Did you know that I released a new game this year? Going For Broke is a fast-paced, party roleplaying game that tells sitcom stories about a collective house that's scrambling to pay rent. It's cheap, easy to teach, and takes less than an hour to play. Check it out! buriedwithoutceremony.com/gfb

Happy Y2K

What a nice way to close out the year. My story “I Think She Is Starting to Suspect Something” is in the latest issue of Baffling. This one is the result of me spending a lot of time thinking about doppelgängers (and probably honestly from playing a lot of anomaly detection games).

I hooked up my Kinect to my computer

It’s my birthday this weekend and my wish for 2026 is for me to keep growing in my honesty and work ethic. My art is intertwined with who I am so it’s gonna keep getting weirder and more intense 🎂

I missed the networking discourse, did anyone talk about the fact that during BLM Black creators and academics were reached out to in record numbers and then when we thought we had solidarity it vanished? Which led to many folks suffering representational burn out and distrust for ttrpgs as a whole?

Each time I prep my games to run I think to myself “why did I make a game that is so stupid complicated to prep for”. And then I do it all again.

Genuinely the royalties that I do receive are what help pay my bills, especially when freelance work is slow! It makes a huge difference

I’m so glad @herbfermansclone.bsky.social collects old computers and I collect old VHS tapes so I have photo fodder for my games

For Forgery, I painted 26 chapter headers. For Knockoff, I collaged 23 chapter headers and @robertrichburg.bsky.social collaged 5 (28 in total). For Sample, the finale in my solo journaling game series, I’m photographing 29 chapter headers. Maybe 31 based on player feedback 💀 This is one of them 💎

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries. Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves. "Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks. "No, guess he should've complied," agent says. Yakima, Washington

Just doing an unhinged photoshoot for my next game, Sample, with @producermarkus.bsky.social

Time to settle in for the holidays

Death is only the beginning as Day 18 of #WildMagicAdvanced2E has our party playing The Revenant Society by @bananachangames.bsky.social and @senfoonglim.bsky.social. Want more indie #TTRPG one shot ideas? Keep following along as a new #WildMagicAdvanced2E prompt is posted every day in December!

Forgery and Knockoff by @bananachangames.bsky.social These games about the dark side of art and fashion absolutely blew my socks off. I got to play them for my podcast @agameofonesown.bsky.social and loved every minute. Thematically rich, full of shocks and surprises.

They still need $600 to get funded in 3 days! 🙏

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Holiday party time

Me and @walle132.bsky.social going back and forth on a random weekend

Way back when I was judging for the Golden Cobra Challenge, I remember seeing “FIGHT TRUCK” come up as one of the games. Let me set the record straight that I am 100% pro-FIGHT TRUCK. My biggest regret of my career is not pushing harder for it to win a category www.rascal.news/i-want-to-fi...

What does it mean

Teasing the cover for the final solo journaling game in the trilogy, Sample. Set during Y2K, it’s about a one-hit-wonder DJ who’s trying to overcome a creative block before his set during the ball drop. Like a great philosopher has always said: “The bigger they are, the harder they fall” - Pitbull

They’re so close to funding! If you’re interested in Hong Kong folklore and horror, check out this TTRPG, Mud Ghost Estate.

2025 marks our 20th year in business! In that time we've made a ton of games -- this isn't all of them by a long shot! We're deeply grateful to all the fans who've supported us. To celebrate, save 20% off every single thing in our webstore, now through December 12th. evilhat.com/roleplaying-...

NGL the graphic designers and illustrators put a lot of fucking love into this book

Like 4 people who saw the stream will get this, but this is still the funniest fucking thing to me youtu.be/GPXiL6ynVG8?...

Let's get an indie ttrpg HYPE TRAIN going and recommend some cool games for people to buy/gift. If you're a small #ttrpg creator (or there's an indie game you really love) drop a quick pitch and a link below. 🚅🎲🎲🎲🌟🌟

YEAH LET’S GO

My interview about Undying Fortress is now on the Choice of Games blog! This is my second interactive novel with them and it’ll be published on December 19th. I’ve been half-jokingly referring to it as an academic dungeon crawl. www.choiceofgames.com/2025/11/auth...

Instead of spending $$ on bad deals, why not back Mud Ghost Estate by @wharthur.bsky.social 👻 it’s a horror tower game based on Hong Kong folklore and I can’t wait to see this fund! www.kickstarter.com/projects/wha...

Omg that game in Stranger Things is real

@bananachangames.bsky.social & @senfoonglim.bsky.social ‘s Jiangshi: Blood in the Banquet Hall is so good, everyone. I really enjoyed running it, the players had a blast, and the hopping vampires got to eat everyone when there was a critical failure on the dramatic last roll.

TTRPGS ARE SO HOTTTTT AND THE PEOPLE THAT MAKE THEM ARE SO FRIGGIN BRILLIANT THAT IT MAKES MY HEART EXPLODE 💀 GODKILLER by @byconniechang.bsky.social ✨ A LAND ONCE MAGIC by @vidityavoleti.bsky.social 🧟‍♂️ THE TIME WE HAVE by @moreblueberries.bsky.social

Excited to be talking about a new game coming soon by Sen-Foong Lim, Di Anne Hong, Calvin Wong Tze Loon, Sean Nittner and myself with @evilhat.bsky.social Graphics by @crislv.bsky.social

Me: I had some free time so I decided to watch Dogville Therapist: You decided to watch a Lars von Trier movie in your spare time Me: … Me: It was 3 hours long

2 years ago, I hosted a Mother-themed party at PAXU (the Darren Aronofsky movie). Though I could not attend PAXU this year, I am thrilled to announce that I will be planning to host a Dogville-themed party for PAXU 2026.

Oh heck! This was so fun.

Their goal is not complicated: This is a deliberate strategy to defund and privatize public education in America. This is moving us in exactly the wrong direction. I call on the Department of Education to immediately reverse course and do its job: strengthen our public schools, not dismantle them.

My five little grey cells are struggling to solve a murder today

Thank you @uberginger.bsky.social for the incredible minis for @hellbentrpg.bsky.social! I love them so much

Had another great day of students rolling up characters and building backstories for their characters using the robust and historically based character creation system for “Haunted West” by @darkerhue.bsky.social in service of a project exploring the history of “the West.” #APUSH #RPG #EduSky 🗺️
