Heya #TTRPG folks! I'm looking for submissions for Sprigs & Kindling! An anthology zine featuring community works for @gauntletrpg.bsky.social and other CfB games! It's free, so I cannot pay you but you keep all the rights to your work including publishing it elsewhere. sprigsandkindling.com

Periodic reminder that using generative AI is a block. Pay and support real artists, or go rot in a compost heap. Or do both if that’s your mood — either way you’ll be helping something beautiful grow.

Amanda has lead the charge on a massive collaboration between so many different creators that's dore the CfB system. Sprigs & Kindling is a fucking delight.

I am SO hyped for PRG y'all this game looks so silly and awesome

Planet Raygun will blow minds. This is my transformation of the Carved from Brindlewood mystery system into a retro-futuristic adventure game. You love planning heists. You love heist montages. Planet Raygun does it in a blaze of glory: stuff I've heard people say ttrpgs just can't do. 😱

One of my favorite PAXU moments: there was a single game of The Between at Games on Demand. Three of the players came up to the booth afterward (at different times) and said it was one of the best—if not the best—RPG experiences they’d had. The group is even going to keep playing on Zoom!

I also want to shout out @cha0ticstupid.bsky.social for organizing and setting up the booth presence for @gauntletrpg.bsky.social this weekend. He was busy as hell leading up to this weekend and busy all throughout and thanks to that hard work, the whole team was in a place to fucking kill it.

come to booth 4142 if you love to listen to creators info dump about our inspirations and special interests!

Thank you to everyone who came by the booth today! We met a lot of amazing people, and can't wait to do it all over again tomorrow!

Day 2 of PAXU! Come by the booth, pick up Brindlewood Bay and get it signed!

Ready for Day 2 😎 If you're at #PAXU today, drop on by Booth #4142 to chat and check out our games!

Happy Friday, #PAXU! We're parked up with the folks from @plusoneexp.bsky.social at Booth #4142, selling copies of Brindlewood Bay and Trophy (plus some other goodies). See you there!

absolutely agog that this is free - truly the steal of the century

I wrote for this!!!

You can grab the first issue of Sprigs & Kindling now. Featuring essays, playbooks, threats, games, and more! Honored to have contributed a couple beauties to this joint. Shout-out @iamatrex.com & @jackofficer.bsky.social and all the other contributors and editors. sprigsandkindling.com

So many amazing people contributed to making this happen. If you are interested in any @gauntletrpg.bsky.social projects then this fan-made Zine has great ideas packed inside!

Build the one you lost… Be the most beautiful one everywhere… Carry a hidden curse… Hear the whispers of the dark entities that follow your every move… www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

We've raised $30K in overtime, but we need $10K more to unlock our final achievement, Blood & Coal! The Gauntlet is holding onto this backer train, but just barely! Any help we can get to cross the finish line is much-appreciated. Please re-post! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

Do fog and petticoats not do it for ya? Ride through a haunted Texas. Travel upon a doomed vessel. Conspire against.. or FOR the Moon King www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

Just because this campaign has somehow managed to go into 17 hours of overtime doesn't mean its not actually in its last five minutes. One of these 10 minute chunks is going to actually be the last. Still time to swoop in and get an RPG bargain.

Okay. Okay okay okay we are closing in on the VERY LAST STRETCH GOAL for The Between and the one I want the most: a new campaign, Blood & Coal. Here’s my favorite playbook from that campaign, The Daughter. Go pledge if you can! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

The Gauntlet Discord is in a frenzy. We just made a Fred Durst playbook (I blame @thebadspot.bsky.social).

If you've not seen the ridiculousness going on with the Backerkit overtime for The Between, it's honestly amazing Go check them out and keep their backer train going!

We’re still in overtime, with one more stretch goal to unlock! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

The Between is -a game of monster fighting, collaborative investigation, & eroticism -SEVERAL hours into overtime. right up the alley of many AP performers (including but not limited to @AramVartian & @Superdillin)https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/the-gauntlet/the-between?ref=bk-social-project

I (and others) have often said The Between will "rewire your brain," that it will change how you view the possibilities and potential of tabletop roleplaying games, especially when it comes to storytelling. Let's do a thread exploring this idea! #ttrpg #DnD #TTRPGs

The Between is on Backerkit right now (www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...) and Jason has a big thread on what makes it special here. I think it's worth reading ESPECIALLY if you're primarily exposed to more traditional D&D-y RPGs. A quick thread on this follows.

We are less than $6000 away from unlocking a new Mastermind: Gesod, High Imperator of Venus! This over-the-top, spacefaring villain brings an element of vintage sci-fi to The Between. Art by @amandalee.bsky.social 🌌 Back us on BackerKit 🌌 backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

DAY 6: THE WEAVER

DAY 5: THE MASK OF THE SUN

DAY 3: HEXCRAFT

So close to 2000 backers! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

Happy Wednesday! If you have a blog, website, podcast, or stream, I’d love to come talk to you about The Between! We’re almost at 2000 backers, but I’d love the chance to reach some more folks!

DAY 2: THE BOTANIST

We have created an actual play podcast for The Between, in partnership with @aintslayed.bsky.social: It’s a really fun listen—great cast, terrific production values, and an excellent way to learn the game. Get it wherever you get podcasts, or listen here: www.aintslayednobody.com/episodes/the...

*furiously rubs hands together in anticipation until the skin peels off, revealing the whirring clockwork underneath*

There are less than 80 Hargrave House bundles remaining! Not only does this pledge level get you all three books, but it's your ONLY chance to grab the Mastermind Dice; we will not be making more! Don't miss out! Get them before they're gone: backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

31 Days of HalloBetween! A thread celebrating the bizarre, grotesque, and downright horrifying world of The Between! (Art by Ania APART)

Individual books are now available for add-ons on BackerKit!! This is the best deal to get multiple copies of The Between for your table or flgs!

We are less than $8k away from Shadow Society being blessed by the presence of a wicked Christmas threat about Undead mummers written by Amanda! This book NEEDS this Threat! Feel free to ask me any questions about The Between you have and how we can get ya playing it asap!

New Add Ons! You can add extra books now!!! Thanks, @gauntletrpg.bsky.social :D :D :D I've updated my pledge to grab an extra set!! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

we're closing in on this goal!! This kit will be so helpful and we'll have SO MANY GAMES :D www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

Also, until we're able to do this, you can go ahead and create CfB games! If you need feedback on what you're working on, there's no better place to go than our Discord server: discord.gg/K5myJQc4Bc

I am so excited about this stretch goal. Please help us reach it!

Very excited for this campaign and stretch goal in particular. I’ve been chasing around ideas for a cfb game (or maybe just a mystery or two) for a few months now. Hoping this’ll serve as my inciting incident 😅

The conclusion of our interview with Jason Cordova goes into genre emulation, independent publishing, and the sex lives of the Victorians. Something for everyone! blasphemoustomes.com/2024/08/20/s...

We have many stretch goals lined up for The Between, but the one we're working on now is the one I'm most excited about: The Carved from Brindlewood Creator's Kit! If funded, this is a resource we're going to make free to the public once it's finished. Let's talk about it! (1/)

The Between is less than $1K away from unlocking The Monochromatic Men of Three Mills Island! This is a cosmic horror scenario involving multi-color corpses, an invisible star beast, portals, and a veiled woman with transparent skin. Get into it! #TTRPG www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...
