hi i'm getting a kickass set of new genitals installed in 2 weeks from now !! isn't that fucking cool ? i could use a little bit of help with medical bills + housing expenses during recovery and so i've set up a little gofundme! gofund.me/394dc2e93

So anyway the favorite game I've written this year is out! jellyfishlines.itch.io/townies

She keeps chewing on my damn hair

Emboldened by the articles of @jdragsky.bsky.social @anxiousmimicrpgs.bsky.social @jellyfishlines.itch.io and others, I wrote one of my own. gardn.fr/non-fiction/... Rules are a Ship and I'm a Pirate. But my games are too Kind and I must desire the Depths.

ashcan of DEAD INTERNET THEORY, my ttrpg about time travel and how online is a world-ending cognitohazard is now available anywhere you support my patreon. www.patreon.com/posts/dead-i...

Hey, if you wanna pick up all of my paid games, go to this sale. I'm working to try and get some cash saved for taxes this upcoming year. Everything is 45% off. itch.io/s/160807/tax...

I feel like one of the biggest innovations of ttrpgs was essentially just acknowledging that the GM is a player as well. I don't think we're all fully there yet, but it's heading in that direction, and the bakers have been well ahead of the curve for a long time now

For legal reasons, this is a joke.

The Mistress Playbook for #GirlFrame #mechsploitation, one of the playbooks for the Handler player (taking on the traditional GM role) Playtesting soon

Hey, I'm noticing you kids haven't praised the Hawkmoth King in a little while... You're not getting cold feet, are you? We can put some cicadas inside you to help with that.

medium.com/@isabellerue... Wrote a small essay on tiering your content warnings #ttrpg

Show is really a step up from my already fairly-high expectations. Great example of why we need to pay artists to make what they want to make

I'm bad at remembering to share my stuff here but the autistic mech-obsessed trans girls seemed to like this one #GirlFrame #ttrpg #mechsploitation

I've been thinking on how to apply the expressionist manifesto as a lens for looking at games, and I decided to demonstrate that approach by analyzing how Triangle Agency aims at expressionist goals and, in doing so, earns a place in my heart. www.tumblr.com/seraphim-ser...

i think a lot of conversations about whether or not a game "is safe" would be more productively shaped by: - how risky is this game - are players aware of and consenting to this risk - what are tools players can use to mitigate risk

I've liked my fair share of works that turned out to be made by reprehensible people. Removing those works from my life has never once been difficult. You can just do it. Barely requires any effort tbh.

big fan of the idea of "systems in motion" this article lays out; it gives a useful way to say... - you and i are playing the same game - we are reading the same game-text - we end up with different systems in motion

medium.com/@isabellerue... wrote a bit about @jdragsky.bsky.social's Expressionist Games Manifesto #ttrpg

Spent the last 4 hours writing about expressionism, I might have cooked with the essay (or might have made something incoherent) but I definitely cooked my brain

Losing my MIND over this link not having a preview image, but!This is an article in conversation with @jdragsky.bsky.social's Expressionist Games Manifesto and @sfxprb.bsky.social's post about said manifesto. We're talking about SUBTEXT, folks! Dive in! 200proof.games/blog/express...

This is a great article for getting at the techniques and ideas behind expressionist games that uses less game specific language. Reframing them in terms of subtex; which enables a framework for pulling in lessons from other medium

I've been reading and talking about the preview of this post for the past few days and it's been fascinating to look back at other games and consider future games and how they fit into this structure

@anxiousmimicrpgs.bsky.social Ahoy we are playing a round of Nights at the Demon Club over with a crew of wonderful supernatural souls from @happyjacksrpg.bsky.social. Your character archetypes are an absolute fucking delight! anxiousmimicrpgs.itch.io/nights-at-th...

