Let's go on a character building journey! Roll a d6 to meet our cast of characters and their initial motivation. We'll find out their personalities, name them and then move onto the Biome where our settlement will be located. Let's discover who survives together #ttrpg #indie #charactercreation

Join me on a character building journey using my game Settlers of After. We'll be making a small community setting out to build a new settlement. The trek will be perilous and not all the characters will survive. How will our story play out? Let's jump right in by finding out our Motivation.

Someone actually downloaded my game Lehn! feels good to see some interest in something I made :D impisus.itch.io/lehn #indiettrpg #ttrpg

I'm looking for input Your table has ~2-4 inactive player characters back at your base. When your active characters return home roll to see what happened back home. Each event provides questions to prompt relationship developments between characters for good or bad.

I'm exploring the style of the rulebook for Settlers of After. I thought a showcase of the community/character creation would be a fun way to try out some designs. I'm going for an illuminated manuscript vibe. I'd like it to be #grimdark with a tinge of hope. Love to hear your thoughts! #indieTTRPG

Working on the style for Settlers of After rulebook. I'm landing more on this on this greenish one. #TTRPG #SurvivalCraft #worldbuildinggame

Been cooking up a GM‑optional TTRPG where you run a fantasy shop using tarot + dice. I’d love play testers to try it & share feedback on how it runs. I can teach the rules, but you’ll play without me. Interested? #TTRPG #IndieRPG #TabletopGames #AskACreator

I've been having fun making mechanics for my TTRPG fishing game, but I'm not sure where I want to take it scope -wise. Should it just be a plug and play system that is entirely system agnostic,or should I add build out a system for those looking for something more indepth?

Lately I've been working on fishing mechanics for ttrpgs. I already made one for 'standard' fishing, but now I'm working on fly fishing. Feelin' pretty good about my progress so far. #ttrpgmechanics I'll explain the fly fishing mechanics in a thread.

@dicefunctional.bsky.social You had asked about fishing mechanics a few days ago and I feel I have something to report. Mind you I'm in the processes of testing these mechanics, but I feel I've got a good start. [1/5]🧵

Looking for a game where every choice is a balance between risk and reward? Where you dance along the knife's edge of success or failure. 'Lehn' features a fun Push and Pull system, perfect #storytellers, #politicaldrama fans or those eager to bounce #characters off one another. impisus.itch.io/lehn

My #WIPWednesday is a fishing mechanic. I'm a big fan of fishing in video games and I wanted to capture that general feeling in a #ttrpg setting. Hook a fish > fight to reel in > Capture (weight/length) If anyone is interested in testing shoot me a DM and we'll roll some dice and catch some fish.

Hey #ttrpgcommunity, I don't suppose anyone would like to help me 'find the fun' in a fishing mechanic I'm working on. This would have to be performed through DMs or Discord as I'm currently at work. If you're interested in helping me out grab a d6 and maybe a d4.

Come dance along the knifes edge between success and ruin. Will you risk it all on a big payout or play it safe for political gain? Dynamic push and pull dice mechanics mixed with tarot-driven storytelling makes every scene immersive and weighted by risk and reward. #ttrpg impisus.itch.io/lehn

In Lehn Players dance along the knifes edge between success and ruin. Will your tavern risk it all on a big payout or play it safe for political gain? Dynamic push and pull dice mechanics mixed with tarot-driven storytelling makes every scene weighted by risk and reward. #ttrpg impisus.itch.io/lehn

Hey folks, I'm trying to figure out a bell curve for dice combinations rolling equal to or higher than a second set of dice combinations. For example what is the likely hood of rolling equal to or higher than a d4 when rolling 2d4, 1d6, 1d6+1d4, 2d6, 1d8, 1d8+1d4 up to 2d20. #mathproblem #dicemath

Lehn is now on itch! A #ttrpg about balancing success or ruin. With dynamic dice mechanics and tarot-driven storytelling, every scene challenges you to balance risk and reward. impisus.itch.io/lehn If ya can't afford it, ask and I'll provide a free copy.

