I've making regular blog posts on the next Dungeon World 2 Alpha. Here is today's post: www.dungeon-world.com/conflicts-or...
Conflicts & Origins: Making Compelling Characters
One of the main appeals of tabletop roleplaying games is the practice of creating a specific character—their strengths, weaknesses, past, personality, and more—and then expressing and exploring that c...

Evening bump for my latest video!
My End of Year video is on the "Golden Age of Indie RPGs," from roughly 2010 to 2025. I start with Apocalypse World's release, work through the Google+ Era, and follow design lineages and historical events that have impacted the hobby up through 2025.

Apocalypsr World is the oddly forgotten Pbta game. If even just for the GM section, you owe it to yourself to get it.
Here it is. The final 24 hours. You've helped coax banked embers into a steady flame. Tell me, what is one thing you'll bring with you into What-Comes-Next? Seeds? Thread? A good kitchen knife? What will you make of what's left? Together, let's light up the world.

My local library notified me that @jacobgeller.com 's How a Game Lives was just added to its e-book collection, and I managed to be the first in line to borrow it. Looking forward to reading it!

New free game alert!

"Posting Through It"
A playful futures game that explores how social media has redefined what it means to “win” and “lose” in uncertainty.

I co-designed Posting Through It with @randylubin.com, so grab it over at his Itch page:

I made a cake! A vanilla sponge cake with ginger cream and chocolate canache. This is a cake I've eyeing for about a decade after seeing Gordon Ramsay's video on it. This year I finally made it as a belated birthday gift for myself!

Y'all this game is really fantastic!
[share this to win a rare physical copy of the original zine format]

DEEPEST VALLEY is a hand-drawn fantasy strategy game for hanging out with 2-5 friends.

Five realms battle for control of a valley sunk so deep into war it might swallow them whole.

@markerslinger.bsky.social and I had a great chat at Gen Con and I can't stop thinking about the way dungeons form in the world he's building. It's incredible.

I'm at Gen Con (for the first time) if anyone else is and wants to say hi. Most of my time will be spent at Booth 2708.

@gages.garden Hi Gage, I'm trying to send you the Dungeon World 2 alpha, as you signed up to playtest it, but your DMs aren't open to me. Can you message me and I'll send it to you? Thanks!
