you don't get too many FATE hacks these days but this French production from @mauditvillage.bsky.social just caught my eye (scroll down as it's in English too), especially for the cover/GM screen art by BXL (hurrah!) based artist Coralie de Bondt. just stunning!

Yeah, I've got my own crowdfunding, but I can't not mention Apocalypse World 3e.
Apocalypse World is one of the most influential games to arise out of the innovative indie side of gaming. It's literally created a whole subsector of the industry: Powered by the Apocalypse. A 3e is huge news.

This zine is by our VR/AR/immersive specialist @arinbb.bsky.social, who collaborated w/an English prof this past year teaching students writing concepts by having them build a MUD (text-based game/interactive fiction where you describe spaces etc you see in writing). Link to download zine +
When I was at @scholarslab.bsky.social last week, I snagged a copy of this zine to give to my sister. We both played around on muxes and muds back in the day (aka the 90s).
Anyone remember MicroMuse?
(Also, I need to get a copy of the file so I can print this for some of my friends from those days)
