We're working on a new season of Adventuring Academy! 📋

If you have a question for Brennan and this season's guests to talk about, you can submit here!

Adventuring Academy Question Submission
Another season of Adventuring Academy is on the way! Got questions you want Brennan and the guest to answer about TTRPGs, D&D, actualplay, comedy, performing, improv, and whatever else? Submit 'em here! Note: please no questions about Dimension 20, sequels to existing seasons, or questions directed at Brennan. These will not be used. The more specific the question, the better! (e.g. don't ask "How do I get better at ____?")

Great web-template for ink stories; nicely designed with a lot of out of the box features!
I have a big backlog project written in Ink, which stalled a while back as I couldn't quite get everything I wanted working. I was looking through the InkJam resources list and this web template was listed.

Does pretty much everything I need!

I saw some folks thinking that voice acting in games was objectively good, always a positive. "What kind of game doesn't have voice acting in 2025?!" sorta thing

I say that there are positive reasons why one would choose NOT to have VO.

How many design justifications we can come up with?

Upcoming inkle-shaped things:

- Adventure X! We'll be there with a talk about stories, and a demo of Expelled!

- A new game! More info on that VERY soon

- A book about narrative design by over a hundred narrative designers and writers! Sort-of an accident. Coming early next year

Be careful when exploring the moon base operation and always be sure to update your loadout as you explore and level up.
