Hey everyone, I'm Moss, a queer indie #ttrpg and #boardgame designer. I mostly make games about my own anxieties with a small team under the banner 'Brewist Tabletop Games'. I'm also available for editing and consults on ttrpgs. DM me for more info! More below.
Randomly possessed by the writing demons tonight. 30 pages of pretty good work on a project that I'm actually supposed to be working on? We take those.

One of the TTRPG conflict design principles that's fascinated me for decades has been peoples' attempts at simulating "reaction-response speeds" and how different writers tackled it. Full disclosure: most of these attempts ended up leaving me cold for one reason or another. A short thread.

as if it was needed, this is proof that @jeffstormer.gobirds.online is one of the most thoughtful actual play creators in this space. not just a great memory, but an attention for detail and a care for the art.
How many games does @jeffstormer.gobirds.online recognize from ten years of TTRPG podcasting?
It turns out, 97 of 100 💯
Sorry #PAXU, that's the score to beat!

a game for 2, play safely

1 is Phantasm
You wish for Flesh, to be corporeal
You need consent
You may: Announce, Search, Tease, Devour

2 is Flesh
You wish to be devoured, impossible to disentangle
You may: Run, Exhibit, Bait, Yearn

Find each other, willingly

In case you missed it, I just launched a pre-order campaign for my upcoming 100+ room, 5 level dungeon The Castle Automatic.

Instead of doing a "traditional" Kickstarter, I opted for a pre-order campaign through Exalted Funeral instead. We're calling it the Early Worm campaign.

Why?

What's up, y'all! I'm Quinn, a writer and TTRPG designer with a knack for horror—but I can tackle any genre/format you throw my way. I'm on the lookout for paid writing gigs, big or small. My turnaround time is pretty quick, and my rates? Honestly, probably too low.
