Are you ready to clock in? Your shift started! Support W.F.H. (Worry. Fear. Horror.) on Backerkit now! It’s like if Alice is Missing and This Discord Has Ghosts In It and Severance had a really weird throuple baby www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

i am so so excited for this <3 come listen to me talk abt my game pleaseee

TOMORROW, 2/2/2026, at 7:00 PM EST, it's The Dovecote with @barcstravis.bsky.social! Tune in as we discuss his project 'Begin Again', Zine Month, and more! twitch.tv/darlingdemon...

on a note that is completely unrelated to this post in any way: i found these messages from december 2023(!!) when ‘begin again’ became a belonging outside belonging game (featuring a mention of @wildwoodsgames.bsky.social, of course)

please at least listen to the cold open on this one

Hey, you can catch me on 2 actual play streams this week! This Friday, I'm playing HEAVEN IN THE DUST with @madelancholy.bsky.social, @smilingmythos.bsky.social, and @wildwoodsgames.bsky.social on the @plusoneexp.bsky.social channel at 8 ET, I can't wait for some Hadestown-style shenanigans!

hello! i quietly put my itch work on sale yesterday bc i felt weirdbad about asking for financial help when there's so much Awful Shit happening. but then this morning i had to spend an extra $100 i didn't really have to spare at the mechanic. so here it is on the timeline

fulfilled my butch & eldest son duties of helping shovel the two feet of snow in our driveway 🫡❄️

doubling down on this. feb 1 to feb 7 i have four different recordings/games for four different projects. which may not seem like a lot to some of you who do this full time but for me? very cool and exciting

recording day

got the finished art for begin again today and i am so excited about it. im being so brave and patient but you should all also be excited

three of my best friends in the world were just the first people to ever play "begin again" & i'm really emotional about it. who could've seen this coming

being really unemployed (temporarily, but still) is terrifying but i have been filling my weeks with tabletop game work in a way that is so delightful to my brain. i love games!

logged back into my twitch account for the first time in years bc i'm thinking about streaming again & realizing i'm an affiliate?? i gotta get back in there!

That's me! Barclay and Bee foolishly let me poison their minds with tales of mecha combat... except actually no @salvageunion.bsky.social skews a lot more towards non-combat options than you might think! Mecha isn't just for perverts (/pos & /neg), you've also got the power of collective action!

fire on deck! (finished commission)

the “i have a degree in theatre” answer is hadestown. the “i’m a queer gen z theatre kid” answer is spies are forever.

i’m probably embarrassingly late to this but i don’t care. everyone play koriko Now

in 2025 i * made my directorial debut * graduated college * illustrated playbook art for ‘heaven in the dust’ * “finished” (needs editing) ‘begin again’ * expanded my social circle * got a new job i actually like * changed my name legally * played lots of games * started work on ‘first blood’

i was so excited to record stuff this day and then truly as soon as i closed my laptop after talking to sage, my voice was GONE. sorry to anyone we didn't get to talk to that we wanted to 😭

get in loser. there's blood on the damn clocktower. FIRST BLOOD is looking for new & beginner BOTC players who are interested in being part of a video series where we all learn the game and its meta together! this is a general interest check, but will also be used to cast our pilot/test episode.

wait guys.. dispatch is a really good game. is anyone talking about this?

intended to spend at least some of today editing begin again but instead i had to lay carpet in my bedroom butch style

lots of “networking” talk on the timeline recently, here’s my take: pax was the event that taught me not to be scared of talking to cool people, because 99% of the people i talked to were people i just found out existed at that moment and when i said “you seem cool” they felt the same way about me

I love this guy ((Hey look it's my first two block print!))

following it up by playing another clearly keyboard and mouse game. the gamers are gonna crucify me for this

blatantly stole this from jeff but he’s right. tis the season

got a steamdeck today (huge for the program), immediately bought myself some good games for it, and instead i replayed* the roottrees are dead

i don’t have 10 ideas off the top of my head rn but here’s a number of them - werewolf transformation game - fistfighting faggot game - queer dating sim - fantasy VN about a fucked up magical royal family - some sort of mystery/deduction game cuz i’m really into those rn - who knows what else 🤷‍♂️

you have about a week to submit to this if you’re interested, we’re closing it at midnight on new year’s, eastern time! come play blood on the clocktower with me & my friends :3

I've got a game in this trans and anarchist zine & ttrpg bundle, raising survival funds for Lazarus ❤️‍🩹 There's seriously a huge variety of games here, and it's /pay what you want/ 🤯🤯 itch.io/b/3454/fundr...

legal name change just went through. merry christmas to me

i think the first version of what begin again is now started here, almost two years ago. but i think the concept that eventually turned INTO begin again is from a good 6 months before this, if not more! i chipped away at this marble block for a loooong time lol

i don’t listen to nearly as much actual play as i should for someone who does a lot of podcast listening. what should i be listening to! pls give even ur most basic “surely you’ve heard this” recs bc i probably haven’t. i’m a real poser

i’ve received cold emails from people to my podcast before. and usually i respond well to them. so why does it feel like i’m hyping myself up to commit a crime when i think about sending one

36 hour to go www.kickstarter.com/projects/521...

we’re so back

50 presaves! As promised please enjoy the full beauty of @helenacore.bsky.social's cover art for RISE, WIZARDS! @captainkrail.bsky.social's Rise, Wizards! is such a blast and this piece captures the vibes of play perfectly

returning to linocut which means, as always, spreading out every stamp i’ve made on my desk so i can remember what i’ve done

cloverpit good btw. finally got a chance to try it today

as of right now, we're planning to leave this open until the new year so busy schedules don't interfere with people who are interested & our reaching out to them. we're really excited by the amount of folks that have already filled it out-- thank you!! :]

baby’s first minizine game layout. i luv this game it rules. thx bee for letting me do this for u

just put my zine from #PaxU up on itch :-) in FOOD FIGHT!, two players use a food delivery app to draft parties of FOOD FIGHT!ers, then they face off in combat. art and layout by @barcstravis.bsky.social 🔗 beealexander.itch.io/food-fight

i am finally playing return of the obra dinn, after watching a playthru long enough ago that i don’t remember it, but i forgot that my FAVORITE MOMENT happens ALMOST IMMEDIATELY? which truly does show how little i remember of this game

i also finished the manuscript for “begin again” today. if anyone cares. cursed myself with writing a timeloop game for Two Years, much like i’ve been trapped in a

Coming Zine Month 2026 Rise, Wizards! by @captainkrail.bsky.social is a dice-stacking, map-making game of wizard hubris All's Fair by @superdillin.bsky.social is a duet game about wanting each other so bad you save the world about it Thrilled to be running a two game campaign this zine month!
