I think people confuse Art and Style when it comes to TTRPGs a lot tbh. You can have a lot of good art, but that doesn't give your TTRPG an actual "style" in terms of how it feels to read or interact with

My friend @boxen.bsky.social is working on this and I think folks should go back it. Is this nepotism? Maybe. Is this supporting a friend? Absolutely! www.kickstarter.com/projects/lea...

ya like jazz? (there's a jazz club in here) jellyfishlines.itch.io/dreamscapes

Here's where I'll be at #PaxU2025!! I'm running at GoD at 3 different times (no sign ups needed, just show up!) and I'll be at the Game Designer Meet and Greet on Sat morning with Emergent!! Super excited to see folks there!!!

“We made a program that racially profiles people so you don’t have to!” Every day we get closer to playing real life Wolfenstein and if that doesn’t scare you, you need to wake up.

I think the comparison here kind of fails when you look at the fact you can have an amazing world/sandbox available for people but you still run into one of the big problems playing ttrpgs: People aren’t good at making strong decisions and honoring the stakes of what’s going on.

Go buy @monroeroe.bsky.social games! He is one of the best game writers I’ve had the pleasure of playing with. I’ve had my eyes on All Towers for a while and highly recommend looking into it yourself!

Ok, hear me out, battle of the bands TTRPG, where players roll a pool of d8’s before getting into “combat” and then spend those d8’s to accomplish tasks/actions. If you spend your rolled dice in a certain way you get bonuses at the end of combat. Like Yahtzee and PBTA had a baby…

Things I have said as a DM, and also as someone working in social work. “Tell me about the last time you felt safe.” “You’ll probably feel better after a bath and some sleep.” “There are a lot of ways you could deal with this, arson is not one that I suggest, but I do understand.”

Sidebar, muting this. I'm starting to think people who find D&D is the ultimate hackable TTRPG... are a deeply incurious bunch, and an irritating one, at that.

I don’t fully understand it, but I think my gender now includes fangs. Watch out world! My evolution just went from a Pokémon line to a Digimon line.

I was talking about this topic last night with some friends. And I think this thread really explains the conclusions we landed on too.

Speaking into existence the Pirate Board of Psychologists wasn’t on the plans for this years roll for wishes, but I am so glad it happened. Thank you @quinnbeckham27.bsky.social and @makeawishintl.bsky.social For allowing for such a great game of Sail the Oceans Queer today!

Hehe, that’s me!

THIS IS TODAY! Come make me sing (I’m gonna embarrass myself for certain)

“i believe to what you are referring is a catapult, not a trebuchet” i say, sounding very cool and not at all like a loser nerd

The more vowels per consonants the higher likelihood that you’re a French in disguise. And we can’t have that.

This weekend, join me for another Roll for Wishes one shot!! Come for the gay pirate shenanigans, romance, and magical chaos, and donate to make @itsneongraffiti.bsky.social improvise songs with her ukulele!

You know you’ve reached peak comfort when you say “I was like 5 feet away” and your friend breaks out a measuring tape to FUCKING FACT CHECK YOU FOR THE SAKE OF AN ARGUMENT. It was 9 feet, but still my point stands.

Time for another Charity Improv Game for @makeawishintl.bsky.social ! This time we're running "Ooops All Divas!" Donations impact the game in real time, so come make the cast squirm! Check out tiltify.com/@logomancy/r... for more info! Tune in at twitch.tv/Logomancymedia #ttrpg #charity #improv

Patents and shareholders are the worst thing that happened to gaming. The nemesis system was so amazing, it was a real shame to watch it get cast into the darkness by greed.

When Hozier said “try to measure loss , measure the silence of a house, the unheard footsteps at the doorway, the unemployment of the mouth” do you think he was measuring in cups or grams? I’m trying to bake a 3 episode AP for November and I wanna make sure it’s got the right flavours.

By the time it’s a tattoo, it’s not a mistake. It’s a CHOICE.

A woman (me) is lost without the (garlic) sauce (from local shawarma restaurant). But the same woman (me again) can get lost in the (garlic) sauce.

The Circle of Wires and Whispers faces their final case this Halloween. Doppelgangers, immortals, and fate itself await. 🎃 10/31 • 8PM EST 📺 twitch.tv/ThePocketD... #CandelaObscura #RollForWishes #TTRPG

Welp, realized I didn’t have a personal starting soon or break screen for stream. Long story short I installed blender. Pray for me chat.

Bard is such a funny class in RPGs it's like Warrior: You have my axe Hunter: And my bow Bard: And my toot

New campaign idea, I get all my players to create characters who have supportive backgrounds and healthy relationships. There is no adventure, they just meet once a week to hang out with their friends.

Personal Actual Play projects in the pipeline. GIRL FRAME (Early 2026) PUBLIC ACCESS (Early-Mid 2026) .dungeon+RE//MASTERED (2026-27) ARKHAM HERALD: HOLD THE BYLINE (2026/27) UNNAMED INEVITABLE CAMPAIGN (2027) The timeline is tentative.

I run TTRPG’s like Bethesda builds video games. My players can’t tell if it’s a bug or a feature.

Just played Iron Lung for the first time. I was already primed to be terrified because of my fear of deep waters, but the limited visuals and excellent sound design had me quaking in my little tin can of a submarine the entire time.

Given the Digital Age we live in and the multiple horrors that make up the AI industry, it’s a real shame that Tron is a dead and dying series. Big win for Nine Inch Nails though. I hear the latest movie is a great music video.

I need everyone to meet my new friend. Their name is Ched Formaggio.

Guess who’s finally here!! It’s your favourite me.
