It was so much fun playing For the Queen! Join us Tuesdays as Danny continues his experiment!

MONTH OF THE SNORSE!

Oh hey look at that.

I'm not sure if 'Do you want to feel emotionally unwell? Then watch Halley's Children!' is a convincing pitch, but I'm going to embrace it.

Eli here! With the end of the year fast approaching, Inferno has been getting a lot of love. So I just want to call out ALL of the amazing players I’ve had the pleasure of dragging through Hell. Thread incoming with so many amazing folks to follow! Guide art by @fizzeepopshop.bsky.social

There are games with the idea that the player characters are doomed — Mothership, Hunt, etc. Those are the exceptions, and I love APs on those kinds of games. I'm talking about games where failure is possible but not an expectation.

I want to be clear that there is no wrong answer here. Dimension 20 and Critical Role have famously allowed characters to defy death. If failure occurs, what are your plans for the bad ending? How do you make the possibility of failure interesting and fulfilling for the audience and the players?

I listen to a lot of Actual Play. Like more than I think people can imagine. Oftentimes, the player characters are the "winners," heroes of their story who emerge triumphant. We talk a lot about players accepting failure and utilizing it to push the narrative, but what about the GM?

After a pause, we are once again accepting pitches for games. If you've designed a TTRPG (especially one built on PbtA, Forged in the Dark, or Fate) that's near-complete, you can find details about how to pitch us (and the services we provide) here: evilhat.com/game-submiss...

Halley’s Children is one of my absolute favorite APs and what inspired me to get into more indie ttrpgs. i am not ready for it to end, but i cannot WAIT to see what @wyndhover.bsky.social has in store to punch me in the gut emotionally @streamingrainbow.bsky.social youtu.be/BIrU1zPYdY8?...

The world works off of the exchange of energy and relationships in a big messy cycle that is ecology. And worlds come more to life when they have this cohesiveness. One of my favorite videos that I do plan on revisiting at least with a few sequels. #TTRPG #DND youtu.be/v56ZWZSx7eA

Oh, looky looky here...

Today at 8PM Eastern on Youtube, join three achievement hunters as they venture into a vast VR experience and try to break the game! But what they find is not what they expected!

Sometimes we get too wrapped up in our own projects. Tell us someone whose work in the AP and TTRPG space we should be watching, and sharing!

When some of you realize that people are not just "follower count numbers" and that content creation is not a competition, that's when you'll thrive. It's a big table. There's room for everyone. Come sit with us, friend.

Three power gamers face off against a mystery in the code of the world's most popular VR game. We are having so much fun with this one, y'all. There's action, mystery, fantasy, sci-fi, and the power of friendship! Premiering this Tuesday 9/9 at 8PM Eastern!

I think, in light of all the rotten people out there spreading terf nonsense, today would be a good day to support trans creators. Trans folk, please add your links to this thread for books or crafts or whatever you do!

Applies just as much in the AP space.

✨We wanna hear your women-made indie TTRPG recommendations!✨ Let’s hear them, folks! Extra points for links, and don’t forget to check people’s pronouns to avoid misgendering.
