NEW EPISODE! Three survivors traverse the dangerous wasteland of New York City in search of the Tree of Life. ft. @superdillin.bsky.social @edwardspence.bsky.social @thecandacemarie.bsky.social @drakoniques.itch.io Links below 🔗⬇️

I have something booked every night this week except Thursday and you should invite me to record something on Thursday and we can pitch a no-hitter TOGETHER

Oh no

Riverside has become unusable. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'd love to be able to make video clips out of the recordings inside the app. AI being *present* isn't a dealbreaker because it's gonna be everywhere, but the less intrusive the better. Is Zencastr any good or is it also unusable?

Happy pride 😘

Yaaasss Queen Did you catch the last episode of our remake of The Snowman (2017), starring @queenjulia11.bsky.social and @thedaddygamer.bsky.social, with a soundtrack featuring @sungoose.bsky.social??? #ttrpg #dnd #improv #mystery #comedy #noir

Want to play in a gritty, street-level game of Masks? You should check out my Masks listing on StartPlaying: 🕸In The Spider's Web🕸 Halcyon city may be a cesspool of crime under the Spider's control, but this is your neighborhood. Are you going to fight for it? startplaying.games/adventure/cm...

On behalf of us and the One Shot Network, I must respectfully* argue that a one shot can be 2-4 episodes *Punch you

The Anyone Can Wear the Mask episode(s?) of One Shot, with the time loop superhero, should legit be adapted into a Hollywood movie. It would CURE superhero fatigue.

Dreaming of a The Heart is a Dungeon style AP mini-series about exploring the relationships of childhood friends, now grown up, re-connecting over the video games of their youth by playing Memory Core

Episode 1 is out now!! pod.link/1894927632/e... oneshotpodcast.com/actual-play/...

JJ Abram’s writes mystery boxes and can’t end a story? He’s not a screen writer, he’s a forever DM

I gave you all the clues, Mr. Podcastman The first episode of our remake of inscrutable murder thriller The Snowman (2017) is live! Guest starring @queenjulia11.bsky.social and @thedaddygamer.bsky.social! And featuring a gorgeous prog metal soundtrack by @sungoose.bsky.social!

Indiana Jones named himself after his dog

I had the delight of talking to @samsorensen.bsky.social who has very different tastes in games than I do. I loved hearing about his play-by-post OSR Mega games and the way they creat emergent narritve.

NEW EPISODE! Dillin plays Anamnesis, a game about recovering lost memories, to explore the past of... someone familiar. ft. @superdillin.bsky.social Links Below 🔗⬇️

I'm cookin'

I did the mid-roll on @avoidpod.bsky.social because they're playing my game, Galleons of the Thunderosa, and they MADE ME A LITTLE HEAD!!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ2u...

I love putting my favorite quote from the @roleplayretcon.bsky.social Pacific Rim: Uprising series into different text/logo generators and then dropping them into our old show organization chat for that series

wow I can't believe kickstarter reversed their decision and now you HAVE to at least show bush to get your payout.

holy shit

Six bright Astronaut wives A dozen softly-focused, stellar-focused eyes Staring at the hungering span Of space beckoning to be touched by mortal hands Seventeen missions to space Out of which only twelve result in sucking face All these bright-shining brides Marrying the stars within their eyes

Doing some graphic design on spec for the game @superdillin.bsky.social is pitching on @thisshouldbeaga.me

Me listening to @avoidpod.bsky.social add a "'pooning" homebrew mechanic into Galleons of the Thunderosa

This game’s been so much fun so far, can’t wait for y’all to see the shenanigans we got up to!

We've discovered soundboards. And, we're remaking Norweigan crime thriller The Snowman (2017) with "Gunpointing" an original TTRPG we made that's all about dramatic neo-noir gunplay! Starring @queenjulia11.bsky.social and @thedaddygamer.bsky.social, with a soundtrack by @sungoose.bsky.social!

Coming SOON to the One Shot Network: Roll for Recall! An actual play podcast where the main character is amnesia. Join the Roll for Recall Discord and watch the prerelease for episode 1 tomorrow! May 11th 6pm PT Oneshotpodcast.com/actual-play/roll-for-recall (links inside)

You know what would be fun? Trying Gunpointing's simple class-less character creation that uses Feats and its level-up system modeled after video game achievements! It's free! benjamingray.itch.io/gunpointing

You know what you should do? Try Gunpointing's hand-of-playing-cards-instead-of-dice resolution system for yourself. You should play Gunpointing with your friends or for your Actual Play show! It's free! benjamingray.itch.io/gunpointing

Bonus episode! We play the duel-before-the-duel TTRPG "I Have the High Ground" by @jessfrom.online as The Beefy Dudes from the Sega arcade game Altered Beast! We beat the bad guy and now God Dad says one of us gets to be King and leaves it up to us to decide who. oneshotpodcast.com/actual-play/...

Caught some of the @rpgeeksdnd.bsky.social Blade Runner stream and it reaffirmed my belief that @fkth.bsky.social can do it all. It also steeled my resolve to run a good detective story for an upcoming @roleplayretcon.bsky.social series remaking The Snowman

Saw the universe click into place when @thisshouldbeaga.me pointed out this "1 in 20" line in The Martian and how the TTRPG experience makes you realize that's a real risk lol. Everything should be a game. youtu.be/ytHPojMiMpU?...

A dumbed-down Animal Farm adaptation is, to be fair, very Orwellian

I made enough money off of it, so my first and favorite game I made is now totally free. It Takes This Long is a two-player game about estranged people stranded on a desert island together with crazy stuff like dinosaurs and unexploded nukes. benjamingray.itch.io/it-takes-thi...

It doesn't have the extra bells and whistles I had planned, but Galleons of the Thunderosa is a good little 99-percent standalone TTRPG that can be plugged into your favorite game. Live your Wacky Races dreams with your friends for just $2! benjamingray.itch.io/galleons-of-...

Failing to fund Galleons of the Thunderosa was... tough. My first failed crowdfunder. So I decided to do three pretty cool things: 1. Released Galleons of the Thunderosa anyway 2. Made my first game, It Takes This Long, free 3. Released the ashcan version of a new game, Gunpointing

NEW EPISODE! We build some perfect little freaks for a game of Realis and learn how this system works before we jump into adventure. ft @superdillin.bsky.social @austinwalker.bsky.social @possibleworlds.bsky.social @vidityavoleti.bsky.social @moreblueberries.bsky.social

Cards Against Humanity is a roleplaying game for unfunny people to pretend to be funny

TTRPG designers will be like, what if a resolution mechanic is eating soup? And not realize they're just hungry

We came to this conclusion, btw

Not your toothbrush.

Hey, I've only got a couple of days left on the Galleons of the Thunderosa campaign, and it looks like it's not going to fund. I've mostly accepted this, but if it miraculously got funded, it would make my YEAR. I'm pretty proud of my Wacky Racing TTRPG! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/b...

We did a big heist with @roleplayretcon.bsky.social ! Come and take a listen right here!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmCA...

Oh shit! I wrote that! (In theory, I am finishing writing that. I swear I'm gonna get there, finishing things is scary. Kickstarters are even scarier.) Gonna listen to this throughout my day, you should too.

Jensie and Ben are on a special standalone one-shot of @avoidpod.bsky.social playing Janet Doe and Canter "Can't" Hitchcock as they execute a heist of famous child actor Calvin McCathy's fast-food themed birthday party! We're playing HEIST by @madpierrot.design! youtu.be/EmCAhpWw9Ps?...
