Following the recent article from @rascal.news about Rebel Scrum being removed from DriveThru RPG for "hateful" politics, I believe it’s time for a better alternative; one that truly listens to its community rather than taking advantage of it. Plus, I think I figured out taxes so... 👀

Here's my illustration for the special edition of "Go Straight: La guía definitiva de los beat 'em ups", a book about the story of the beat 'em up genre, published by @heroesdepapel.bsky.social. It was a fun challenge trying to synthesize the vibe of a whole genre in an image.

Modern life with ADHD is so weird. How can you be overstressed and bored at the same time? And which kills you first?

Indie RPG designers; if you are looking for free typefaces, illustrations, brushes, or vectors, you can pick them up at Creative Market. I signed up for their periodic emails and get useful resources about once a month. For example, Amora Display typeface is free. creativemarket.com/gunastudio/2...

Asteroid mining using fleets of small spacecraft, each <500kg delivering 100 kg of water at a time, extracted using microwave heating of regolith: arxiv.org/pdf/1808.05099 It's made possible by a number of very close NEAs that sit within 0.1 AU and only take <500 m/s dV to reach.

Very cool first images from the Vera Rubin Observatory in Chile. But the real science contribution will not be images of galaxies, it will be a "synoptic" survey - scanning the sky repeatedly every few nights. Opening up time-domain astrophysics in an unprecedented way.

For #PaidRPGDay you can buy over a million words of solo-developed TTRPG from me for the low low price of USD $60 ($10 per book). That’s 0.00006 cents per word, which means I only have to sell 16,500 more copies to get paid as much as Hemingway did in 1936. half-apress.itch.io/60-years-in-...

About half of every dollar spent at Tabletop Bookshelf goes directly to independent publishers and creators Another 20-30% goes to promoting their work. Most of rest goes to storing and distributing that work. None of this happened without an audience willing to pay for that work #PaidRPGDay

Do you love small press, indie TTRPGs? Do you want to support the designers and publishers who make them? If you have the means, buy the games and back the Kickstarters? But even if money is tight, you can share the games and publishers you love with people in your circle. 1/2

I'm revealing my big ttrpg project soon, and I need my followers to appreciate why it's taken so long. This week I'm doing my final pass over the (tr)ashcan edition, sitting at 140 pages with no almost art, no GM materials, and minimal setting fluff. It is a big and absurd game for tactics perverts.

Difficult, as I usually don't play multiplayer games and those tend to accrue the higher numbers. But I think: - Final Fantasy 7, 8, 9, 10 probably (over multiple playthroughs) - Civ 4 most likely - RimWorld apparently (at least Steam days 204 h) Seems I have a lot around the 150 mark at least.

I really need to get my ass up and start writing more of the content tables for #StateVector. I love designing the rules, but hate writing down the contents of tables. I mean I chose to have a life path system with various careers, better start writing down more than one career!

Amazing thread and wholeheartedly agree. But to my mind the ones that need to be taught first are the teachers. In my school and uni years I never once saw a teacher not immediately throwing a fit if presented with more correct and up-to-date information. The 70s textbook was right, even in 2005.

So we have workers in the house who need to replace our mains power cable to the house. They said they only need to remove power for half an hour. It's been two hours and they are stuck with a broken and stuck cable under the house and no way to reconnect...

I think for #StateVector I will have to hire an experienced solo rpg designer. I personally can't really get into solo RPGs, so whatever rules I could come up with will never be as good as that of someone who plays them themselves.

It's always curious to me how fans of a thing start to gatekeep said thing to a point where they either actively discourage people from trying the thing or ruin the further development of the thing. It's true for the current #ttrpg discourse as well as with gamers when I worked in #gamedev
