brewisttabletopgames.itch.io/a-change-is-... Here's a one page game I wrote for design practice. Play as a very hungry larva preparing for their change. Utilizes mechanics similar to depthcrawl procedures. PWYW. I drew the larva.

So living with my parents abruptly became unsafe (mentally/emotionally) and I'm leaving ASAP. I have somewhere to go, but it's out of state. I'm packing now but I have to register my car before I go and that's $500. Anything helps. 🫀 Venmo: probablyharmless PayPal: theohillwriter at gmail

Needing to finish a pre-tariff Kickstarter through tariffs is looking like it’s going to tank our business savings. It /feels/ like starting over, but I know we’re not. It’s been a stress tho. Trying to make enough to square that, then finish another big project with a tiny budget is daunting.

We see the end of the story. Not our story, but an ending none the less. Come along with us for episode 1 of The Ballad of Heartwork. With @thatsrickperry.bsky.social, @taylorannnx.bsky.social, & @rahrah.bsky.social. Available wherever you get your podcasts.

Gearing up for The Thunder Perfect Mind going live on Kickstsrter by posting some of my film influences. If you see something you like, give the KS a follow! 🧵

A topic that comes up with my games is that they seem one way on the page, but then “reveal themselves” when played. This is an intentional part of the design! I think games are a more powerful experience if they don’t show what they’re really doing until you spend some time with them at the table.

i'm available for commissions — personal and commercial work — send me a DM or email [email protected] to talk details. finances are tight and my queue is empty for now, so if you need b&w art, drop me a line

realized #HC2e didn't have a Vending Machine yet so i knocked that out as part of the difficult work of revising the broader Cash section. this stuff is fun to write!

Hey y'all. I had to leave my dayjob recently, so it is a *great* time to buy my games or subscribe to my Patreon. I'm gonna be okay, but I'm out of work until I get something else lined up. I've got a few leads, but things are shaky. My work's at BrewistTabletopGames.itch.io.

patreon.com/MossPowers An update on my 2026 projects at my Patreon, and a teaser zine for patrons. Patreon is one of the most direct ways to help me as a designer, and you'll additionally get periodic looks at rare projects, early drafts, and more. If you like what I do, consider subscribing!

Just going to repost this roughly once a month until it actually happens

after nearly a month (!!!) of waiting, the v2 prototype deck for goblins finally got here. which is good, bc my font sizing is waaay off. now it’s time to playtest and make some cool game collateral (printable playmat anyone??)

SO excited to see Jocelyn return to the captain’s wheel in another voyage of HELLWHALERS! And I cannot wait to meet this new crew and see what wretched sinners have fallen from grace.

Just in time for New Year's Eve, here's my take on Jean-Paul Sartre's classic French drama NO EXIT... but in #LARP form! This is my first attempt at the genre, written for @metaparadox.bsky.social's #LitformLARPJam over on itch.io

Starting on Wednesday, January 7th… Hell is other people. twitch.tv/thetipsytiger @helpactionneeded.bsky.social @maiasgameroom.bsky.social @castlewrites.bsky.social @ perchance2dream Hellwhalers is by @brewisttabletop.bsky.social and @boguscheesecake.bsky.social

I hadn't posted about it yet, but I got my copy of HELLPIERCERS recently, and damn if it isn't a rippin' game. The art is wild, the layout is gorgeous, and the rules are maximalist tactical goodness. Excellent work from @sandypuggames.bsky.social and the team. sandypuggames.itch.io/hellpiercers

If you’re trans you gotta survive and thrive. If you think you’re trans but are scared of what that means for you, you gotta survive and thrive. If you’re trans and scared right now, it’s ok, but you gotta be brave. I adore you my siblings in love. Let us keep going. Be the light to someone else.

Happy new year! 🎉🎊 They're not gonna make our future for us. We must make it ourselves.

Tonight is TTRPG NewYears with my partner and a couple friends. We're choosing between Trashtronautica or Cozy Town. We'll be TTRPGing through midnight here on Pacific time, so I hope all the lil gay ttrpg people in my phone have a good and safe holiday.

