Thanks for the great response on this article, #ttrpgcommunity! As I said in the post, I was thinking of exploring the matter even further, maybe with some sort of guide on making a Setting that matters more than the system, and how to tinker with #TTRPG systems. What do you think?

My dear #ttrpgcommunity, I have written another blog post about why, to me, Settings matter more than systems. It also includes my top picks for games you can use with your own setting. Hope you like it! #TTRPGs #worldbuilding #NSR

A couple of weeks ago I made this blog post talking about how setting matters a lot more than systems to me in #TTRPGs. I was listening to Yochai Gal talking with Dieku Games and their interview had me thinking a lot more stuff I would like to add. So, sequel incoming, stay tuned!🖖 #ttrpgcommunity

Just to be extremely clear here: My games (and their little communities) are and will always be a safe space for transgender folks out there. While the current world is a mess, I hope you feel free and safe to dive in my little fictional ones for a bit. #ttrpgcommunity

You know what? I'll just say my hottest take of #TTRPGs: I don't mind people playing settings with games that don't belong with those settings, like people playing "Alien" with Mothership rules. Wanna play STRIGA's setting but wanna use Cairn 2e? Go for it! Games are yours. #ttrpgcommunity

Quick reminder: while I finish the full game, you can still try out the demo for HELLGREEN!🌴 It's a solo RPG where you play as a soldier exploring a radiation-filled jungle with all sorts of anomalies. If you like videogames like STALKER, you'll enjoy this one! #TTRPGs #solorpg #ttrpgcommunity

Got myself a little present 👀 I had a quick reading of Five Parsecs from Home, and it looks absolutely amazing. Looks like I gotta get back on my miniature-painting frenzy! #wargaming #sologaming #miniatures

#Worldbuilding can be quite a therapy-hobby sometimes for me, especially when I just invest all my heart and thoughs in it. So today I made a small colored illustration and an intro for my setting. It's turning out kinda weird and misterious, and I just think it's neat! Yay! #TTRPGs

Solarcrawl: Let's talk art technique! One of my favorite parts of this project is getting to paint the planets. In this case, we begin by drawing each world in pencil, and then hastily washing out the important colors. 1/4

Hey TTRPG Bluesky! I made a starter pack of some of my favorite indie designers and artists. Give them a follow!!! go.bsky.app/UZEN91K

Slapped some color on this! #TTRPGart

As said previously, I started worldbuilding a new setting, and it's coming out pretty nicely. I haven't done anything ground-breaking yet, but it makes me happy and excited. I wake up looking forward to writing and sketching more. This is what matters the most! 💖 #ttrpgcommunity #TTRPGs

Slapped some color on this one, gonna post it tomorrow!

Solar Crawl just funded! And it looks like a veeery solid space game. Really like the "NASApunk" vibes on this one. Go check it out!

When I start making a new homebrew setting for #dnd (or any #TTRPG really) I get so excited that I start making spotify playlists, buying new pens and pencils just for the project 👀 #ttrpgcommunity, tell me I'm not the only one doing these "small rituals" (and tell me yours)

Inks are done on this illustration! What do you think, #ttrpgcommunity? #TTRPGs #ttrpgart #dnd

We’re just normal men

You know what? *Slaps a brand new sketchbook* I'm making a new setting tomorrow and nothing's gonna stop me from doing it. #TTRPGs #ttrpgcommunity

I decided to take a couple of days off to celebrate Hellgreen's achievements (thanks again, #ttrpgcommunity!) We make, but we should never forget to celebrate what we make! So in the meantime, here's a work-in-progress sketch from the game! #ttrpg #ttrpgart #tabletopgames

Today I called out with norovirus and spent some time between barfs working on KARCASS MONS. I managed to make 10 concept sketches for stock PCs to use in playtests. 🧵1/10 This is Glimmer Leap, a Voidling archer and ranger #art #ttrpg #osr #ttrpgart #osrart #fantasyart

Are you a relatively new game designer? Do you have some experience, but you’re in a slump? I made a free, print-friendly resource list and design guide— it applies to a lot more than just the bad moon jam, but if it helps at all the jam’s running until April 1! shoutingcrow.itch.io/bad-moon-guide

Yesterday was a big day for me. However, life decided to send me another gift, and a pretty big and unexpected one too. I am now an uncle for the second time! Welcome to the world Sofia, may your rolls always be 20s. ❤️
