Finally! Friday night was my first time GMing @blackfiskpub.bsky.social's #HeroesOfCerulea! It looks like I have a regular player group so we're going to play the campaign. SO convenient @ceruleanfive.bsky.social released new content less than a couple weeks ago! #ttrpg

Four character sheets for Heroes of Cerulea, each with paper item cards. Below them, a handful of four-sided dice and paper cut-out dungeon rooms.

Recently, we played Blood Feud at a con. We fell in love with it all over again, but figured we could make it even easier to get the game to the table. So we created a starting playset based on our session. It's out now, for free. (And the game is PWYW.) blackfiskpub.itch.io/a-web-of-amb...

Well done @thomas-munier.bsky.social and @blackfiskpub.bsky.social - truly a lovely cover, which I could only capture in its shimmer with a short video. I can't wait to get into this!

Great work! This is also a useful resource for improving our standard contract (I think we would have scored 86). Many thanks!

Today TTGDA released what we believe is our most important effort so far - our Licensing Contract Rubric. This is an objective scoring metric that can be used to partially evaluate the quality of a contract. We applied it to a huge swath of the industry, and this chart shows how they scored. 🧵 🎲✂️

3. Heroes of Cerulea by @ceruleanfive.bsky.social is one of my latest acquisitions. I had the pleasure of playing it live as a promo to the kickstarter in the Victory Condition Gaming channel. It is heavily Legends of Zelda themed and is a dungeon crawl rpg that is a gigantic NES nostalgia bomb.

Cheers to a drop weekend! New stuff's in the shop, like... Knight Forlorn by @blackfiskpub.bsky.social ☾ A collaborative dark fantasy storytelling game for 1-3 players, alternating through the roles of The Lead (the Knight's thoughts and actions), The Narrator (the world), and The Chorus (the mood)

The cover of Knight Forlorn: A storytelling game about a lone wanderer on a futile quest in a withering world, by Lucas Falk and Bläckfisk Publishing. The title is stark white calligraphy agains a pink image of a knight in standing in fog, their sword drawn, approaching a bunch of crumbling buildings

An interior example from Knight Forlorn. On the lefthand page, an image of a large full pink moon looming beside the character. The heading says Ending The Game and includes a short description. The righthand page begins the list of possible Encounters. This page lists encounters for drawing the suit of hearts - Ace, two, and three. The encounters are all with NPCs/people (Puck the Jackal, Wolfram the Hunter, Frieda the Pilferer)