HIGH AT THE CONVENIENCE STORE Rifle through your pockets to figure out your next move: - loose change: you HOLD UP THE LINE OH GOD EVERYONE CAN TELL - keys: if you forget to manually breathe you will DIE - rolling paper: you have to ACT NORMAL or the clerk will think you're SHOPLIFTING

There should be a new tradition where every new year's eve to new year's day cis people give trans people money For prosperity and good fortune and sin atonement and good vibes

Once I have project budget freed up, I wanna get some developmental editing work on Infinite Reverie. It's /good/, but it could use some sprucing. I've just gotta finish out some stuff I've got tied up from 2025 first.

Something I've been quite enjoying as I finish up 2025 is developmental editing. So if you're looking for a developmental editor in 2026 for a game... FUCKING PAY ME LET ME BE YOUR SICKO FOR THIS HIRE ME HIRE ME HIRE ME

Looking for an animator who can make custom 90s anime intro videos for Wreck League™️ Premier Mech Combat Entertainment

I did improvised singing??? In an Actual Play??? for the first time ever and I didn't suck ass and I'm not going to shut up about it anytime soon thank you. Go listen to Last Train to Bremen on One Shot and then go congratulate @rpgmajor.bsky.social on their major arc finale for their campaign!!!

Each player has $2000, a hardware catalog, and a Toyota Corolla. Make the most obscene battlecar you can manage on budget with the catalog. Think oil slicks, circular saws, and other 007 shit. Discuss whose car wins the demolition race.

2025 was definitely not my year, but there were wins. Mostly clawing my way out of the hole that 2024 cast me into. Crowdfunded two major projects well above goal. Spent a lot of the year making art and loving. I can always complain, but I won’t here. It was a year of appreciation.

Sit in a circle with 5+ people. For 30 seconds, communicate only with your eyes. Then turn around and cast a vote for who should be voted out of the circle. The last 2 people have to smooch (good ending) or hold their breath longer than the other to win (bad ending).

“Bugs Island” mapmaking game. pour a big ass glass of juice on the floor. draw its outline around it. leave to dry. you’ll get bugs. they are the inhabitants of the island you’ve made.

THE DEATH OF MME EGLANTINE Invite three friends over to your house to play a game, "The Death of Mme Eglantine". Tell them you've invited four players. See how long you can keep your friends waiting for the final player. The first player to leave your house wins.

put a shuffled deck of cards in one pocket, and as many dice as you can fit in your other. when you encounter another duelist, reach in your pockets & 3-2-1 draw a card and roll a die. what you pull from your left pocket is your defense, your right pocket is your attack. winner gets the spoils

Drawing skellingtons at the bar. There are worse things in life. Bonus points to anyone who recognizes him.

it's finally FINALLY time: INFINITE REVOLUTION, my star-powered, zodiac-inspired exosuit dogfighter RPG, is finished, crowdfunded, and publicly released!! Spin up your Revolver Drive, defend the stars, fall in love, burn up, and remember—THE ONLY THING BRIGHTER THAN YOU IS MORE OF YOU🌠 Link ⬇️

This video was an absolutely beautiful look at this thing that we love so dearly. Thank you for all the amazing work, Aaron. And thank you to all the contributing voices and talents that made it possible. Games are so human, and I'm so happy to share this hobby with all of you.

My End of Year video is on the "Golden Age of Indie RPGs," from roughly 2010 to 2025. I start with Apocalypse World's release, work through the Google+ Era, and follow design lineages and historical events that have impacted the hobby up through 2025.

We're about an hour and a half out from the End of Year Video dropping and I did want to share some stuff that got cut from interviews. For instance, I didn't end up using a lot of my first interview with Jay Dragon, on account of how I didn't know what the essay was yet, but here are some outtakes:

Hi new people, here's a little about what I do! I also have a brand new website/webstore at blinkingbirchgames.com

Reminder: It’s not being ‘overly sensitive’ or ‘dramatic’ to call out sexual harassment.

Humanity is just so full of hotties. Just… What a range! Holy fuck, honestly.

I want games. I want games friends. I want a games group. My regular friendgroups are extremely LARP entrenched, and it turns out, that means they rarely have any time for ttrpgs.

If you’re in the market for a low effort New Year’s resolution, can I suggest “removing ‘content’ and ‘content creator’ from your vocabulary”? The artists and entertainers you’re referring to deserve better, even and especially if you’re using it to refer to yourself and your work

I've been thinking a lot about Batfam headcanons, cozy roleplay in D&D, and what it means to assert whether or not a game supports a certain kind of play. So I wrote down my thoughts and turned them into an inaugural post on my new itch blog! seraphim-seraphina.itch.io/my-blog/devl...
