This is so fucking funny and so damn good. No one is doing it like @jessfrom.online

this is amazing lol

PART THREE IS OUT PART THREE!!!! Our musical-improv One Shot of Last Train to Bremen continues! We're doing a live-listen in the One Shot discord tomorrow night, but the episode is up for you to hear now!

I feel like there is a not insignificant number of heritage and museums folks who might find this exciting....

still figuring out if insurance will cover it, but in the meantime it'd mean the world if you'd consider: 1. picking up my latest game "The Vatican Stole the Menorah and We're Going to Steal Back": jumpgategames.itch.io/tvstmawgtsib 2. or a 20% bundle of all my other games: itch.io/s/176257/jum...

Hey, my friend and an amazing game designer, Jess Levine, just had her car wrecked overnight. If any of you can help her out then please do so, and get some of her excellent games whilst you're doing so!

Buy Jess' games and help her deal with some nightmarish car problems. You get to enjoy some cool times with your friends AND Jess gets to fix her car with less headache. Win-win.

Just picked this up - it's 93% to its goal of print copies too! jumpgategames.itch.io/tvstmawgtsib

here's da development moodboard

if you’re a fan of I Have the High Ground, satah’s design consulting was absolutely critical to making that game what it is if you’re looking for another 2-player TTRPG to try, go check out a new game from that very same designer!!!

satah is one of my fav designers out there and blackout is SUCH a cool game, i am SO glad it’s out and you should absolutely go get it immediately. as always, satah’s ability to squeeze incredibly thematic TTRPG mechanics out of other mediums is unparalleled. blackout is SO clever & cool.

in blackout, your characters can communicate with each other thru letters, voicemails, dead drops... but you, as a player, can only communicate thru fragments of found poetry. interpret the poems you send & receive in logs & see how your stories diverge from their shared start satah.itch.io/blackout

blackout is an (almost entirely) asynchronous journalling game for two players about redacting, interpreting, & straining against the confines of language. it's played by creating & communicating through blackout poetry. playtest version with community copies out now satah.itch.io/blackout

ever find yourself wishing Honey Heist was dreidel-powered and about stealing the Temple menorah from the Vatican Secret Archives? 🎲🕎✡️ well, that was a strangely specific thing for you to want, but luckily, i have the EXACTLY game for you, itchfunding now and you should check it out!!!

We’re now more than halfway to the itchfunder goal! Check out the game, and help make the print run a reality!

jewish? bored? nothing you want to see in theaters? order some chinese food, pick up a copy of The Vatican Stole the Menorah and We're Going to Steal it Back, and lock in for a couple hours of the silliest ✡️ jewish TTRPG 🎲 you have ever played

I RELEASED A NEW TTRPG!! it's very silly & full of jewish shitposting!! your attributes are "GREAT", "MIRACLE", "HAPPENED", and "THERE!", your progress clock is candles on a menorah, and these are the kind of tables i put in there. if we do $613 in sales before Jan 1 i'll do a trifold print run!

And we're itchfunding a print run! If we makes $613 in sales by 12 Tevet 5786 (January 1st 2026) we'll do a professional print run of the trifold available for sale! Pick up the PDF for your party in the next week & help us make this a reality!

We've also got even *more* bits, dreidel-based resolution with a menorah-based progress clock, and more! Check it out on itch ASAP and pick up a copy, on sale for $4!

A perfect party game for your Jewish Christmas and/or goyish New Year party. No prep needed—we've got full tables of bits. We've also got four dreidel-based attributes: GREAT - Bravery, skill, prowess MIRACLE - Luck, divine favor HAPPENED - Forethought, planning THERE! - Kludging, improvisation

Just in time for Jewish Christmas, we have a new TTRPG 🎲: The Vatican Stole the Menorah and We're Going to Steal it Back! TVSTMAWGTSIB is a dreidel-powered heist TTRPG about reclaiming the Temple menorah from the Vatican. Itchfunding a print run till Jan 1! 📆 🔗: jumpgategames.itch.io/tvstmawgtsib

as a member of the secret remnants of the Bund, this game is highly relevant to my interests

cohost mentioned

please do grab this even if solely so i can potentially have the experience of seeing a physical stack of the perfect sentence that is its title

i'm sure you'll all be happy to know i printed this out immediately after buying it and immediately messed up both printing and folding it, leading to me creating an illegible, non-Euclidean mess of a trifold leaflet

I adore @jessfrom.online so much

me, @blujayh.itch.io and @sixvalentine.bsky.social had the pleasure of playtesting this game. we listened to a shitty MIDI of Hava Nagila while listening, which caused the game to feel like a beautiful Judaism-powered manic episode. Our heist included a horrid young pope and 'Jew-bending'. Silly fun

it’s good. play it
