So close to finishing another #BrachyrSystem adventure! It's been a rough month dealing with other stuff but plodding along on this. I hope once it's done, you all like it. #indiettrpg #devlog #ttrpg

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

Gotta get myself back into the habit of working on #BrachyrSystem stuff. Paused because life hit like a tidal wave and basically stalled out. Anyway! New adventure coming soon, Leaning slightly more on the #clockpunk direction the system's taking. Just thought I'd #devlog. Hi folks!

Considering adding a worldbuilding blog to my writing desk website. With the caveat that all worldbuilding snippets are structured like in-world academic excerpts or journal entries etc. Just for a little variety yknow? How do you present random #worldbuilding tidbits? #ttrpg #BrachyrSystem

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

Boop, small drop; #BrachyrSystem #indiettrpg Soulbound! The book of familiars! Well, and a couple other things too...

Just plopped a new flash fiction on my writing desk if anyone's interested. "Forever home" Set in #BrachyrSystem as normal, just a little fic from the perspective of an ordinary cat in a magical world. #writesky #indiettrpg, all those normal tags idk xD I enjoyed writing it. Hope you enjoy reading!

And so my week of rest ends and I begin #BrachyrSystem dev anew. This next doc will be "Soulbind", about a ritual that creates familiars, dryad, liches, and all manner of other things. I'm having fun really digging into a niche bit of lore here #indierpg #ttrpg Are you working on any lore depth atm?

#writesky #selfpromo regarding passion writing. I write flash fictions for all my #BrachyrSystem stuff, just cos I like writing in that world. Writing for that world is why the ttrpg even exists. But because the books get paywalled; I can't be sure people can read them. So all the fics go here too.

#BrachyrSystem new release! The brain refuses to stop or slow; like that of the avianosi. The first species book, expanding all about one of the playable species. Giving lore, gear, monsters, and spells. Learn about the history and modern culture of the obsessive birds #ttrpg #indierpg #selfpromo

People who complain that student debt shouldn't be forgiven because they had to pay their own off, would complain that new people shouldn't be recruited to the Arcane University in #TheElderScrolls #Oblivion after the Bruma sanctuary gets destroyed because you had to get a recommendation from there.

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 17/04/2026

I do love getting lost in the #ttrpg dev sauce and waking up 3 hours later with about 5 pages of lore dump. Always good fun. I hope at least one person out there actually enjoys the content. But if not; I must create anyway. The brain won't let me not! #BrachyrSystem #indiettrpg #noai

On the recent hogwarts topic; My dumb ass, for the longest time, thought "TERF" meant "Trans Exterminating Radical Fascist" Good to know I remain correct apparently.

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

My favourite gamedev joke about #BrachyrSystem is; whenever I list the playable species to people. I'll say name, -folk, and sometimes what typical fantasy species they're closest to. But humans? Humans, Humanfolk, this world's version of humans... Dumb but never gets old #worldbuilding #dumbjoke

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

I'd love to make a minecraft mod that brings one of #BrachyrSystem 's divine realms, into minecraft as a dimension. But as much as I love the idea, I know I lack the skill to do it and the capacity to keep myself focused on trying. All the love to those out there making #minecraft mods

011

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 21/03/2026

#BrachyrSystem new release! Because I can't let myself stop or the brain will instantly gather 40 years of moss. BOWS! The newest Brachyr combat skill. Covering traditional, composite, and even crossbows. #ttrpg #indierpg #selfpromosaturday

My #BrachyrSystem play group just had their first run in with someone of lower proficiency in their only language. A bunch of people talking all at once, thankful to be understood. Only for one PC to pipe up "they're probably horribly overwhelmed, one at a time!" #ttrpg #indierpg

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 17/03/2026

I love, as a #ttrpg designer, statting up potential NPCs and getting that giddy player-state. You know the one, where you find a neat combo you hadn't considered and it sparks all kinds of ideas. The stuff theorycrafters hunt. It's nice to stumble on it in your own work.

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 17/03/2026

One of my work games has a hyper adaptive, thief-hunter villain who's entire goal is to destroy a thieves guild that all the PCs are part of. He's learning their tricks, and is extremely difficult to pin down/catch off guard. He also happens to be a massive entophobe. #paidDM #ttrpg

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 16/03/2026

Bringing this back up; If your group is interested in helping playtest this, please DM me! #ttrpg #indierpg #playtesting

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 16/03/2026

The #BrachyrSystem focuses on small stories and arcs, it's half of how you 'level up'; time played/arcs completed. Every adventure so far has been a standalone. If I were to make and publish a major campaign ala RotR, it'd be reclaiming a dead city and bringing it to the new #clockpunk age. #ttrpg

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 13/03/2026

my #eternalttrpgjam entry this month fits every prompt so far this year; Little Gods, Zine's, and Public Domain. A "horror" roleplay scenario where 3-4 players explore a small story, guided by two booklets keeping secrets from them. Loosely based on Peter Pan theming! #ttrpg #gamedev

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 13/03/2026

I'd absolutely reach out about #BrachyrSystem stuff, but given I can't pay; I signal boost instead! There's some seriously awesome art here that'd work for map-less discussion scenes on vtts, setting the mood at your table, or maybe ttrpg ADs. top notch stuff and all the best to him(?)

