🚨NEW WEIRD GAME KLAXXON🚨 ECO MOFOS sets sail!! Windwaker meets Waterworld in this rules light procedure-heavy TTRPG for solo and group play. Smash Corpo Schemes while discovering Monsters and Mecha lurking beneath the waves, guzzling ambergris to learn new spells. tinyurl.com/yfryeat8

500+ words added to my retro space game, Look to Starward Slowly getting towards a first draft.... Wrote a nice section about mentors/sidekicks today.

If you run a TTRPG store this is a heads up to tell you @ipr.bsky.social still has stock of A Visit to San Sibilia & Hiria: the Eternal City available.

It's a Drive Like Jehu/Hot Snakes monday morning.

Does a solo roleplaying game need an explicit game loop? I'm working on the space game, and wondering if I should put in the effort, while the shorter game loops are pretty logical: - Set the scene - Decide how your character behaves. - Determine the outcome of their actions and back to step 1.

'#1 Hit Single' by Cende keeps being one of the best albums of all time.

And now Youtube is translating Dutch titles and descriptions into English... Youtube, multilingual people exist. Even better: more than half of the world speaks more than one language. Don't translate shit until asked to do so.

Is it the time of year to post this one again? #chicktober

Also if anyone has any recommendations for this kind of writing from non-western perspectives, that's a big gap in my knowledge. I've read a lot of 'vampires = sex; zombies = fear of democracy' takes & not much on how other cultures relate to monsters domestic & imported, either now or historically

I thought the uptick in my itch sales was due to community copies running out. That did bum my out a bit, even so I readded them. Sales are still up though, so guess people just like my games… That’s quite a nice feeling actually.

Joy of the day: when Côme Martin @comemartin.bsky.social submits a game to the Build a Better World TTRPG jam comemartin.itch.io/only-mountai...

What about celebrating together something beautiful? Little free collective zine made for the Build a Better World TTRPG jam. Layout by @jimmyshelter.bsky.social editing @chrisair.itch.io the-lost-bay.itch.io/celebration

Ben ik met mijn antifa-pin op mijn spijkerjas nu ook een terrorist?

Mailing venues to get gigs is like screaming into a black hole. Although the change something escapes from a black hole is slightly bigger.

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

ok, played around & ended up here: Use this image as a template. Image size is 94x27.5mm (scale this however you want in pixels) Pink & Blue bars are cut off when bluesky crops. Desktop crop- Pink. Mobile crop -blue (pixel 7 anyways). Generally, don't put anything in the colored zones.

Time for me to unveil my newest project, Doll.Ball. The game's a sports-based wargame in the vein of bloodbowl, but in a cyberpunk setting with 'wared up dolls scrambling to toss a ball through some gnarly terrain. It's an early access ashcan for now, a lil' something to whet your appetite!

Planning to run Mausritter's the Estate for my 10 year old. Any pointers on how to get started?

I just released my first free art asset pack! Please make a game with these recently extinct animals. That would be so wonderful. Rest in peace little critters. sleepy-badger-games.itch.io/extinct-anim... #animalart #illustration #ink #watercolor #ttrpg #itch.io #artassets #animals #indiettrpg

Working on some illustrations of extinct animals for the "Build a better world" jam by @davidblandyrpgs.bsky.social & @jimmyshelter.bsky.social @thelostbaystudio.com @gatheraroundpjcts.bsky.social & @chrisair.itch.io Maybe somebody can come up with a game to use them in. #illustration #ttrpg #ink

Want to check out some Dutch garage rock this Bandcamp Friday? Presenting the Mieters: themieters.bandcamp.com

Again I plead YouTube to stop translating descriptions. Especially if they contain the lyrics of the song I'm watching I want to see the original. So annoying. At least allow me to turn it off.

For people who don't mind non-English lyrics, Aktiv Dödshjelp is a great band that scratches the itch for hardcore with that catchiness only Scandinavians seem to be able to master. For fans of The Ghost of a Thousand and Kvelertak. open.spotify.com/album/7tDvKz...

What perfect album came out when you were 16?

Is there a solo roleplaying subreddit that does not openly promote AI? /r/Solo_Roleplaying is annoyingly using peoples membership of the subreddit to promote it.

Getting spam entries for medium sized bands in my Release Radar on Spotify. Anyone else encounter this?

I wish the analytics of itch were better. I’ve had a (small) uptick in sales this month, but I have no idea how the buyers found my games. Especially for the bundles I offer I have no clue

Also back in the shop today is Gnome! A hack of Tunnel Goons. Play small folk. Loads of tables, world almanac, oracles and check out all that art I made for it 🤘 perplexingruinsshop.bigcartel.com/product/gnome

One of my favorite reads of the last year!

Lads, if you care about important questions like "Game why?" and "Game what?" and "Game really?" then you need to exchange your money for a copy of this absolute banger.

New adventure map account just dropped

All my rpg takes are very hinged, thank you very much.

I realized that combining all the blog posts I made for my upcoming retro space game is not enough to have a finished (first version) game I'll also have to complete all the random tables...

Continuing my series about my upcoming space game. Finally made it to the name & the rules. open.substack.com/pub/monsterm...

Mine is actually 227 out of 227, but that’s because I only had time to upload a cover. 😂

5. A recent acquisition, this time: @jimmyshelter.bsky.social’s A VISIT TO SAN SIBILIA, a very pretty, gently haunting solo journaling game about finding yourself in an uncanny city that only sometimes exists in our world. I can’t wait to visit San Sibilia, in fiction… or otherwise…

5b. A bookmark-sized solo journaling game, also by @jimmyshelter.bsky.social, that came with my copy of San Sibilia: IN THE MARGINS, a *really* cool meta game about reading a ttrpg journal as a new character — a critic, scholar, descendent, etc. aa and making notes in the margins as you go.

Mailday! The bundle of Kal-Arath by @castlegrief.bsky.social arrived. I just love the old school vibes of the zines. Great art, great atmosphere. Can't wait to dive in!

One like = one #TTRPG in my library that’s DEFINITELY real and not something I made up on the spot
