We have tied Grant to his desk and he's not allowed to leave until Demigods 3 is ready for you (tomorrow!) We know you need your Game Master Monday fix, so here's what we're cooking up for the holiday season!

Preorders are now available for the GAST #ttrpg horror zine collection! Pick up the box sets + any additional zines from our guest writers @tgimenezrgm.itch.io @mirror-lock.bsky.social & @finleyjinley.bsky.social. The deluxe box also features a game from @glowingroots.bsky.social! Link below ⬇️

Psst....I recorded this today and it was lovely 💓💓

Christmas Eve will be the debut of CHILDREN OF HEAVEN, the brand-new solo drawing TTRPG I wrote for a GAST stretch goal! You play as a homeless child entrusted with a profound secret: God has been thrown out of heaven, and demons stalk the earth. I'm excited to see where GM Justin takes the story!

I cannot stress enough how excited I am, and how much it means to me, that someone will be playing 'Tand Fé' on an AP! 🦷💀🐁 It's my first solo journaling game, the first fully fledged game I've written alone, and combines my love of horror and folklore in a way I'm really proud of!

If you've been excited about what we have in store for GAST: Season 1, then you should give these folks a watch! They are playing FOUR of our SEVEN games and giving them a festive spin ❄️😱

And lastly, in partnership with @hatchedgames.bsky.social, enjoy four spooky solo tales with IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER: TALES FROM GAST Ft. @zoupmachine.bsky.social @shaghik.com @grantorwhatever.bsky.social @4evergmjustin.bsky.social Coming Wednesday in December starting on Dec 3!

If this sounds like you, shoot your shot!

Building up a database of artists/illustrators (especially BIPOC and minority) to reach out to for future collabs/paid work! Looking for anyone who loves drawing horror, folklore, and dark fairy tales, as I've a few things coming up in that field. 💀🪦 Interested? Drop those links and examples below!

I'm happy and excited to share that the music I composed for @hatchlingdm.itch.io GAST is now available on all streaming platforms: Scopaethesia (GAST Soundtrack) Spotify: open.spotify.com/track/4GQufO... Apple Music: music.apple.com/us/album/sco... YouTube: youtu.be/Bb-rAXVgN1o?...

Stay tuned for further information on our upcoming live series! To give you a taste; you can expect ABSURDIA by @quinnmajeski.bsky.social and GAST by @hatchedgames.bsky.social to complete our year! THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONSTANT SUPPORT SEE YOU THIS FALL

Surprise! 🙌💛🥹 I've been working with @hatchlingdm.itch.io for a while now, and adore this team and the games they write. I am SO honoured to get to be a part of it and look forward to working on the INCREDIBLE games we're fulfilling, as well as those yet to come. And boy....do we have plans 👀🤩

Delighted to be welcoming @loremistress93.bsky.social to Hatchlings Games as our new Creative Lead. We’re over the moon to be adding such a skilled and passionate designer, writer, and content creator to the team. Kat will truly help this small ttrpg publisher push on to greater heights!

If you liked Token, my dark fairytale duet game, you’re going to love Bog Berries, a solo folk-horror game I’m almost finished writing for GAST from @hatchedgames.bsky.social! This game also ends with different epilogues depending on how your journey brought you to encounter a monstrous guardian.

And we’re live! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tat...

Absolutely humbled and so encouraged by the INCREDIBLE funding response and support we had for this project. We made over 7 times what we initially wanted to, and GAST is something we are so very excited to bring to this space! Thank you friends 💛

Thanks to everyone who backed GAST, spread the word, and made the last couple of weeks such a fun ride! We didn’t quite manage to unlock that final stretch goal, but we’re so encouraged by the response to our debut project. GAST is alive!

Backer train let’s goooooooo!

I’m so proud 😭😭💛

5 minutes left! Hurry!

10 mins! If 5 more people back at the £85 tier...

We have TEN MINUTES left, and are £400 away! We've officially entered Backer Train territory! 🚂 It would be wonderful to reach the £15K stretch goal, but even managing 7 times the goal we set out to reach is INCREDIBLE and we are so thankful for every single person's support! tinyurl.com/ycx9tkdz

GAST from @hatchedgames.bsky.social A set of horror infused games using the Carta system, but also funds for a start-up of ‘seasons’, each with a different type of horror and SRD. Very excited for this one, especially with a future season being devoted to my favorite sub-genre, gothic horror!

