We'll be at Magfest next week with some cool unranked games and propaganda, plus offering up a little sneaky peaky at what we're bringing to the table in 2026. 🌚 Who else is going to be there this year?

ashcan edition of the new game is ready for MAGfest!

Necromancer Heretic is a really interesting game. I wrote about how it uses blackjack as a mechanism at Skeleton Code Machine: www.skeletoncodemachine.com/p/necro-here...

Anybody got a Solo RPG that would be fun to play to celebrate NYE? Our plans for a Xmas/New Years episode of @partyofonepodcast.bsky.social fell through and I'd like to record and drop something quick and fun today before the new year.

Hey #MAGfest folks! I'll be at the MITS hall all weekend during MAGfest with some tiny indie ttrpgs! In addition to selling my games, I'll be demoing Moon Rings and playtesting a new game! Come say hi!

TTRPG Design: The Game Start with a very good idea (hardest step) Then, decide how combat works (not optional). How many stats are there? There's a right answer. Add art and shit Write the game (no testing, it's good) Gaze upon your product. Congrats, you did game design the correct way!

I need to try out different printers I think. Definitely doing a different company for the next game

Join us at 3pm ET on the 1st of January for a New Year's LIVE AT THE TABLE - @notquitereal.bsky.social, @carberry.deals, and @sylvibullet.bsky.social will be playing the ashcan edition of @adambell.games's Locked Room Murder Mystery lockedroomgame.com twitch.tv/friendsatthetable

I sense an influx of people who might be interested in TTRPGs! Check out our starter pack go.bsky.app/HGiNepJ

Honored to see Necromancer Heretic included among some other really dope games!

Who has solo journaling ttrpgs that they love and recommend? Could be one your played or one you made! I'm looking for one to vibe with soon.

Finished up some WIPs from 2025 this week, including the painting to the right, inspired by @junkfoodgames.bsky.social's wonderful solo journaling game "directionless" to the left!

Restocked! Necromancer Heretic is a solo journaling game about a void sorcerer trying to bring their lover back from the dead. Content Warning: violence, death, and blood. www.indiepressrevolution.com/xcart/Necrom...

Hey folks! Did you know that it's really easy to find games made by poc on itch.io? Just use the "poc made" tag! There you'll find your next fav TTRPG & support some great designers, new and old! If you're a designer, tag your games poc-made so they show up on the feed! itch.io/physical-gam...

Made some progress today. Printed and assembled about 40 zine games

I've been thinking about how to organize a silent/solo game meetup for a while. At a library? Somewhere else? I love the idea of playing solo ttrpg games together. The idea is not unlike silentbook.club but the logistics, as with all things, can be complicated. Any experiences to share?

My to-do list for MAGfest prep is too many items

Steal my gift idea: Every year I hand-pick a small/zine/solo TTRPG for each person that I play games with. I get to support indie creators/small press AND show my people I love them. And if I’m extra lucky, I get to play the non-solo ones with them. 😊❤️

Not my own game project, but I've been folding some tiny zine games for solstice gifts. This one from @junkfoodgames.bsky.social is one of my go-to tiny solstice gifts for anyone I've not given it to already, so my team at work is getting it this year. junkfoodgames.itch.io/a-shrine-for...

Huge thanks to Scarlet for playtesting this with me! Got some good ideas for changes to make. I'm very excited about this game!

Couple days left for this sale!

This new game might be the hardest one yet to write. Also, I might bring an early version to MAGfest to demo/playtest

MAGfest will be the next big event I'll be attending. I'll be there all 4 days. If anyone wants to meet up and chat, or just say hi, feel free to hit me up! (it's also somehow less than a month away 😬😬)

Critique Navidad, and today I bring you mindfulness in the form of gorgeous tracing and journaling game the Bonsai Diary! An unexpected holiday gift? Find out idlecartulary.com/2025/12/11/c...

my games are on end of year sale AGAIN until DEC 20TH go get yourself or a friend or your cousin a TABLETOP GAME for 50% OFF itch.io/s/171319/mar...

There are too many talented designers around me Y'all are too inspiring

been talking to my friends about these games a lot, really love this article highlighting their perspectives. i hope ttrpg people are paying attention to what @xoe.gay is doing, because it's about to steal our lunch money and leave us in the dirt

Noticed some issues on a print run that just got delivered. This means that each copy of Moon Rings will be hand checked by yours truly

Ok my family does a gift exchange every year, and a lot of them are big board/card game people. I’d like to get a TTRPG that is adjacent to that. Current thoughts are Fiasco, Alice is Missing, and The Quiet Year, but I’d love it if anyone has other ideas!

I played Crisis in the Jwi-dal of Musin by @hessan-yongdi.itch.io ! This is a great solo mystery game that uses the Hints and Hijinx system. Inspired by historical K-dramas, you're a detective in early 1700's Korea trying to find out what happened to the keeper of a royal tomb!

Today marks my 36th time around the sun! I'm putting my stuff on sale for the next week junkfoodgames.itch.io

Mail day! Just got my copy of Moon Rings by @junkfoodgames.bsky.social and The Bonsai Diary by @stickydoodler.bsky.social! Pretty psyched to check these out. This was also my first time ordering from @tabletopbookshelf.com but I’ll definitely be repeating the experience!

Everyone near Baltimore go visit @junkfoodgames.bsky.social and @mallenhall.com and all the other cool indie TTRPG vendors!

I'll be at Peabody Heights Brewery all day today for their Tabletop Holiday Market organized by @justinsirois.bsky.social ! Come swing by!

ICYMI, here's a recording of the chat I had with Xoe and Matt from Lunarpunk Games the other night! They are doing such cool things over there, so I was honored to have been invited to talk with them.

Glatisant has arrived from @graftbound.bsky.social ! It looks so good!

First snow of the season baybeeee!

This could be you too! shop.binarystar.games/products/voi...

Gonna do an itch sale next week for my birthday, with the classic discount % = the age of my flesh vessel

Super excited for our next event! We always have a blast at Peabody Heights Brewery. #ttrpg #holidays www.facebook.com/events/18131...

Happy Critique Navidad, Moon Rings! Is this solo game about witches seeking the ending of a cursed moon a stellar journalling game, or something else entirely? Find out! idlecartulary.com/2025/12/04/c...
