A close friend told me they wouldn't have guessed I was a Glee kid in high school, and it's the most reassured of my life choices I've been in a while 😌

Pigeon Mail reposting a piece from my solo show at Nucleus Portland because I'm writing a little love letter for my husband for Valentines day (d'aw) [ #kidlitart #illustration #watercolor #gouache ]

#SendHelp is so fun! I was not expecting the classic horror movie styling and loved it. I ADORE watching lovely performers play terrible people, and you kinda get double - I will take every chance to watch Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien steal scenes from each other for two hours 🔪❤️‍🩹🏝

My Monster of the Week mystery, Body Swap by the Big Top, is included in this bundle!

It's Bandcamp Friday! Anything you buy from your fave indie artist goes 💯 to them today. I usually just find a digital purchase and throw extra money on that so the artist gets complete profit.

Calling all Solo and Duet TTRPG creators/designers for a charity bundle!

i think we all need to step back and realize that peak art was made when neolithic pot in the shape of a pig was fired

It’s hard work on an unexplored planetoid, but at least we’ve got great tunes! Players are raving about the #Adaptory soundtrack, made by the incredible @vius.bsky.social, and now it’s available on a variety of platforms for your listening enjoyment! tunelink.to/adaptory #indiegame #earlyaccess

Hello. It's my final week as a full time game designer, and as if to underline why I can't do this anymore, I currently can't afford to cover my bills at the end of the month. All of my work on itch is on sale. Tell your friends, buy something, thank you very much. itch.io/s/179351/jan...

Quick warning for Kickstarter users below. KS Trust and Safety will literally NEVER contact you via DMs. Report this message if you get it.

📣 ATTENTION GAME DEVS! WE NEED YOUR VOICE! 📣 We're conducting a confidential survey on mental health & workplace stressors for people working within game dev. Your insights can help inform best practices and improve resources & support across the industry. Survey ➡️ bit.ly/TakeThisResearch

reminder that the solo but not alone bundle is going on right now! some of my games are in there :) support a mental health charity & get some solo games during a time where we could all use more play in our lives!! #ttrpg #indiettrpg itch.io/b/3481/solo-...

Dear artists, it's hard avoiding wondering if what we do is irrelevant or an insult when it's harsh, scary, dangerous & violent out there, but one thing is always true as stone: someone will need what you do, someone won't, & you won't know the difference. Err on the side of hope. Create if u can.

Artists, I think we're all too comfortable sharing our imposter syndrome. I would love to see you step out of your comfort zone and confidently state what you think you're actually really good at. No self deprecation, just what you think you're the strongest at Is anyone brave eniough? 👀

CALLING ALL BLACK GMS Hello 2026 I'm back with the GM & Producer sign up sheet for a Valentines event celebrating Black Love in TTRPGs. Showcasing Black characters getting to be In Love, being the Love Interest, doing romantic things. Call closes Saturday January 17th forms.gle/ZBMWEvL6pWa6...

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why: They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course. The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

important message to all bluesky users

#TTRPG Designers, players, & related nerds: @ttrpgcataloging.bsky.social is a group of Library & Information Science MA students are working on a research project focused on improving cataloging for TTRPGs — unbelievably important work! They’re seeking participants for interviews.

Trans TTRPG designers, especially if ur bi-poc, I wanna collaborate on a project I'm crowdfunding this Fall. Caged in a Flesh Mech is my coming out magnum opus as a baby queer & genderfluid person. I want the whole team to be diversely queer.

friend: I like your ocs, can you tell me more about them? me:

Happy New Year!!!!! Wishing all my unemployed games, journo, and tech friends a very JOB in 2026🙏

As the year end draws near remember this.

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

Welcome back to bsky from the exodus, friends. Don't forget, tagging your art is actually useful here and you can view ALL tags by just a certain user by clicking this!! Another tip, use your feeds!!

#Devmas with #Adaptory - Day 12 That’s all 12 Days of Devmas, explorers! Huge thank you from our team for all the support and excitement you’ve shared with us this year. And don’t worry, there’s plenty more content to come! Keep an eye on our socials, and we’ll see you soon! #indiegame #teamphoto

Hi, not everything you don’t like is AI and I need you to have better media and social literacy than that. Be a real hater and know your enemy.

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:

I'm not flawless at it, but it's important, folks And might I add, platforms, can you please make sure it's possible to add AFTER the post is up?? To account for screw ups now and then?? Thank

PSA: Answering "No" to the AI generation disclosure on itch automatically adds your project to the "No AI" tag ( itch.io/games/tag-no... ). Adding it to the tag field too just wastes one of your 10 tag slots (if you want a visible indicator that no genAI was used, add it to the description instead)

if the mta sold F/M swap merch they'd be funded for the next decade

Listen, we've had @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social do Dadlands, now we're getting Gladlands. I propose we complete the trio with Fadlands - a '90s arcade gaming inspired TTRPG campaign, full of snap bracelets, fruit scented pens, and glitter. How do we make this happen?? #ttrpg #dimension20

When I tell you I was LIVID ✨️🐝✨️

Ding dang cosmic horrors put a pause on our wondeful festive advent-ure! I mean, what? 🫢 Uh, forget I said that... But don't forget to tune in for the rescheduled game in January! And have a lovely holiday season, folks 😊💜

We're 80% of the way to our goal! Let's keep this going! Remember, all proceeds go to PATHA to support their court challenge against the puberty blocker ban. In exchange, you get some amazing TTRPGs from some awesome designers! Let's get to that goal and help trans kids: itch.io/b/3421/ban-t...

An oh so regular festive feature for y'all this coming Monday! And absolutely nothing scary or ridiculous will happen 😇🔥🎁

Kia ora, explorers! It's me, the new community manager behind the scenes, letting you know what you can expect from us in the lead up to our Early Access release on January 26th! #Adaptory #IndieGames #basebuilding #simulationgame #EarlyAccess #nicetomeetyou

"I can't afford to support my favorite author right now, I—" Reviews. Reviews are free AND they are a gift to authors that can keep on giving (i.e., exposure, marketing, algo boosts, etc.) Please, give the gift of reviews to your authors this holiday season. It really can make a difference!
