompts.

The joy is back @dtrpg.bsky.social! #ttrpg #PocketQuest2024 www.drivethrurpg.com/product/4751...
A sample spread from No Map, No Plan - some of the obstacles a thief will come across, and some of the Treasure they'll loot! Highlights include "Oh God It's The Cat" and "The silverware drawer, like, the entire thing."
