Blood on the Clocktower has so much support for play! Super cool to see for someone new to the game (is me, I am new)

i am once again demanding that y'all join me on Paper Cult Club, an exceptional little slow forum about indie TTRPGs (and other typical message board nonsense) papercult.club

Man, NPR had me crying in my car over hot dogs wtf

I'm in the process of writing my love letter to fighting games, so I booted up Ultra Street Fighter IV for the first time in 10 years. Training mode. El Fuerte. I tried an old combo I hadn't been able to hit all those years ago: run stop fierce. Today, I could finally see the path to the summit.

To clear up some misinformation, Games on Demand at PAX East and PAX Unplugged requires every GM to use safety tools. We've been doing so for years and we are not the only group to do so. We take GM volunteers regardless of background. We ran 230 game sessions last Unplugged, and 82 last East.

Reposting because of the sony news

As someone who does the vast majority of her roleplaying by PBP these days, this blog post really hit for me. raines.bearblog.dev/discord-tool... Discord is *so good* for RPGs, especially once the RPG is flexed a little to account for the restrictions of the format.

itch summer sale! get all my paid games for $45! That includes all 5 brand new releases from 2026 itch.io/s/193202/sum...

Your friends think fondly of you when you aren't around. You can't stop it.

Next week, @unwinnable.com's 200th issue comes out, so I put together a gallery of all 202 covers of Unwinnable, dating all they way back to 1872. Er, I mean 2014. unwinnable.com/2026/06/19/2...

A little over two weeks ago I released a jokey blog post about what to expect going into an o/u-like LTRP. Now its time to give Baseline Drift the chunky post-mortem blog treatment as its predecessor with a reprise of my first ever blog post. thegardenbelow.blot.im/voice/expres...

Its time for my annual #AAPI Month OC thread where I get to yap about the symbolism/history behind my OCs! If u don’t know, I'm a mixed Asian #TTRPG Creator and my OCs are/were in active APs. My background inspires a lot of how I rp/design and what stories I want to tell. 🧵 #aanhpi #ocsky #oc

Does "skill expression" mean something to RPG folks? Or is this mostly a video game idea?

The Edition Wars Tornament in now live at Gencon! This is your chance to finally prove your favoirite RPG is the best game in the world objectively: By building a Bracket 2 Commander deck based on it, and winning a tournament.

#OVER/UNDER obsession got so far, I'm doing a university project about it. If everyone who participated could fill out this really cool questionnaire, it'd be so amazing :)) forms.gle/h5D2motTcDcD...

Hmmm, I feel like if text chatting in 2XKO lobbies had chat bubbles people would be more responsive, but idk

Just finished playing #Unbeatable! Lots of great moments, and the game has its flaws, but maybe it's better for that? It also has a very endearing and cute end credits, so that's nice :)

The dumbest, worst, most annoying person has already done the thing you want to do and someone probably loved it. So you might as well just make the thing

Man, I hope the Daigo vs MenaRD set will be good...!

My friend and I talked very seriously about horny games, and I think he's now out to write it! Will share when it's complete and if he's open to it, then :)

Can confirm witch hat good

I don’t “network,” I make friends. Other artists are not my competition, they’re my beloved peers and sources of inspiration. We all have the same goal; to share our art. I’m not gonna corporatize my human relationships with them. I am in my sandbox playing and I hope they join me.

You can leave a comment for the FCC's proposed change to make transgender people of any kind inappropriate for children's media. Go to this link and let them know you are commenting in regards to MB Docket No. 19-41 A massive public outcry is needed on this.

Whew, Fabula Ultima does not feel great with a 3-phase boss battle. Maybe there's better ways to go about it, but I don't think I can pull it off! The book does say to be prepared for a 3-phase boss fight to go long, but yeahhhh, it is wayyy too long (3+ hours for us)

I found some of the larp authors in the Intercon Discord! Granted, the discussions have died down since Intercon happened (back to the covens, I believe)

it do be like this sometimes

Digimon Beatbreak is so good omg

Your periodic reminder that there is a website that lets you listen to local radio stations anywhere in the world This is honestly one of the coolest inventions ever, imo. Global access to hyper-local imagined communities

if you aren't paying attention to party of one, you really ought to be — jeff has been setting up an absolutely stacked lineup of guests this season and this announcement is only scratching the surface

I couldn't be more excited to announce something I've been working on for a long time - Please welcome Belltower House Artist Residency, a multidisciplinary gift of time in my erstwhile home in southern New Mexico, now accepting applications for 2026. belltowerhouse.org

Real talk: there is a very real likelihood that Go Play NW can't happen this year Less than a week left in our Membership Drive, aka early ticket sales and raising money to hold the event, and we're just over halfway to making our *base* goal. If we can't hit that goal, we can't pay for the venue

They are at $480,000/500,000 goal Just donated $25 can anyone match me

They're having so much fun and the vibes are great! Stop by for a scene, or a tip :D

These games were either formative for me, or left a very strong impression :)

Some culture shock that I experienced while in the NE US during winter--handkerchiefs are still a thing!

LARP design reminds me so much of the text RP games I played in as a kid, that I can't help but be endeared by it!

I couldn't hate doing this more, but I've been avoiding it for quite too long. @ladyazulina.bsky.social and I are offering our services for any kind of project from the ones below. If you have something else in mind, feel free to DM me, and I could accept it as well. 👇 LINKS ON HOW TO HELP BELOW 👇

Don't wanna pester folks too much, but I've been homeless for the last year and we're currently fundraising to get me over to somewhere I'll have safe housing and can finally start living a better life. Gofundme: gofund.me/75d904432 @lukegearing.bsky.socials adventure: itch.io/b/3536/mayas...
