You know that kind review you left for an indie game on itch?

The creator read it and it meant the world to them. And they will go on to make more cool stuff because you took the time to say something positive.

Being nice is cool. Keep it up.

We reached the first goal of 20$!
So I added the first extra material to “Runner of the Wastelands“: oracle + spark tables + thread/focus table to tie the oracle to the events, places, characters, and plots that your character is interested in.

September recommendations!
Warmaster (2000): amazing miniatures game, by Rick Priestley, that still thrives as a community game.
Mount & Blade, Warband (2010): video game of adventure and conquest, part RPG, part simulation.

"Runner of the Wastelands" reached its first goal of 20 dollars!!

Between this week and the next one I will be deciding what one more thing I will make for the game. I will probably create​ some solo tools and/or spark tables, as I want to use them myself​ :)

New post! I'm turning “No Peace for the Heathen” into a setting zine for OSR games. Also, I might make a companion wargame/skirmish zine in the same setting. 😌

"Runner of the Wastelands": soloTTRPG actual play, episode 3.
This time with music!
Also, we gave a goal to our runner and more narrative weight to their journey.

Practicing with ink pens. Maybe I'll end up drawing something for my new one-page RPG “Runner of the Wasteland”.

Hey! I'm making a game for the #1pRPGjam.
It's about a courier who transports packages between the last remaining cities in a wasteland.
It's part exploration game, part skirmish game, and part journaling game. #WIP

Bought the "No ICE in California" bundle on itch.io

Lots of neat stuff that I'm excited about reading or playing. Queer games, games about resisting fascism, and others that are just plain good-looking.

Here's a few I'm excited to check out

ID:TRPG, the Indonesian TTRPG community Discord server, has a regular sharing session called BroSis--ie: Ngobrol Sistem / System Chat.

Yesterday I had the privilege to ngobrol with them about @bastionland.bsky.social 's Mythic Bastionland (and OSR-style play more generally). I had slides!

Biggest changes are spelling fixes/added missing items/page links, added text to the back cover, and there's a new character sheet. Also I just ordered 1000 copies. Miru is back babbbyyyyyyy. M2 up next!
