Hey! Peter, who made San Sibilia (an excellent game about a dreamlike city that we played during our Sangfielle season), has a new game on Kickstarter that looks extremely good. All of Peter's games are definitely worth your attention, but would love to get the eyes of more folks on this one!

This is suuuuuch a good example of how Realis works. Both the way that it allows for a sort of narrative maneuvering /and/ the way it pushes everyone to really get creative with what they have on their sheets. www.reddit.com/r/rpg/commen...

You have no idea how excited I am for folks to see how many talented people have working on Realis behind the scenes for months (& years) now. From industry pros like @willjobst.bsky.social to incredible artists lending their talents to a TTRPG for the first time, it's a book you won't want to miss.

If you need excellent 3D/2D artists, designers, animators, QA, programmers, please look at this thread! I'm still looking for work, as is the rest of the team now 😢 ENGINE ANGEL wouldn't have gotten as far as it did without them, and their skills are immediately apparent in Wanderstop.
