TTRPG Crowdfunder Tracker Another reminder, I manage a tracking spreadsheet of live TTRPG crowdfunders! If your game is not on here, let me add it for you! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

TOMORROW shorturl.at/MbEtK πŸ©·πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ©·πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ©·πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ©·πŸ’›πŸ’™

Our latest puzzlehunt Poached Eggs is now available! www.lockwoodimmersive.com/poached-eggs

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN! For #PICOrpg, I mean, in terms of the time we have left on the #kickstarter. 2 days, in fact! Not the song. But it is a good song. And great for these #ttrpg crowdfunding situations! www.kickstarter.com/projects/myt...

the layout of this is so sharp!

Happy holidays ya filthy anklebiters: here's a $1 subscription

LOVE FOR THE LOVE GODS "Cabin in the Wood" but for Hallmark Movies. Ever wonder why all those TV specials are so formulaic? Well there's a reason for that! A huge, cosmic, reality-shattering reason! The Love Gods demand Love! And only you can maintain the ritual! Follow the Love at shorturl.at/MbEtK

posting a ttrpg take on here is the equivalent of 3 cups of coffee injected directly into the brain

the idea that ttrpg's are not storytelling hinges on a very narrow definition of what a story is. we are storytelling every day. your own life is a story you tell and retell and reshape. you tell stories in every word you speak. your memories are stories.

One must imagine Sisyphus happy to be talking about story and TTRPGs again

oh no oh no I started questioning whether my game needs a gm, the pandora's box of ttrpg design has been opened

I have a little bundle where you can buy three of my games for the price of two. we could call it a black friday sale if you want. it's not, the bundle deal is forever, but like, we could call it that if it makes you feel more like shopping over the next four days itch.io/s/139076/one...

47 hours left on Transgender Deathmatch Legend II's BackerKit campaign. TV time remaining. No count outs. Not holds barred. There must be a winner. (www.backerkit.com/c/projects/r...)

well I left the city with a bundle of frustrating half-ideas and returned with something almost ready to playtest. guess I just needed some nice long walks in the woods. 🌲

The secret to a good layout? Good writing and good typography. If either of those are bad, your rpg's layout will look bad. This week on Explorers Design, I delve into typography. How to set it up, pair it, and why. I cite a lot of sources. #ttrpg www.explorersdesign.com/typography-1...

the woods are still very green 🌿 (also I saw a beaver)

game design is 90% naming things. anyone have a shorter word for impatience/frustration? looking for a name for a track, something 8 letters or less, seperate from anger/rage.

whaaaaat oh my god that's wild well if you insist Heat of the Battle, the third and final (for now?) ONLC game is up, joining her sister games about parties and heists. How will YOU spend the night before the battle you might not come home from? jen-adcock15.itch.io/heat-of-the-...

At some point, if all goes well, you stop taking pride in arcane knowledge about niche topics and you start taking pleasure in sharing your passion with as many people who are obviously interested as possible. Our time here to learn and live is brutally short. Don't keep gates. Hold them open. Wide.

disappearing into the forests of ontario for three days, if you need me just get an owl to screech outside my window at exactly midnight and I'll startle awake