Got the start of my new fishing mechanics going. I figured some rules around hooking a fish and a means to 'fight' the fish as you reel it in. Right now I'm testing to find the fun and see about tweaking numbers to better fit the game feel of catching a fish. I think it's a good start.

"I can't afford to buy an indie #ttrpg, so I can't play them!" This is your reminder that almost every single indie designer i know will just send you a copy if you email them and say "hey, I can't afford your game right now but i want to check it out!"

@worldbuildcast.bsky.social as world builders I'm curious if you'd be interested in playing my TTRPG Lehn (for free, of course). I feel you'd enjoy the tarot prompted world building it features. Not looking for advertising or anything like that. Just looking to share my game with like-minded folks.

@inkeyjay.bsky.social into tarot and table top games you say? I'd be happy to give you a copy of my game Lehn if it interests you. Just need a tarot deck and D6s.

My big problem with the #IndieTTRPG spaces is that nearly everyone is creating something, so 90% of posts are just us marketing at each other Then a lot of reposts are just us reposting each other trying to get others to repost us It all feels so.... insular Is there a way out of this bubble?

Lehn has a unique GM tool called Beats. They are used to interject complications into a scene. To make these complications matter Beats also have Impacts and the threat of dice attached to them. As a general rule more dice = bad. Lehn is a #ttrpg about owning a tavern and balancing the odds.

#ttrpgcommunity Do you do actual plays of indie ttrpgs? Do you know of actual plays with a focus on indie ttrpgs? I want to listen/watch! Where can I find you? What are you playing?

Question for any & all #paleontologist How do we know what a given dino or other ancient creature ear would look like? Or maybe the better question is how would a paleontologist know what a cat (as an example) ear looks like just from the remains of a skull?

Tanya is great! They have a wealth of knowledge and are a pleasure to learn from. Also, Plain sailing games are great! Two great things great together. Check em' out!

Similar to Brindlewood Bay my #ttrpg Lehn features Character Actions. These Actions are meant as RP goals. Performing an Action allows the Players to Push a die from their shared dice pool. This ultimately makes success easier at the risk of a smaller Income. Which 3 would you choose?

Good night folks

I am not the most experienced TTRPG professional here but I do have a variety of pro experience: design, writing, editing, layout, social media, and publicity. I’m now the line lead for Cyberpunk RED. With that in mind, if you have a question about the hobby, please ask. I’ll do my best to answer.

If you'll indulge me I'd like to prompt some creative writing using Lehn's scene set up. In this prompt you own and operate a Tavern. I provide a Situation and an Antagonist. You find a way to avoid or mitigate their impacts on your tavern. Later I'll introduce a complication. (1/4)

@goldenlassogames.bsky.social What is the best way to get in touch with you in regards to pitching a game? Or perhaps the better question is are you taking submissions for games, primarily tarot driven games.

I've been passively noodling on my next game, but I fear the entirety of it's audience will be me and the youtuber Paleo Analysis. That's fine. Maybe I can convince them to play with me.

@planesailinggames.com how would you like to be contacted in regards to getting a game reviewed? Or do you not accept submissions?

I don't think I can usefully write / host this, but I / we can do some of the the *legwork* here and then ask said sites if any of them will pick it up. So: The topic is sites, podcasts, newletters, other outlets that carry *significant* coverage of Indie TTRPGs. Name yours or your faves below!

Attention #ttrpgcommunity If you review indie games, interview indie creators or otherwise make content focused around indie folks please direct us to your channels, sites or wherever you'd like. I know a few folks that would like to get in touch with you, so lets make it easy for everyone.

Is there a remotely current list of "Sites and outlets that cover Indie and Small-Press TTRPGs (and also how to politely show them stuff)", and if not, how do we get one or more of those sites to make that an annual feature?

A question: what's your favourite indie TTRPG that you can only get in soft-copy? The thing you can only find on Itch or Gumroad, the thing that's still in beta, the thing that's still an ashcan, that PDF with too few pages to justify selling in print? Shout them out here! (Yes, your own too.)
