this podcast could have been a groupchat

> Welcome to the first of our monthly post-campaign updates. Please for the love of God, don't. There are 3 updates anyone wants to see: * the book is done * the books are printed * the books are shipping

Okay, time to be serious: How does one add alt text to images in Affinity v3 for PDF output?

About to start writing a dungeon that'll REALLY upset @hodagrpg.bsky.social!

Itch sale. Do the thing. itch.io/s/195331/sum...

“If you are inhabiting a character bodily with other people also embodying characters you are larping. If you are playing a character with people who are not you’re probably doing theatre. If you’re not playing a character and someone else is you are probably being accosted by a vlogger.”

I always receive pushback from industry professionals when I tell them I set honest funding goals for my projects. I am spending $15k to make this, this includes buffer funds in case of emergencies. So I'm not telling you the goal is $5k so we fund in 24 hours.

We just finished up session 2/2 for our #Mothership oneshot-turned-twoshot of The Haunting of Ypsilon 14, and I've learned a few things: - MoSh is AWESOME - Players will do anything to "win" - I'm a big ol' softie - I'm REALLY bad at initial pacing, just the slowest of slow burns

Recently I've taken part in a bunch of discord live text games and each has reminded me in in some way of my larp experiences. This blog post is an attempt to explore those similarities, and see what lessons the LTRP scene can learn from its in person cousins. thegardenbelow.blot.im/setting/expe...

Hmmm

We should outlaw fireworks. All of em.

You also have to not have any professional relationship with any RPG publisher for 6 months prior to judging and 1 year after. So basically you need to be unemployed to be a judge???

Looking for a cover image for a digital-only stretch goal element for our upcoming Brindleverse Triptych w/ @gauntletrpg.bsky.social. A successful creator would be able to combine - The spirit and composition style of Pepe Silvia Meme - The style and desperation of the cover of Xmen issue 141 1/2

Please go hit the Notify button for my comic Kickstarter! 🙇 We're gonna print chapter one of my cool webcomic, Kattabolt. You will get an email when it launches on July 24th, no need to remember dates yourself! www.kickstarter.com/projects/353... New to the comic? Read it for free at kattabolt.com

That Barrows & Borderlands freak must have a humiliation kink, huh?

A dilemma fit for a queen!!!

They couldn't ride the Eagles up to Mount Doom because they were trapped in the Hotel California

Only 23 days until the Kickstarter launches!

need some good news? here it is: not only is there a Ghost Dog tabletop roleplaying game based on the film by Jim Jarmusch starring Forest Whitaker, it's fully compatible with the Sailor Moon tabletop roleplaying game 1900hotdog.com/2026/07/nerd...

Outstanding work. The only good review of Marathon.

It looks like I'm not gonna be able to go to a specific convention I was planning to table at this fall. Where should I go instead? US East Coast only.

Got LOTS of copies available. Come get it! You want to be enchanted by the hot dust Sorceress, right? (Art by @chaoclypse.bsky.social!)

🚨AFTER 33 MONTHS, I BRING YOU THE SINGLE LARGEST CREATIVE PROJECT OF MY LIFE 🚨: THE NAMCO MUSEUM MUSEUM: EVERY GAME, EVERY COLLECTION, EVERY PORT! EVERY RELEASE, EVERY REGION, NO EXCEPTIONS! I've meticulously studied & presented EVERY single instance of Namco's historic game collections, for you!

So...if you went to Otakon in the early 2010s you probably remember the Iced Cold Water guy who would sing his banger of a song while selling Ice Cold Waters for Only 1 Dollar. I just learned he passed away earlier this year.....shit www.charleslstevensfuneralhome.com/obituaries/j...

Dude, let's fucking go. Liminal Horror module when?

Temp map for a new project. Crowdfunding in early Fall. (Some changes still need to be made, but I needed this for internal use.)

I know lots of folks who think marketing is inherently bad or have no interest in it. That's never been me: I was obsessed with the packaging art that my toys came in and how that affected me as a buyer. Commercials and product labels. You made something people want; now you gotta tell them about it

I think the way I'll approach this is just to share on what's working and what's not working. The number one tip I have is to learn how to present your games to different audiences, especially people who have never heard of a "TTRPG" or even a "roleplaying game." There's lots of them.

Oh hell yeah, new fanzine. I'm really excited to see what happens when the LH Deluxe Edition drops, because I think a lot of people are going to want to contribute to something like this. In the meantime though, I know there's a bunch of you sickos out there who will enjoy this.

methodsetmadness.blogspot.com/2026/06/mini... Eric is actually one of my favourite creators in the space. This is the good shit.

So, there is no "master shot" of the MMPR S1 Zord summon and Megazord sequence. EVERY (US) episode cuts SOMETHING, even if it's a single shot. I've always wanted a 100% full Zord sequence, with no dialogue or sound effects over Ron Wasserman's badass instrumental. So, I spent my morning doing it.

I redrew the GAME FREAK magazine girl

Experimenting. #DrawSteel

I've written about my inspirations for my 100+ room, Metroidvania dungeon, The Castle Automatic

I just hope that one day we get to live in a world where Robots don't have to be In Disguise

If I ever hear "why would the players even go here" again it will be too soon.

Version 0.3 of Dredge Quick and Drown is tentatively formatted and pretty and ready for release. A quick last minute grammar pass and a devlog write up tomorrow should have it good to go!

they told me to read the poems, so i read them some poems (epic poems) to outline a few of the ways I see Tolkien engaging in that tradition while angling toward an English "national mythology." but what does that entail! Hmmmm

I'm starting a week long pet sit in five hours, I think it would be cool to reach 35 followers for the Kickstarter before I'm home again next week!!

It's the last few hours for our roguelite soulslike procedurally generated Metroidvania with legacy elements (Can't hurt, right?) www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

Reminder from Shigesato Itoi: Touch grass.

Go now!!!

It's the last couple days to get in on RATCATCHER 03: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

fuck it itch.io/jam/violence...
