The IGDN 2026 Summer Series kicks off with 𝐈 𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 (𝐁𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐰). Panelists Maddie May, Will Munn, & Matt Best discuss how to make your TTRPGs visually fun and interesting if you don't quite know how to draw yet. youtu.be/sNdkkQhVkPM?... #TTRPGs #indiegames #gamedesign #writing

Second is to go order a copy of my now AWARD WINNING (my goodness) game We Wander Beneath Radiant Lights which is also with Plus One and won Best Setting from @igdn-official.bsky.social! plusoneexp.com/products/we-...

Did you miss the 2025 Indie Groundbreakers last week? Just want to see the Game of the Year? Here it is! youtu.be/qPbR4AZX50g #TTRPG #indiegames

This is laughable, coming from someone who has been winking at the MAGA-aligned separatist movement for years. People who are losing sleep over climate change are not the ones tearing our country apart: we’re trying to save it. This summer Canada could well be burning faster than we can build it.

Catch up on the best of indie TTRPGs!

Winners of the @igdn-official.bsky.social Indie Groundbreaker Awards are being announced tonight, something I've been following for the most remarkable Indie #ttrpgs long since before I was in the industry. It's always a special time.

I'll be there! And I'll try not to break @pangyban.bsky.social 's game. #TTRPG #indiegames

Event registration is open and we're getting everything ready for #Gencon2026. Mark some time to come by the Exhibitor Hall to see all our members' amazing indie tabletop games. We're in booth # 132 again — the same booth as the last few years. #TTRPG #indiegames

1/ This announcement marks the Carney government’s official surrender to the oil and gas lobby.

1/ It’s time to build affordable homes, a national network of public grocery stores, electric buses and an east-west clean energy grid. Not massive corporate AI data centres unleashed without any democratic debate. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Being distracted from my Free Spacer GM Training Manual by Artemis II on every screen.

Got to play Eldritch High with @drgwenmarshall.bsky.social at @breakoutcon.bsky.social last weekend! Made a D&D playing meta PC with a glass skull and TK that became Portal Creation! Awesome fun. #TTRPGs

In case anyone is having trouble finding the venue, @quaidrayn.bsky.social has found this handy how-to guide for making your way from the West Building lobby downstairs to Hall A! The perks of hosting a convention in Hollywood North, I guess...

Prepping ain't easy! 3 different scenarios for 5 different sessions over 2 weeks. Fighting off printer issues and monstrous cats. But its done. I've prepped my Free Spacer and Thaumaturgy games for this weeks @terminalcitycon.ca and next weeks @breakoutcon.bsky.social I hope to see you there!

One of our core principles in planning this year’s IGDN Diversity Scholarship was making sure we had the resources to ensure that every participant would have a positive and meaningful experience (including, of course, cash on hand to pay out grants). itdf.games#scholarship

Applications are open for the IGDN 2026 Diversity Scholarship by the iTDF: itdf.games We have 4 spots for marginalized and underrepresented designers to receive mentorship plus $1000 USD no-strings-attached scholarship! Apply before March 17th, 2026: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

A hot take, but if you want to see more TTRPG based shows, you should be watching Mighty Nein and Vox Machina. Everyone else is going to be looking at their numbers #TTRPGCommunity #CriticalRole

1/ Mark Carney has betrayed all of us by making a pipeline pact with Danielle Smith. A real nation-building project would expand the renewable energy of the future while creating thousands of jobs - powerlines not pipelines.