Pocketopia is ending in a few hours, and if you haven’t already, you should definitely check it out! It’s about portable, easy to learn games, and includes extra rewards for backing two partnered projects, as well as a dice bag for backing 6 of them. Here’s a 🧵 of the ones I found most interesting:

Why DO we bargain with our children’s teeth, when dealing with the fair folk…? 🦷🐀🪙

👀 @sateenbonnet.bsky.social frieeennnddddd

The final 8 hours of GAST’s fundraising are upon us, and this boxed set has 7 incredible zines up for grabs?! Check out the below mood boards revealed as we count down to get each game’s vibe! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/h...

GAST is in its final hours of crowdfunding and close to a final stretch goal! This set of solo folk horror RPGs includes one written by myself, and promises an exciting path for more designers to make their own games. @hatchedgames.bsky.social www.backerkit.com/c/projects/h...

Just £800 will see the wonderful folks at @hatchedgames.bsky.social hit their final stretch goal for GAST! Can you help them get over the line?

We have under 24 hours, and we are only £1K away from our final stretch goal. I’m so proud, and so determined to reach it now 😈 please consider backing! Not long left to go!

@hatchedgames.bsky.social's GAST: Horror Zine Collection Season One presents a collection of solo folk horror RPGs built on the Carta system. Additionally, this campaign will help establish Hatched Games, who are planning more "seasons" of horror-themed zines. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/h...

🦇 TODAY 🦇 The 'Dracula: 2004' crowdfunding campaign has officially launched! Why not come aboard and see where the journey takes us (ideally it will be Whitby)? 🧛‍♀️

Only 30 hours left?! 😱

Just a reminder that we only have 30 HOURS LEFT of #Pocketopia to back! AND we are less than £1500 away from our final stretch goal! If you like: - Solo RPGs ✍️ - Horror 💀 - Folklore 🧌 - Supernatural 👁️ Then please consider backing our Season of Carta SRD games! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/h...

GAST is now in its final 48 hours. Any folk horror and solo RPG fans out there who haven't backed it yet I urge you to do so. An exceptional project with great talent behind it. They only have one more stretch goal to reach!

We have made it over that £12K mark! We only have FOUR DAYS LEFT of #Pocketopia! We've one more stretch goal to hit at £15K - funding grants that will allow us to run a game jam and publish the games of some winners! Help us reach 250 backers! 🙌 #horrorsky #horror #ttrpg tinyurl.com/ycx9tkdz

If you didn't know, I'm part of the @hatchedgames.bsky.social team and we are currently funding GAST - a collection of solo folk horror zines. We've made all but ONE of our stretch goals, and the last is NOT to be missed! We are only £2K away! tinyurl.com/ycx9tkdz

Alright! Time for a #Pocketopia update. We have hit the final couple of days before funding ends for these projects over on @backerkit.com, and so I'm about to let it become a huge part of my personality! Here is the list of Pocketopia 2025 Creators to peruse! go.bsky.app/Utk6Xdt

GAST by my friends @hatchedgames.bsky.social is super spoopy and scratches my psychological horror itch just right. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/h...

We're heading into the last two days of Pocketopia, and Sail the Oceans Queer is funded with flying queer colors. We've unlocked the stretch goals for more artwork by the lovely FaelDraws and six pregenerated character sheets. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/l...

Awww thanks Sequaia!!! I’m so honoured to be part of the project with @loremistress93.bsky.social !!!

Get on it folks! What a truly exciting project from some very talented people, including the amazing @loremistress93.bsky.social and @jolenekhor.bsky.social

Just backed this incredible project and I'm very excited to get hold of a physical copy. It's not too late for you to do the same!

We have made it over that £12K mark! We only have FOUR DAYS LEFT of #Pocketopia! We've one more stretch goal to hit at £15K - funding grants that will allow us to run a game jam and publish the games of some winners! Help us reach 250 backers! 🙌 #horrorsky #horror #ttrpg tinyurl.com/ycx9tkdz

Thank you to everyone who has backed, supported, boosted, and cheered us on so far 🙌 You have just one week to pledge - if you’ve been waiting to do so, time is running out!

I called it, and we DID, though it has fallen below it again 🤭 We are at an incredible amount of money, only just over £3K away from our FINAL stretch goal. And less than 30 backers away from 250! One week left, any help in reaching those numbers would be appreciated!

All has been quiet here on the Hatched Games front, our team has taken a break from the crowdfunding drive to avoid burnout. However, being SO close to £12K (unlocking our penultimate stretch goal), and with 9 days left to back - an update thread felt due! Link: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/h...
