@jpcoovert.bsky.social 's new vid is extremely inspiring! Following along @exeunt.press 's Make Your Own One-Page RPG zine he makes a new game! Love the idea of keeping the math to a minimum.

What do you consider to be a perfect movie? (Grosse Pointe Blank)

Do you believe in magic, by the lovin' spoonful.

had an idea for the pondus ttrpg. what do you think? I love games where you can walk away with a token or a physical memory. Especially if it's something you crafted. What if, you had to draw your own spells on blank cards? Seems if I stylize cryptaglyphs, you can draw em how you wish!

Art AND games in one? 10/10 love @arlinortiz.bsky.social 's work. can't get enough!

Due for another photoshoot. it's hard to have something pretty to show instragram every day. Pretty proud of the player boards in the Miru Hex Kit. Replaces the paper character sheet. It's not until you translate an RPG into cardboard that you realize how much you can pack in a book!

Good news: Dan Da Dan is getting a third season. The announcement came shortly after the show's second season wrapped up yesterday.

Last day to preorder!

In Ruins is a tabletop game where players use cards to craft a dungeon before they're forced to make tough choices about what gets to stay.

having a lot of fun making some custom glitchy texts. 40 layers later we end up here. bit tedious, but i like the result. zoomed out it's just small part of the page, might come off as a printing error even. not a defect, just a weird artistic choice.

Ok, i'm not a tech guy and it's tricky for me to solve bts computer issues. BUT I just tested out putting digital downloads back on miru and it worked! no empty zip! So now we don't have to rely on itch! That's exciting. Just be sure to sign in before you check out. I'll keep tweaking away at this.

My favorite solo game is now being sold at my favorite TTRPG store

NEW ARRIVAL: MIRU I from @mimicpublishing.com @hinokodo.com is an analog adventure game where you explore uncharted territories, survive thrilling situations, and search for treasures while you hunt down a god for revenge 👀👀 tabletopbookshelf.com/products/mir...

May Alora be with you

yeah checking itch and your work on getting digitals on your site has definitely lit that fire in me to do the same. Gotta be a way to make that work for wordpress without sending people empty zip files... if anyone has any tips... would appreciate!

I'm making a game called "The MIRU Hex Kit". It's the physical edition of MIRU. No pen or paper needed. Also great as a ttrpg table prop. One of the most exciting aspects of it to me, is our plastic-free approach of using cardboard drawer boxes for storage! They can be taken out of the box! Modular!

Glatisant is live on Kickstarter! 🛡🦌🌿 Your adventure awaits. Back in the first 48 hours and you’ll get a free linocut print of the sword and branch design, handpulled by @oddsandents.bsky.social. Help make this game a physical reality! tinyurl.com/bd949nbv

I won this game as Robin hood. The king of thieving wins babbyyyy. Interesting game, the way rules are worded get in its own way (for me). Love the tug of war, back and forth area control of it. Action selection is also turn order? Genius. A plain language edition would be great. ♥️ 🏹🪙👑

Ah! Kaiju in the valley! #earthbornerangers #boardgames

ok, played around & ended up here: Use this image as a template. Image size is 94x27.5mm (scale this however you want in pixels) Pink & Blue bars are cut off when bluesky crops. Desktop crop- Pink. Mobile crop -blue (pixel 7 anyways). Generally, don't put anything in the colored zones.

BIG NEWS! Moon Rings playing card decks are available now! Edition of 100, standard 52-card deck. Can be used for playing Moon Rings or for any reason you'd use a card deck. Get them from the game's itch page. Shipping to the U.S. only atm Please share! junkfoodgames.itch.io/moon-rings

later half of playtest sunday. roomie suggested we print a gamer's planner. So i've been playing with that idea all day. 6 month planner, room for notes on games you played and how you feel about them. Habit tracker in the back to see your plays all year. dateless so start whenever. 7 dif colors

Happy prototype Sunday 🌞 Today I think I stumbled on a new game for Card&Coin. Idk if I can explain with limited character counts. It's trick-taking. Each round is 3 sub rounds. Play a card face down. Then a central card is revealed. After 3 cards, players flip 1 card for their trick....

From the NY times. People talk with a nameless God. Couldn't even be bothered to name it. Who do you go to? Chatwithgoddotai ofcourse. In MIRU, an AI takes over the world and claims to be a god. 2 criteria to be a god: 1.You have to have the ability to give people eternal life. 2.Rules to follow

Don't have dominos to direct your caravan? This game comes with a set of paper dominos designed by @hinokodo.com

building up to work on the atopia post newsletter more often. I really like a newsletter with a theme. Goal would be to talk about the going ons of 'atopia' and the sights seen. Had an idea for banners, a small globe with 4-5 buildings. What games have we played? the game shop banner shows. etc.

