The Serenity Springs Kickstarter is up for only three more days! Throw your players into a monochrome horror dimension based on 1950s suburban America! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gri... #ttrpg #D&D #5e

Funded! Thank you to everyone who supported and shared the project! Now back to work polishing and editing. #dnd #ttrpg #kickstarter #5e www.kickstarter.com/projects/gri...

Serenity Springs brings the horrors of 1950s suburbia to your roleplaying game sessions. Avoid the G-men and keep your lawn perfect or face the consequences.

Want to learn more about Serenity Springs? Tune in to @talesfromelsewhere.bsky.social tomorrow at 10:00 am (PST) where Peter and I will discuss the unique blend of history, design, and offbeat ideas that eventually became Serenity Springs. www.youtube.com/live/DV0GdNv... #ttrpg #dnd #5e

COMING SOON......👀

And we're live! #ttrpg #dnd #5e www.kickstarter.com/projects/gri...

Major kudos to @excalibird.bsky.social for her work on the two covers for Serenity Springs! The project goes live on Kickstarter tomorrow! #dnd #ttrpg #5e

“Why do you think now is the right time for ttrpg players to trade their plate armor for a cardigan and a dark secret?” My answer took a lot of soul searching and re-writing, but I was really happy with the result. grinningportalgames.com/blog/why-ser... #ttrpg #dnd #5e #politics

Here's what Serenity Springs' kitbashed artstyle looks like in practice. We took this (archive.org/details/hous...) image from Household Magazine, and added a hand-drawn Alien getting ready for mischief. #ttrpg #dnd #5e

Thanks for the interview @geeknative.bsky.social!

Serenity Spring's artwork is kitbashed from old 1950s magazines. It's not hard to find unintentionally creepy pictures like the one below. She has absolutely murdered someone with that clock and will kill again. Source: archive.org/details/hous...

How does one get in or out of Serenity Springs? A magic item called the Universal Remote teleports you there for petty reasons. This vengeful little contraption exists in some form in every plane, sending all manner of life-forms to Serenity Springs. More shapes in the comments!

A 1950s suburb isn't gonna have traditional DnD dungeons, so how about a landed Roswell-coded UFO? Notes to my music guy for this part just reads "Theramin ass theramin." Intrigued? Check out the Kickstarter for Serenity Springs, launching March 31 tinyurl.com/3pppxe2h #ttrpg #dnd #5e

In Serenity Springs, walking somewhere always takes 1 hour while driving always takes 10 minutes. Its a navigation challenge for the players, and a parody of the car-dependence kicked off in this era. Intrigued? Check out the Kickstarter, launching March 31. tinyurl.com/3pppxe2h #ttrpg #dnd

In Serenity Springs, sentient TV static called The Hayze censors all violence and nudity. The spelling is a direct reference to the Hays Code, a real thing that rigidly confined media in the 20th century. Intrigued? Check out the Kickstarter, launching March 31 tinyurl.com/3pppxe2h #ttrpg #dnd

#SelfPromoSaturday time! Serenity Springs is my biggest project yet, a setting and adventure for 5E based on 1950s suburban America, launching on KS at the end of the month! What other #ttrpg projects are folks working on? www.kickstarter.com/projects/207...

The No ICE in Minnesota Charity Bundle has officially LAUNCHED! There are 1,439 games to discover for a $10+ donation to Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota! Purchase the bundle here: itch.io/b/3484/no-ic...

8 hours left to submit any game/game adjacent itch project (new or current) to the No ICE in MN bundle, benefitting the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota. I've added my most popular game, so if you don't already have Ready, Set, Bake!, watch this space for the bundle Feb 9. itch.io/jam/no-ice-i...

This motivated me to finally get my work up on itch.io. I've added my very modest library to the bundle. Fellow game designers: if you can afford it, please consider joining. All proceeds go to the Minnesota Immigration Law Center. #ttrpg itch.io/jam/no-ice-i...

anyway it's a new year, a year in which we plan* to release 4 (+ actually) issues, and so for the fifth year running I am on my hands & knees begging people to try sending us info about what they're working on, ideally 2-3 months before release our inbox for all press releases is [email protected]
