Dear fellow TTRPG nerds/adjacent journos and academics: you may want to go ahead and follow @playtestmaterial.bsky.social This is the account of a new critical journal of TTRPG studies, *Playtest Material*. Read about it here (more information to come soon): playtestmaterial.org

Nostos has officially funded!! I've been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support this campaign has received in the past 24 hours — it has been truly wonderful to see so many people believe in this game and want to see it come to life. Thank you all so much. It means the world!

Erica is cooking something really special, and they're so close to funding! Please go give Nostos a look if you haven't ❤️

please back this game! i think erica is working on a fascinating and beautiful project and i'd love to see it cross the finish line.

Update #4 for Nostos is up as we enter the final 24 hours of the campaign! We are SO close to reaching our goal, so if you're on the fence about backing, please consider helping us make this game a reality!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon...

Just over 36 hours left to back Nostos, and we're $2000 shy of our campaign goal! Help us get this thing to the finish line!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon...

This is so up my alley it's like a genie granted a wish I didn't know I made.

JRPG-inspired/Odyssey/post-apocalyptic/Calvino/innovative story game Nostos by @ericabridgesphd.bsky.social is in its final 48 hours! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon... We've been lucky enough to work with Erica as an editor, and she's fantastically smart and creative. Check out this game!

We're in the homestretch now! Just under 72 hours left to back Nostos -- check it out!

4 days left to back Nostos and get a copy of my game about sailing home and saying goodbye Let's get this project to the finish line y'all!!

Go back Nostos on Kickstarter!! I wanna go here and I want more art of here :)

Another art piece for this game was released. It's freaking gorgeous. I'm going to be torn between keeping the book intact and taking out pages to frame. www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon...

Latest update for Nostos! We've got one week to go until the campaign wraps up. Spread the word!!

In Nostos, you travel across the roiling Sea of Irreality, whose surface is dotted with Islands, tiny microverses with unique laws of reality. Lefka is one such Island: a metropolis torn down and rebuilt every day to match the heavens, where reality itself dictates that work stops at sunset.

Nostos is a super cool TTRPG & ought to be funded by now! If you like the weird fiction moon-hopping of Realis, Nostos is like a classical lit island-hopping cousin. Check out the blurb I wrote based on the game's ARC, and pledge the campaign while you still can! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon...

Hi you all should back this for a variety of reasons including it looks like so much fun but most importantly because I want to hold the beautiful hard copy of it in my grubby little hands one day

Nostos is almost halfway funded!! Thanks so much to all the backers who have pledged to bring this project to life, and if you haven't already, please check out the kickstarter and see if this game is for you!

Hey hey: historian/game designer/Why We Roll alum Dr. Erica Bridges has launched her very cool post-apocalypse/new world/JRPG/Roman philosophy game, Nostos! @ericabridgesphd.bsky.social Go back it, please! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon...

We’re at the end of Week 1 of the Nostos Kickstarter! Jumping off of that, I thought I’d talk about one of the game’s central mechanics: Conflicts.

gogogo! erica is a sharp and inventive voice in rpgs, ride the wave and back nostos today!

I was lucky enough to get an early read of this and it's fantastic! Definitely a campaign to check out.

Hey, so you should back this really amazing game. Get in on the ground floor - like all of us smart folks. www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon...

I’m honored to say this designer, Erica Bridges, is part of the Chicago playtest cohort I organize, and she literally can’t stop making some of the smartest games I’ve ever read and played. Don’t miss Nostos.

Just put a short & sad one-page TTRPG up on itch: Hapax, a game about lonely words on a dying world. Shout-out to the @storygameschicago.bsky.social Discord, where this week's design prompt to build a game around language inspired me to throw this together. Check it out, it's free!

Really loved stuff from @outridercreative.bsky.social, @dngnclub.itch.io, and @lumpley.bsky.social this year. Excited to see more from all of them, as well as some of the sick projects from @ericabridgesphd.bsky.social.

This episode was a blast - its one of two this season that really immediately begged for a BIG game. At least comparatively. Excited to hear what people think!

Spending time with incredible designers at a con always gets me so excited about the hobby and makes me bounce off the walls with new ideas. … I might have the beginnings of a sports anime zine??

Come find us at Gamehole Con in the Demo Row!! We’re just to the right of Will Call in the main concourse!

I consulted on the Latin and Greek for this dope medieval horror game where death is fleeting and "Came Back Wrong" is an understatement. Check it out!!
