I'm a working artist and a disabled trans woman who had to flee her home at the start of the year. Seeking a dayjob and permanent housing but donations and support for my studio help keep my bills covered and keep me afloat. Anything helps. ♥️🏳️‍⚧️ Cashapp $robinvbelle ko-fi.com/shrikepublis...

okay in between my two 'adult' releases, i did publish v1.0 of #DODECA, a d12 system for making your own solo and GMless games! here's the link in case u were distracted by my very sexy ttrpgs titanomachyrpg.itch.io/d12

Recruitment is open for the Farm And Garden Center TTRPG Bundle! If you have a TTRPG with farming, the countryside, harvest and gathering, raising animals, or anything similarly pastoral as a theme, consider joining! Deadline is Monday 6/2/25. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Fight City: TURBO is the new edition of Fight City! The whole thing is a #TTRPG homage to the brawler/side scrolling beat 'em up genre of videogames, where the plot is thin, the characters are wild, and the only things you can trust are your FISTS! gbdw.itch.io/fight-city-t...

May update on my cancer, my remission, and my recovery. www.patreon.com/posts/my-can...

Please help us out or share this. Anything helps. We are almost safe. ko-fi.com/justinarevol...

You can buy my games including a sneak preview of Devilition Squad in my latest zine, the Leonthology! Also buy Blazing Hymn online in cyberspace for symphogear reasons. ko-fi.com/peachgardeng...

this was easier than I expected it to be tbh it even came with a lore justification; when you explore a Nightmare, you might get a hazy reflection of another Nightmare-delver, called a dreamling optional ruleset that will be in a separate document attached to the beta release, only 2 pages

Wrote a little about NULL_SPACE, the new name for Liminal Void; thinking about its long-beleaguered combat system and what I landed on for its "basic" incarnation. Combat Without Combat. binarystar.games/posts/origin...

Sunday, I had the pleasure of playing The Seven Part Pact with @jdragsky.bsky.social, Alan of @unicyclegames.bsky.social, @knightattheopera.bsky.social, @luckoftheharbor.com, and a few other folks I haven't found on here yet. Partake of wizard madness. iknowadamseats.blogspot.com/2025/05/a-da...

Unless I find some other horrible error or missing section, beta release soon! At the moment we're up to 118 pages and all systems and subsystems are complete. Content additions and changes, and appearance, are the big things left for beta to do. (ps - graphic design is definitely not my passion)

At long last, the engine for making games inspired by Div Horse is here. It is free. For no cost and no reason, you can make emotionally stark games about the end of a horse marriage. kumada1.itch.io/powered-by-t...

It's the final week of KS for @danielhkwan.itch.io's Wandering Blades! We are about to drop a big update about the essential nature of community including details about CAN shipping, 4 other #TTRPGs to back, Social Stretch Goals & more! Help spread the word or back the game at WanderingBlades.com

Today I got Pandoc and Zettlr to output these flowcharts into PDfs and epubs. Write-up here, if you're interested in this workflow. chrisb.bearblog.dev/how-to-add-m...

The Shapeshifter's Duel: a short story about my experience playing The Seven-Part Pact, created by @jdragsky.bsky.social knightattheopera.blogspot.com/2025/05/the-...

For many years I've been chipping away at a personal Dark Sun project: A campaign setting designed to bring a West Marches game style to Athas. It's finally finished and available for free! 378 pages of sword-and-sandal psychic survival and settlement building adventure. athas.org/resources/cd...

I realised that the best way for me to use these isn't to write them by hand but to auto-generate them from the markdown of my adventures. So I spent a few hours getting Python to do that for me, and I blogged about it for Patrons. www.patreon.com/posts/129863...

I rewrote the call to action for Against the Fall of Night 0.5.

It's not here yet, but it's getting close, so I thought I'd indulge in some hype.

ugh I got got by new medication side effects 💀 but my bday is comin before the end of the month so if you’d like to support an asian trans artist before AAPI month is over AND just in time for Pride month, consider becoming a patron for $3! #indiegames

For the rest of the month, I'm going to ask you all to consider supporting my art! I make stories, games, and other things. A $3 subscription gets you credited in everything I do, and goes sooo far. Tips welcome too! www.patreon.com/c/shrikepubl... ko-fi.com/shrikepublis...

the only way for any character in Against the Fall of Night to actually use these is to be 'wizard who took a little bit of fighter training'. the actual fighter-mage class, the witchblade, will never meet the prerequisites. but writing them let me include 'the target explodes' in rules text.