You have 16 million minutes left. What are you spending them on?

Hypothetically, say you have a billion seconds left, What are you spending them on?

It's 2125 and a robot kills your brother. Is it time to kill a god?

I think she's tired of waiting on me to go bed. She only looks like this after midnight.

Here's two games in action with some of the new expansion tiles. It's quite the beauty. In one game we ignored a chunk of the map and threw some trains off a cliff. In the other we ran track through a field of flowers and by a waterfall and made a huge loop for big cashhhhhh.

Quick question (especially for publishers) with board games, I've noticed many of them separate the solo rules. And I find this so strange. It's not fun to have two books open to play a game (especially when they're the size of the box). This feels like a solo player had no input on that decision.

Gila needs a fridge! Ours just died and we've got food to save, including the baby's! I'm running a short sale on itch right now to raise funds. 10% off everything, or $100 for the whole collection. Every bit helps, thanks! itch.io/s/160089/gil...

書店「文喫 栄」さんにて、ボードゲームの企画展が始まりました。愛知のゲームブランドが集合！アトリエミーミルの商品も購入できます（2025年9月8日〜29日まで） An exhibition showcasing tabletop game designers from Aichi Prefecture is now open at the bookstore ‘Bunkitsu’ in Nagoya!

I made a new edition of the project tracking calendar. hinokodo.itch.io/text It trades diagonal text for horizontal labels and is a little more limiting on projects, but fits on an 8.5x11. could potentially be expanded if you're keeping it digital.

Had fun earlier this year with the wyzard designs for PONDUS. Leading up to the Oct 26' KS campaign, might make a pondus ttrpg. Been researching a bunch lately. Dice rolls really bumming me out (and not being able to read most ttrpgs that are popular) Working on a mancala mechanism for 'tests'.

Just paid $6300 in tariffs for a shipment. American businesses pay the tariffs. So then I have to raise my prices…so who really pays?

updated the icon we use for the Atopia discord. Based on our little mailman character for the newsletter. (which i will eventually start writing I'm sure soon) He's just a little happy four eyed globe. Living his best life trying to share the good news.

It's mail day here at the @mimicpublishing.com offices. We are a one (EV) car household and I don't often have it. So we ship once a week usually. (Often I'll have to carry quite the load to the car 😭🤠📨) I think of it as our green initiative. Not as fast as I'd like, but you work with what ya got.

Did you know MIRU I (2025 edition) is available in the UK? It is! Not through mimic's site, but through @shop.peregrinecoast.press ! We smuggled the books across the ocean just in time and now our favorite British people (and other Europeans) can kill a god too. peregrinecoast.press/en-us/produc...

@asterisk-games.bsky.social The day has arrived! The Expansion for the Lost Atlas is live on KS! A very approachable train game, but heavy with strategy. The expansion adds ways you can drive your trains off a cliff, through a park, or even through a black hole! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ast...

Tariffs aren’t just affecting board games or TTRPGS. They’re affecting every hobby, according to this snapshot look from @404media.co www.404media.co/its-just-a-m...

More publishers are posting about their games! "I'm the CEO" by Suki games seems to be a remake of another game called "the 7 seals" where you bid for tricks by taking colored tokens (matches suits) and as you play you try and shed the tokens. Seems clever!

Starts October 1, 2025. 🎃 #MÖRKTOBER #MÖRKBORG #TTRPG

I have a few @buttonshy.bsky.social games, but it's not exhaustive so stop me if this exists. You score the cards facing you in your hand. Each turn you play a card, and everyone has to flip cards that matches an element. (say all Xs flip) after 3 turns each, you score points facing you. repeat 2x

✍️ I'm working on a piece for the next issue of The Soloist about journaling tips for solo RPGs. What do you find useful when keeping a record of your solo play? Would love to here your ideas and resources. #Soloist #soloRPG

You can now pin posts & save them for later, so save this post for later and look at it every once in a while: You matter. What you do and make has meaning, the games you create and the comments you give. You touch lives in ways you may not even see. You help make the world a little bit brighter ✨

Tried to read the rules for a very popular TTRPG last night and my brain melted and I got so frustrated and couldn't get past the first paragraph. Either I'm really broken or the way this was worded was broken. Is there a TTRPG for babies guide anywhere? I need hand holding and explaining.

Happy prototype sunday. Today's work is about GLITCH, a tricktaking monster dueling card game. Here's some cards! Small 18 card decks, you bring 2 and some ghosts to the fight. A TRICK deck and a GLITCH deck. Players take 1 action on their turn, and occasionally someone triggers a TRICK round. alt
