In a couple of weeks, Sam and Kate will be joining Will at TAGS Festival in Edinburgh! Come and chat about comics and games and sci-fi and horror and all that good stuff.

My toil is done. Check your inboxes!

I'll be posting this as soon as I've paid the bread tithe to my liege lord

The book is now heading off for its full print run, which can mean only one thing: the Strang Beorn PDF drops tomorrow! #ttrpg #mörkborg

This Sunday! It's the Border Reiver wargames show in Gateshead. Come say hi! (There might even be a sneak peak of the new Exo-Squad prototypes.)

The TTS haul! The excellent second printing of Wanderhome by @jdragsky.bsky.social. An intriguing new game by @peregrinecoast.press. Pitcrawler by @jonnysims.bsky.social. The flood bell by @willtempest.bsky.social + @samtempest.bsky.social . Brother why by @josh-hivemindgames.bsky.social!

Did you like Captain Bucky O'Hare growing up? Enjoy interesting indie TTRPGs? Hit up @gravegoodspub.bsky.social at #tabletopscotland

We’re at F2-10 for the final day of @tabletopscot.bsky.social! #TTS2025

@tabletopscot.bsky.social day 2! @willtempest.bsky.social and @samtempest.bsky.social are set up at F2-10! If you ask nicely, you can have a sneaky look at the Strang Beorn test print… #TTS2025 #TTRPG #comics

For the first day of @tabletopscot.bsky.social I've been in an airport. I'm still not sure when I'll leave. Maybe this is where I live now. It's been great. Hope everyone had an amazing first day!

Today!

I designed this logo! The project deserved an epically solid slab of angles and colour so you can understand how excited I am about the new Space Dwarf miniatures. (Click the "notify me on launch" button pls pls.) www.kickstarter.com/projects/cur...

If you're heading to @tabletopscot.bsky.social this weekend, drop by and say hi at F2-10! @samtempest.bsky.social and @willtempest.bsky.social will be there all weekend with games, books, comics and more.

Come say hi! I might even bring the Strang Beorn test print along for people to flick through

The Strang Beorn hardback is looking NICE

We're launching the Backerkit for Strang Beorn today! Surveys will be dropping in your inboxes over the next couple of days. If you want to update your name as it appears in the book, get your answers in before September 7th, as we'll be finalising the PDF to send out after Tabletop Scotland!

more sketchbook

Some of the art from the RPG's i've made with @samtempest.bsky.social. They're all available as pay-what-you-want PDFs over on our itch. tempestrpg.itch.io

I'm really proud of what we've made and I can't wait to see it in print!

We have a new update for August! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gra...

A quick reminder on #freettrpgday that Saint Magnus and Frogmen are both available for free on our itch! tempestrpg.itch.io

Our little collection from #UKGE2025! It’s a mix of long-wanted games and minis, new discoveries, and impulse grabs. So many wonderful creators, so little space in the backpack! (Flat lay insistently overseen by Fred the Grave Goods dog.)

Didn’t expect the #UKGE lurgy to hit on the evening of day 2, but turns out a blocked nose waits for no one. Still, we had an amazing few days and it was lovely to meet such excellent folks in the aisles. We’ll post a photo of our humble haul tomorrow after we’ve mustered the energy to unpack!

Day 2! We’re wandering around #UKGE again today, say hi if you see us!

Spot the Cairn Skolk that haunts the graves of Strang Beorn at @nohr.se’s pop-up shop in Sweden!

We're here! #ukge

Enjoying a glass of nurgle's rot

Well, we had to stand on the train for the first two hours, but we ( @samtempest.bsky.social and @airymouse.com ) are on our way to #UKGE! We’re free range this year, so we’ll be wandering around and emptying our wallets. If you see us tomorrow or Saturday, please say hi!

I wrote another dev log. This one's about the maps of Strang Beorn and to use them in play! #ttrpg #maps www.gravegoodspub.co.uk/post/strang-...

Had so much fun chatting to local creators yesterday, there so many cool game designers in Cornwall! If anyone is about in Cornwall this exhibition is on for the rest of the week

We’ve had a lovely evening chatting with other game makers at the On a Roll! exhibition at the Fish Factory in Penryn. There’s such a great community on our doorstep, and it’s a privilege to display our work alongside everyone else’s!

Some new art for Strang Beorn

It’s somehow already May, and we’ve been busy bees. Here’s a quick update on Strang Beorn! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gra...

Another quick update for those interested www.kickstarter.com/projects/gra...

Coming up next: On a Roll! We’re exhibiting at the Fish Factory in Penryn alongside other local game creators this month. We’ll be showing off some art and writing from Saint Magnus and Strang Beorn - including a first look at one of our double page spreads. 13-16 May, 10-5pm, free entry!

Can't wait for this!

This game is really fantastic. Jump on this asap if you're a fan of working class horror, cosmic horror, carpenter's the thing, the area x trilogy, the colour out of space, stuff like that!

The OG is back in stock at gravegoodspub.co.uk! The Flood Bell Tolls in Saint Magnus is a sodden system-neutral #ttrpg campaign setting about an island nation on the brink of collapse, and the magic that helped bring it to its knees.

I'll be giving a talk and signing at La Belle Adventure in Edinburgh on Saturday 19th. If you're around be sure to stop by!

A new dev log has emerged! I've been reading bardic poetry. www.gravegoodspub.co.uk/post/strang-...

Realised I completely switched off bluesky after our Kickstarter ended and now a month seems to have passed. I'll be posting more regularly from now. First, here's an update: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gra...

Hey folks! It's started raining again, so we've retreated from the beer gardens and made really good progress on Strang Beorn instead. Will and Sam are nearly finished with the stretch goal additions, and Kate's starting her first editing pass of the book!

Short Sword Vol.2 is now available in my store. This volume collects my last few comics: A Few Questions, The Rain It Crawls, The Excavation of Ankud, Grub Street and The Perfectionist, as well as some sketches and designs from the stories. www.willtempest.com/shop/p/short... #comics

TAGS is back for its third year, and this time we're doing two whole days on October 25h and 26th! Table applications open on April 15th - sign up here to get an email when we open: www.quindriepress.com/tags-exhibit... 🏷️

What a wild month! 282 backers and a worn-out F5 key later, we're done with #ZineMonth. We're going to take a breather for a couple of days, haunt a beer garden while the sun shines, and then put our heads down on getting this book ready for you all. Thank you so much for your support!
