Two years ago (plus a little bit, I missed the anniversary) I was told that my university had booked out a local cinema for showcasing our work-in-progress projects. At that point I had a barebones homemade engine. Three days later, I had this... thing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyAb...

Not really the most urgent thing right now but it annoys me that a red heat warning is hotter than a yellow heat warning.

#PocketQuest2026 may be ending @drivethrurpg.com, but its bundles are forever - including the Solo RPGs one! You can save more than $30 and gets 18 solo/solo+ games at once (if you already bought some of them, their share is discounted as well)! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

Sample size? What's a "sample size"?

AI never has been about equalizing creative fields, allowing “unskilled” people to rise from obscurity and create great things. No, it’s about convincing people that they’re incapable of learning, growing and creating entirely on their own. It’s selling you the idea you’re too stupid to try

This is what Google's AI shat out while I was looking at the discoverability of my latest game. None of this is true. The citations link to pages that don't back up the claims. This is what Google's best minds think knowledge looks like.

In 1967 Japan Air Lines issued a set of leaflets to educate their passengers about all aspects of Japanese life. We have scanned 24 of them www.presentandcorrect.com/blogs/blog/j...

Depends if I'm cheeky (it's Sun for me) or respectful (it's Sat for most). #selfpromosaturday I'm doing a content teaser for my #indie #pocketquest 2026 #ttrpg Our Hell In Space: www.drivethrurpg.com//product/564... Someone: Pick between 1-6 for a background. Pick a name. Describe our crew member.

You need a d4 but all you have is a d20. Do you: A. Take the modulo of the roll B. Divide by 5 and round up C. Check high or low (1-10 = 1-2, 11-20 = 3-4) then check odd or even D. Re-roll 16 out of every 20 rolls E. Give up F. A mysterious sixth thing?

Last night I fell asleep watching RTGame playing Forza Horizon 6, and dreamed about this game before I knew it existed.

A couple of people have bought Better Late Than Never digitally without its counterpart, Time To Kill (or vice versa). You are allowed to do that, it's fine, I'm not stopping you. But you do know about the 2-for-1 bundle, right? www.drivethrurpg.com//product/565...

I don't want to alarm anyone, but I think I've just designed the perfect skill check mechanic.*

Experimenting with drawing on to black paper. I don't know why I've never done this before...

Giant Sand Crab might be just a little too tough for a 1st level encounter right now.

Never pass up an opportunity to tell the British government what a bunch of racist scum they are (eloquently). Many of the questions are "gotchas" designed to get a particular response. Consider not just the questions as written, but their logical opposites while answering.

What I really need is for someone to invent a book format where the cover is landscape but the interior is portrait.

I'm having far too much fun just making title page textures for this project. Title font this time is "Grapple BRK" by Brian Kent.

"Tarragon of Virtue" You can have that one, I don't know what to do with it.

Learned today that The Quintessential Curios has been incorrectly flagged as using generative AI. We're not quite sure why this happened yet, but rest assured it was written, drawn and laid out entirely by our weird, meaty, human hands. (+ some stock artwork) www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

Having difficulty proof-reading your work? Send it out for review. You'll immediately spot all the errors you should have found before sending it.

A chapter title page from something I've been trying to get out of my head an on to paper. God knows how this will come out in print but we'll give it a go. Fonts are "Hebi" by Ilham Albab and "Rubik Mono One" by Hubert and Fischer. Background is me photographing weird stuff.

If Starmer was visited by three spirits he'd have them branded a terrorist organisation.

This #selfpromosaturday I'm re-hyping MINIMAL IMPACT and IMPSOMNIA. These tiny #ttrpg s are one-shot focused and low-prep, perfect for casual game nights and last minute cancelations. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5... www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

You know what? If I'm going to pay ludicrous amounts of money to host my portfolio, I should stop feeling bad about shamelessly promoting it to those kind enough to follow me: www.zacharyelliotthatton.co.uk It's full of weird stuff, fun stuff, noisy stuff, and more weird stuff.

Do I have expansions and supplements to work on for existing games? Yes. Am I spending my time writing an entirely new game system? Also yes.

Over 200 pages of stuff! Maps, adventures, my wonky horse drawing, and more!

I've really been enjoying the speed and simplicity of the core dice mechanics I designed for I Could Do This In My Sleep, So much so that I've tried working them into other genres of #ttrpg. And I'm pleased to say that it just doesn't work. 1/...
