Oh no, I'm redesigning Fight Card's combat again help

Lawrence/Lake Street Dive Lizzy McAlpine/Dodie Jacob Collier Streetlight Cadence/Echosmith Theo Katzman

I feel like Dave the Diver has toooo much going on. Like, I just want one day where I can just chill and focus on diving, not another quest another quest another quest 😅

Playing Gibberers and thinking about its relationship to Dialect REALLY has me thinking about what sort of game Fight Card wants to be. Man, do I really enjoy both Dialect and Gibberers, which both approach language creation in different ways. And unfortunately, I'm looking at them with GNS in mind

Hearing that @noroadhome.itch.io 's Stewpot sold out at IPR this weekend at PAX U feels great as one of the many GMs who ran it at GoD this weekend :) Love it when people love the games that you love!

Man, do I want to come back to iO to steal their magical secrets

Chicago deep dish? More like pizza pot pie

Oh no, you have to WRITE the games?

I am unfortunately going to be talking about this game for a long time (and I'm not sorry)

One of the first things I did when #OVER/UNDER ended was change my Discord name from: "Thoss (they/them) [🚨 EDC]" to "DB as Thoss". When everyone was talking OOC, I didn't want folks to call me by my character's name! The movie/actor wording felt right for O/U. It was just as grand as a production!

I love a quote from Johana Koljonen's "An Introduction to Bespoke Larp Design": "The power of embodied role-playing is so strong, and the ability of players to fix design problems on the fly so enormous, that even those early larpers could glimpse what was possible, and kept at it."

I am both thanking and cursing @ehronlime.bsky.social for mentioning #OVER/UNDER in the Playtest Zero Discord An equally as potent curse and gratitude to @cherrydrop.bsky.social for tempting me with the thought that I can just lurk They're the whole reason I dipped my toe in--

#OVER/UNDER I only realized my character was part of an android diaspora near the end of the game oh well, goodbye Thoss

Omg Monsterhearts is so fun

#OVER/UNDER has been a lot of fun! My character just got started and I'm excited to get into more slice of life-esque RP with their fellow Teamsters and residents :)

I'm trying to recover my deleted files, pray to the dice gods for me

I don't enjoy execs using video game terms. I hear about "leveling up" and "next level"...it makes me think they're plotting out game routes, but no they're just monetizing breathing

1. First #TTRPG you ever played: D&D 5e 2. First you ever ran: D&D 5e 3. Played the Most: D&D 5e 4. Run the Most: Cypher System? Or D&D 5e 5. Favourite: Ten Candles and Fight Card 6. Most recently played: LESBIANS BUILT THIS FARM 7. Most recently run: Brindlewood Bay

One of my prouder GM moments was a game of Kosmosaurs for a young family, parents and kids, and stone faced revealing that the recovered chrome artifact of the Saucerites was a dishwasher. I love me a bit

Wait, is flirting a push your luck game?

Using a deck builder to make a deck in a game I don't know is such a frustrating exercise (and book club alternative)

The Sajam Slam is my favorite fighting game event to watch by far. It's so joyous to see people enjoying fighting games :)

Holy crap Slayers is free today for Free RPG Day! Pick it up; it is one of my golden stars towards designing for strong character fantasy between classes in games

Playtest Zero is cool ok

Man, the one month that I would be free to check out local slam poetry is the month they don't have any 😔

Oh no, I have a social deduction game based on social engineering in my head

Bruh, how do I edit 4 pages out of my report? All the things I wrote are sick and cool; I don't care about executives :/

once uneasy's done i'm gonna be available for hire on freelance projects. if you need someone to do writing, layout, 3d mockups, video editing, video creation, product photos, design consultation, technical editing, website stuff, or anything else you should come find me

Thanks for having me Alex! This was a great talk that kind of crystalized where I see myself in the hobby right now, which is to say, just trying to showcase games in a weird, unique way

Yayyy character sheet building in Foundry for my upcoming Gubat Banwa home game, ty Custom System Builder :D

Me playing modern Zangief is NOT a crime, as I cannot react to drive impact

O no my ass kicker

3 days until I can obligatorily kick @ehronlime.bsky.social's ass

For TTRPG designers: how do you estimate the run time of your games? Do you also factor in debriefing as a part of that play time? Set up?

Battleship but TTRPG

I'm obsessed with Maybe Happy Ending, help

Fight Card updates soon™️, once I get home and rest!

Woah, trains are like an iron wind

The panic of immediately reverting a change because your game would break

Monster Prom 3 is amazing, and oh no I need to play 1 and 2 first oh nooooo

Thank you to my power gaming, min-maxing, strategic minded board gaming crew for finding some of the abusable things in Fight Card. Patching out single card, loop-able combos...

THE FINAL 48 HOURS HAS BEGUN! Uneasy Lies the Head is 80% funded and has 2 days left to meet its goal! Back now so I can bring the plots and schemes of royal advisors to your table. Check it out: www.kickstarter.com/projects/ada...

One of my gaming friends is new-ish to TTRPGs (about a year in), very invested, and she brought up some things she appreciated about our online, 6-episode game that finished last night First, is having a "quotes" text channel in our Discord! And the second, using digital dice

Seeking AAPI creators in the TTRPG space: posting this a bit early so we can start to get some meetings on the books, but the TLDR is I want to get to know you & help you in your TTRPG creation journey! Let's have a little coffee meeting ☕ forms.gle/5UyPtUSc1q9y...

As a challenged gamer, I get the choice of game, yes? How about a match of rock paper scissors?

I keep confusing Beetlejuice with Beelzebub, woops

Hello, my name is Mint, and I've been called the TTRPG Librarian! I post TTRPG recommendations on Tumblr around various themes. I also make character sheets on Google Spreadsheets, and I'm designing a Forged-in-the-Dark game about monster babysitters: Protect the Child!

Can someone tell @worldanvil.com that their re-verification thing on their Discord looks a LOT like a run dialogue phishing method? (And in fact I'm pretty sure it is, I will post after my game, sorry but please be CAREFUL World Anvil Discord people)

SNK lol

I willll get more people LARPing, I will I will
