KILLER thread about upcoming #Zinetopia projects!!!
Ok, now I've yelled about Blightfall, here's more about #Zinetopia! It's part of Zine Month, an initiative I adore where TTRPG creators put out their weird new games as crowdfunded zines. This is the kind of thing an indie TTRPG hipster like me ADORES. Let's look at some of the projects! (1/15)
