I heard that this deck of cards would make a great holiday gift! My shipping partner* has told me that any orders can be dropped in mail pretty quickly! *me

It's already been a week since CRITcon, and I'm still buzzing from the experience. It was my first time tabling at an event, and I've been cherishing the feeling of being surrounded by a community that instantly felt like home. What a badass group of warm & welcoming people. 💖

Sick haul from CritCon this morning! Dope stuff for Mothership and Liminal Horror and Cairn!!! Got to meet @gomezwrites.bsky.social and @gravy.press, super cool folks! Also ran into @bradkerr.net Overall, good weekend!

#critcon day 2! Free entry and lots of fun TTRPGs, miniature wargames, painting classes, and more!

Down at #CRITcon all weekend at the DoubleTree Hotel in Portland! Come check it out if you’re in the area! Free to get in, and lots of rad vendors & games happening 🎲

Test print of Escape the Iron Dungeon came out great! Print shop should have 50 of them ready to go tomorrow! 🏋️‍♂️🗝️💀

Getting ready to table my first convention at CRITcon in Portland, OR, 10/24 - 10/26! While gathering my wares, I realized I'd never gotten copies of Escape the Iron Dungeon made. This was the first game I made, so I gave the design a glow-up. If you're in the PNW, come say hi at CRITcon!

I just backed Into the Dark on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/all...

I haven't played Cairn yet, but I'm going to pick it up so I can run this bad boy

www.kickstarter.com/projects/wat... It's the last 8 hours to back out our high-level 5e heist adventure. We still have some unclaimed sharp-edged dice for physical backers. Come and get them! #dnd5e #tier4 #heistadventure #crowdfunding #indiedev

zo51m05.bsky.social and I collaborated on a risograph-printed edition of Unworthy! Grab a tri-fold of the core rules and The Djinni's Lair for just $5 plus shipping. If you live outside the US, feel free to DM for shipping options! gomezwrites.com/product/unwo... #ttrpg #1pRPGjam

I just added copies of my Liminal Horror adventure, These Waters Run Black, to my website! The zine includes the full eight-page adventure and adds two dotted-grid pages for facilitator notes. Really happy with how these came out! gomezwrites.com/product/thes... #ttrpg #liminalhorror

Oof, this is so tough. I'm torn between Portishead's "Dummy," My Bloody Valentine's "Loveless," Air's "Moon Safari," and NIN's "The Fragile." All of these were so important to shaping my musical taste!

I just wrapped up a brand-new introductory adventure for Unworthy! Kick-start your first session with The Djinni's Lair​ -- a detailed adventure full of mysterious creatures, duplicitous NPCs, and a rich, desert-themed setting. gomezwritesgames.itch.io/unworthy #ttrpg #ruleslite #OSR #noAI

Look what just arrived! Can’t wait to dig into this. Congrats on the book release, @thomasha.bsky.social !

You are a Living Weapon. Your goal: find someone worthy of wielding you--someone that's strong, agile, intelligent. The challenge: you'll need to suffer at the hands of innumerable dipshits along the way. Available now! Link in bio! #ttrpg #ruleslite #onepagerpgjam25 #humanmade

Just finished my play through of Thousand Empty Light by @alfredvalley.bsky.social -- what an awesome experience. The module had a tight gameplay loop that was easy to break into smaller play sessions, and the Combined Systems Semiotic Standard oracle was pure genius.

Thomas consistently produces some of the best SFF/Horror stories I've had the pleasure of reading (and narrating!). His writing always seems to blend the weird and horrifying with heartfelt themes that linger in the best ways.

Seeing Detritus among so many awesome games absolutely made my WEEK. The best part is that at least nine of the other games in this photo were made by some of my extremely talented friends: @exeunt.press @mallenhall.com @adambell.games @ethanyen.com @junkfoodgames.bsky.social ❤️

I'm super late to the @obsidian.md party, but boy is it making solo RPGs a real joy to play. The organization is pure brain candy for me 🧠🍭 Here's a snippet from last night's awesome session of "Troves" by @sasquatchgames.bsky.social

I can tell you right now I'd be absolutely THRILLED to see any of these gifts, and they cost you nothing more than a few minutes of your time. Go make a game designer's day ❤️

Woohoo! We just hit our stretch goal, which means all Print & Print+ backers get die-cut stickers! 🎉 There are still four days left to back Detritus! 🔗 in bio! #sologaming #zine #journalinggame #detritusgame

We have just over a week left, and the crowdfunding for Detritus is going great! To show my appreciation for the funds we've raised so far, I designed a die-cut vinyl sticker that will go out to all Print and Print+ backers if we hit $750. Back here: kck.st/3UtTqDm

"They made it so we couldn’t survive up there. It’s not our fault." This is a terrific story that hits hard. The fact that the only characters showing empathy are the ones forced to do the actual, hard work felt especially topical.

Detritus is live on Kickstarter! Detritus is a solo journaling game of hope, survival, and desperation that only YOU can write. Learn more and back the game: www.kickstarter.com/projects/352... #detritusgame #sologames #journalinggame #tabletopgames #adventuregame #zine #kickstarter #humanmade

I've been working on memorizing "Time's Shadow" by Mathilde Blind, and I wanted to try illustrating it. I'm torn on my interpretation of the last stanza -- it sounds cynical, but maybe it's suggesting the list of things we allow ourselves to be lost in rather than appreciating the present.

An illustration for one of my favorite poems, "Two-Headed Calf" by Laura Gilpin. Read it here: rolfpotts.com/two-headed-c... #inkdrawing #inkdrawings #penandink #inkandwash #poetry #poem #illustration #drawing #art
