Hey, I made a game for @gshowitt.bsky.social's game jam on itch! I've already submitted it, but I would love to get feedback from folks here too! It's pay-what-you-can: ampersandwich.itch.io/witchcar Special shoutout to @cyberelladraws.bsky.social for doodles!

You have gathered to revive someone recently deceased. Will the ritual be successful? What will you sacrifice? Lay the bones and find out in Come Out From Your Grave by Basil Wright, one of the amazing TTRPGs included in the Griot Anthology! #ttrpg thoughtcrimegames.it...

noodling over a bitsy game to make for my partner for our anniversary at the beginning of november... funds are too low for yarn for the gift i wanted to make him but i'd like to make SOMETHING y'know

we made a joke about that last sentence more than once when we were in japan. i'm so excited for a ttrpg that explores the real experience of actually being in that godforsaken station

We've updated the "Make Accessible TTRPGs" zine, cleaner PDFs, removed text backgrounds. It's free and a great starting point to think accessible design. the-lost-bay.itch.io/make-accessi...

it's time for the SOLOTEMBER SALE! for the rest of September, take 10% solo games at goodluckpress.co.

it gets a brief mention but i really don't feel like rpggeek gets enough credit. i won't defend it from not being super intuitive to navigate, but it is SUCH a wealth of information with a LOT of filters and categorization available and i wish the indie ttrpg community would better utilize it

ttrpg about being travelers staying medium-term at a tavern run by retired adventurers who Have History and just kind of being like "goddamn there's SOMETHING going on here and i'm vaguely uncomfortable by the awkward tension but INTRIGUED by the tea that remains unspilled"

When people buy Stewpot: Tales From a Fantasy Tavern and For the Queen together (as well they should), we like to imagine they're playing them together somehow, with the Queen's entourage stopping at a tavern run by retired adventurers who Have History.

Fresh batch of community copies posted for Perils & Princesses, Sweet Revenge and Secret of the Night Market. Get 'em while they're hot! outrider-creative.itch.io

As a heads up to designers, there is a new VTT, Fabled, that reached out to me about putting stuff on their site. They use AI to generate images for things in their store, homebrew images, etc. Avoid them, block them.

Our upcoming #magicalgirls #ttrpg is 12 people away from 100 followers in less than a week! If you enjoy media such as Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Yuuki Yuuna is a Hero, Card Captor Sakura, Persona, and Fire Emblem, you're in for a great time!

What would you do if you knew disaster was inevitable? Last Transmissions lets you explore that question through multiple characters' perspectives, each adding their voice to the station's final moments. #TTRPG #journaling solsroles.itch.io/la...

rounding off the (robust) safety tools section in Hollows with a practical coda

If you're a small press or independent tabletop creator who must soon halt shipments to the US because of Trump's axing the de minimis tariff exemption, I want to hear from you. email: [email protected] or, [email protected] DMs: open

Here's a poster I cooked up for the VIENNA INDIE RPG CON! We're throwing a one-day Indie TTRPG convention here FOR FREE! We're gonna make Vienna a hub for indie games, one spontaneous event at a time And we're giving local artists and designers free table space to sell and show off their work!

August's free 1-page RPG is It Didn't Say Anywhere In The Rules That A Dog COULDN'T Play Basketball, a harrowing experience of being beaten at sports by a golden retriever that shows up 30 years later to ruin your second wedding. Patrons get it a week early here: www.patreon.com/posts/136764...

Orphans! is an all-ages TTRPG inspired by the works of Lemony Snicket, Trenton Lee Stewart, and Edward Gorey. Play as precocious orphans and navigate a world of nefarious and ineffectual (words which here mean evil and useless) adults. veilsedgegames.itch.io/orphans

just got a payout from itch that i requested a week ago. there's a lot of misinformation going around about itch, so i want to be clear that itch is currently allowing me to: - sell my porn work - display it on my profile page - receive money for it

this is not to say that they've been doing a perfect job. frankly, they're a mess. but they are certainly doing more for me than steam is

Before you make your next #TTRPG, check out my free font Polymath, which lets you create a bunch of different dice types in an accessible way: hedgemazepress.itch.io/polymath-dic...

I need folks to understand something: Wanting to do anything creative isn't enough. If you don't enjoy the learning, the process, and the time spent, that means it's just not for you. And that really is okay. Not everything will be a fit for you. There's a reason I'm not a technical writer.

It’s weird to me that people keep starting new Substacks and still don’t know that Substack is extremely bad news Please get off Substack 😭 www.anildash.com//2024/11/19/...

what if instead of calling the itch team slurs and posting grossout images in their replies y'all go yell at steam, an actual capital-c Corporation, for also instantly folding to payment processors

dino family

in a lonely world, i found you!

We've got 25~ games from 12 of the best of the scene; Wanderhome by @jdragsky.bsky.social, @ettin.itch.io's Breakfast Cult and a bunch of its expansions, @fsohns.bsky.social put the breathtaking Zephyr in there and @gilarpgs.bsky.social hit us up with SLAYERS. itch.io/b/3228/the-d...
