New version of my David Lynch tribute game just dropped! I think it does a damn fine job of simulating a Lynch movie. I printed some nice little zines of it (see my last post) so DM me if you want a copy!

At Dagstuhl this summer @pyrofoux.bsky.social led a crew of us in a session called "Handmade Blaseball". For various reasons (we're all trying to find the guy who did this) we all ended up designing various physical game generators. For the curious, here's mine: mguzdial.itch.io/game-generat...

Tabling my games for the first time!!! Come through the Guildhouse if you’re in/near San Jose!

Things were better when computer was in room. Now everywhere is computer. This is bad. Computer should never have escaped room.

Hello traveler! My greatest (?), dumbest, and free-est game now has a new version!!! Play as edgelord adventurers and overcome challenges by revealing your dark tragic past. Be sick as hell, outdo your comrades, or go rogue trying. I've never run EWA10PBS without crying laughing at the table.

Hell yeah, get Pale Dotted! Thanks @devindecibel.bsky.social!

I just saw a person with a Labubu encased in a plastic mold like it was imprisoned in carbonite to be delivered to Jabba the Hut.

NEW ARRIVAL: Pale Dot by @devindecibel.bsky.social is a collaborative storytelling game (GM-less/GM-full) for 2-5 players about a crew of dustlings, non- human cosmonauts journeying beyond their world in search of answers. Physical copies, ready to ship 👇 tabletopbookshelf.com/products/pal...

ATTN COSMONAUTS, PALE DOT 2E HAS LAUNCHED! It's got new cosmic locations to explore, wondrous new art pieces, and updated play procedures. I'm so proud of it! Physical book by @plusoneexp.bsky.social: ttrpg.link/paledot Digital: devindecibel.itch.io/pale-dot Art: @sifsweetman.bsky.social 🧵⬇️

I've been learning a bunch of My Chemical Romance songs for a cover set with my band and god damn these guys are good. Ray Toro is making me get better at guitar.

I would love if my life was less kafkaesque.. I was at a job site with no parking and just got a completely unfair ticket and was told it’s my fault and nobody can help me. It’s feel like I’m two government officials away from being dragged into a quarry and stabbed by thugs with knives.

Have you checked out the new edition of Pale Dot? If so, I'd hella appreciate more ratings! Also if you want to say something nice about it, leave it in the comments since ratings can only be see by the creator :) (Also rate some other cool games in your library while you're at it!)

After many years of testing, edits, art, and layout, FATHOM - the surreal TTRPG of drifters exploring the depths of the urban UnReal by @matthewguz.bsky.social and me - is finally finished. v1.0 release is out now - for free - on itch.io sulcata.itch.io/fathom

I've been doing TTRPG layout commissions! Hit me up if you need some design work :)

Had so much fun making art for this! And designing some little frog-type space explorers 🐸

goodest goodies from @plusoneexp.bsky.social ! soooo happy to finally have pale dot v2 in my grubby paws, GOAT @devindecibel.bsky.social

@lurnoise.bsky.social did such an amazing job on this piece! Check out the book: ttrpg.link/paledot

I drew some cool art for this cool game ~*

Two people should buy/download Pale Dot real quick so I can say I had 100 downloads today! (You might already own it from a bundle!) devindecibel.itch.io/pale-dot

Game Market West Fall 2025 Countdown: Pale Dot by Devin Nelson A collaborative improvisational story game about non-human cosmonauts embarking on a whimsical, surreal, and existential journey through their solar system to unravel a cosmic mystery. #boardgames @devindecibel.bsky.social

Who are cool people I should be reaching out to about my new game book? I'm looking for folks who do any sort of indie ttrpg content.

Devin makes cool games! Def go check this one out!

Friend of the show @devindecibel.bsky.social is launching the second version of their incredible Outer Wilds-inspired space explorer TTRPG! Go check it out, and pick up a physical(!) copy of the book now!

I had the pleasure of doing some late-stage playtesting for Pale Dot. Not only was it great fun to play, but Devin really put a lot of thought into tying it all off into something slick, approachable, and evocative. Don't sleep on it!

Huge news for gay people everywhere

WAAAAA!!! I backed this and I can’t wait to have it in my grubby little hands.

Friends and potential friends reading this: I'd hella hella hella appreciate likes/reposts to the original post. I just released a new TTRPG book and I wanna make sure it doesn't get lost in the cyber ocean. Myself and a small team of cool talented people worked really hard to get this out! #ttrpg

HELL YEAH! Devin fucking killed it on this and we were excited to be their magic feather! Pick it and The Conservatory up at Plus One Exp! Also, I am pretty sure the BIGGAYLORD discount that @rrookstudio.bsky.social & @keganexe.com demanded I put in place is still active. Or just give them $$

Yo internet! I’m a composer and my finances are a little shaky at the moment and I need some work to get me through the summer till my other job as a teacher resumes. I can make you a groovy, catchy, vibey, or spooky song like the one below for between $350-$500. (Reposts appreciated!)

Virtue's Heaven is 10% off on Steam! Being an expert in the game (I made it), I'd say that it's well worthy of your time and a positive review on Steam. For more information regarding the game's subject, please look at the attached .gif file. store.steampowered.com/app/1929860/...

Ahh, thanks dictionary dot com, good to know! 🍩🍩🍩

A lot of queer/trans bundles that were supposed to happen have been put on hold or cancelled because of the payment processor stuff happening. The Queer Games Bundle currently happening will probably be the last big one for a while; 614 items for $10. itch.io/b/3063/queer...

We (gloomy june) are playing a big boy stage today!!!

You can trust I’ll bring quality to your project because my band is opening for Sugar Ray this weekend!

I took a nice selfie yesterday but also succeeded at capturing the most “in memory of Devin” energy that currently exists in a photo of me. Feel free to use this at my memorial if I ever kick buckets.

We're back! Purchasing the Queer Games Bundle for $60 (or $10+) is a direct action that you can take right now to support queer people in a life-changing way, and in exchange, you get over 600 amazing, heartfelt, fun, and radical games and artworks. itch.io/b/3062/

The Conservatory, my dark academia/occult institution game is in here!

The Grateful Dead has been playing outside my house for two nights and it sucks so bad and I want it to end.