Just started a game with the current playtest haha

I like to think of ttrpgs as collections of (usually material) systems that interact with each other with a goal of creating a specific experience I think of board games the same way, just that the desired experience is often a bit different. Use systems to create results 🤷‍♀️

New @plusoneexp.bsky.social games dropping at @flamecon.bsky.social at Table PR28. First up, with @jdragsky.bsky.social, who'll be on site signing books on Saturday! plusoneexp.com/products/pri... #FlameCon

PRAISE THE HAWKMOTH KING RETURNS HALLOWEEN 2025 Luck of the Harbor presents the return of the infamous tabletop roleplaying game by @anagogue.bsky.social, bringing you more of everything and invading your physical space. www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

Even from the most selfish perspective, people who like your friend's games might also like your games, and your friend being successful makes them more likely to be able to amplify *your* game successfully (also having friends to talk about game design with is awesome)

my mom taught me there's two kinds of businesses: hot dog stands and art galleries - hot dog stands protect territory and keep competition off their turf - art galleries benefit from more adjacent art galleries, cluster together to amplify reach/support youre an art gallery, not a hot dog stand

I had a chance to playtest this and it was an extremely fascinating experience. Suzi has a lot to say about bodies, highly recommend checking it out

My latest game is live! goat-song-publishing.itch.io/a-mirror-ref...

Just read through @anxiousmimicrpgs.bsky.social’s We Eat Roses to Grow Thorns and it’s a deeply impactful work, weaving metaphor and mechanic to create a very compelling game that I would only want to play with a specific group. anxiousmimicrpgs.itch.io/we-eat-roses

My latest blog is out! It's mostly about TTRPGs as a transitional medium, but also there is focus on the way that literature has inspired TTRPGs and will continue to do so. goatsongrpg.wordpress.com/2025/07/06/t...

anxiousmimicrpgs.itch.io/we-eat-roses I wrote a Belonging Outside Belonging autobiography. It's weird and fairly hostile

Been working on an autobiographical game recently, probably gonna release later this week.

Hey @anxiousmimicrpgs.bsky.social ! The YouTube VOD of my Haven one-shot set in the Star Wars Universe about Forces Witches has dropped. This was a love letter to The Acolyte and the Night Witches of Dathomir. Thank you for writing such an amazing game.

Tomorrow morning join me on the Outer Rim forest planet of Cyrus, where a Coven of witches have taken refuge for centuries. Only for their peace to be threatened by The First Order… The Power of Many. Featuring Haven by @anxiousmimicrpgs.bsky.social #StarWars #bipoc #ttrpg #charity #Maythe4th

Was talking a while ago in the PCG discord about "Growing Into" as a third scale - filling out a playbook or replacing moves and abilities with more restrictive (but perhaps more powerful) ones. Reducing choices as characters advance rather than increasing them

hey folks. I know money is tight all over, but it has been a time of great health costs for me lately (plus taxes, minus some delayed income). so if you’re interested in my games they’re currently 40% off (or you can grab everything I’ve ever published for just $40). cheers! itch.io/s/148351/40-...

Move for Harpies (corrupted girls)

One important part of Girl Frame is that the Handler, the GM role, also is a dedicated character with their own rules #ttrpg

I've set up an itch page for Buried Without Ceremony (including some community copies of each title)! If you're part of the itch community and love anything I've made, I'd love it if you left a comment or review. buriedwithoutceremony.itch.io

8/8 basic moves written for Girl Frame #ttrpg #indierpg #mecha

One of the 8 basic moves for Girl Frame

PRAISE THE HAWKMOTH KING, CHAPTER ZERO: ALLOSTATIC HYPERVIOLENCE is now available on itchio! are you unhappy with a culture of sex negativity and repression? do you crave games that lean harsher, grosser, weirder? do u ever wonder "what if slugblaster was a porno?" anagogue.itch.io/praise-the-h...

i'm with @sarahz.bsky.social , @ladyemily.nebula.tv , and @austinwalker.bsky.social right now as sarah plays SLAY THE SPIRE and we raise money for trans rights! www.youtube.com/live/iQ1FbkI...

A frame for Girl Frame: BAD GIRL #ttrpg #indie This frame is an Autocrat-Type, meaning its pilots are celebrities or propaganda pieces

PRAISE THE HAWKMOTH KING is a dark erotic pbta ttrpg i've been writing. it's like if blades in the dark and monsterhearts made a noncon snuff film together. i'll be releasing it on my itchio (anagogue.itch.io) in february

Something I really like about working on GIRL FRAME is how each category of Frame is horrible in some new and fun ways. Here is an Autocrat frame, which tends to have themes around its public relations and girlhood and perception And a Priestess frame, which wants to eat you #ttrpg