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 11/03/2026

#BrachyrSystem Welcome to Nasvene! Medieval Stasis has been cracked. The workshop vault of a lost inventor has been unearthed, releasing the Age of Gears. Clockwork technology is spreading rapidly. You're either deep in, resisting, or on the horizon. Clockworks are coming, magitech is changing.

If anyone has any TTRPG gigs or projects that need a host/DM/Storyteller, please let me know. The person who had been giving me work before has been weasling their way out of paying me. I hate to ask you to repost, but if you could help me get word out, that would be really kind. ^^' #DM #Furry

Unhinged ttrpg rant; People trying to build existing fictional characters in any given ttrpg are the same cinderella's step sisters trying on the glass slipper.

It's that time again! #ttrpg #indierpg #SelfPromo A new #BrachyrSystem supplement! In this weird age where artists are put down, I wanted to do just a little by highlighting the artistic expression of characters IN Nasvene.

While I wait to be able to release the next #BrachyrSystem doc. I just wanted to say; the flash fic for the book is up on my writing desk! Title is "Masterwork" and it's my first attempt at a #clockpunk specific fiction set in Nasvene. #indiettrpg #writesky #selfpromo

I love writing the sort of stuff that makes me want to look in a mirror and ask "what the fuck is feasting on my brain?" More than once something has been cut from #BrachyrSystem for being *too dark* for test audiences. Oh well #ttrpg #indierpg

010

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

You know the #ttrpg is made by an aussie when; - It has exploding eucalyptus forests - Snake poison is the most terrifying encounter regardless level - Funnelweb spiders don't get statblocks, just trap triggers - Distances are metric - Individuality and Cooperation are of equal import #BrachyrSystem

020

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

I want to do a special #ttrpg adventure for this months #eternalttrpgjam (Public Domain), based on #PeterPan. But I want to do this right from the symbolism perspective. Anyone over on #booksky nerdy enough and willing to help me out?

230

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 23/02/2026

So, how many other #indiettrpg devs out there get that spike of anxiety whenever anyone mentions reading or playing your game? I put it out there, sure I like it, sure I think YOU'LL like it But someone reading it?!

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 17/02/2026

Yes! #BrachyrSystem has a sleu of divine and nigh-divine artefacts called Legendary items. Ranging from pieces of gods, to jokes a god found impressive, to the work of amazing engineers and artists. There's even a free supplement introducing the base rules for them. My first quote post of a Kiki Q!

Werewolf movie but when the werewolf turns, reality becomes claymation. Everyone is aware of this, but no-one knows why it happens. You just hope you're coherent enough to be human again when everything shifts back.

If you want to make bean soup, make bean soup. Don't go looking for a burrito recipe, and don't listen to every single input. Don't be a dingo and end up making wombat stew. Make what you want, for those who want it. #gamedev

Since it's a topic in the space at the moment apparently. My 3 ingredients for a good franchise tied #ttrpg: 1) Veteran rpg designers: So it makes sense 2) Original franchise creators: So it fits vision and lore 3) Diehard fans: So it keeps to theme and community Money, and corpo's aren't needed

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 06/02/2026

One of the skills in the #BrachyrSystem is "Artistry". I'm not an artist; If I want information on those people; how they build their skills and do their thing. I ask them. So I'm putting out feelers for any artists who would be willing to be little research pincushion. #indierpg #ttrpg #noai

It's that time again! #ttrpg #indierpg #SelfPromo A new #BrachyrSystem supplement! Back to combat with the Daggers expansion! All manner of daggers and dagger use; flashy, subtle, and more utility. This is the last Brachyr Doc before I focus on Clockpunk stuff for the year, enjoy!

#BrachyrSystem #ttrpg has reasonings for each rule, an explanation why it's that way, so you know the consequences of houserules that break those design intents. Today I'm releasing Legendary Items, an example of breaking one of those rules! #indierpg

My current minecraft hyperfixation has apparently seeded the thought of making mods that are the various #BrachyrSystem elemental planes or divine realms, as MC dimensions. I hate my brain sometimes.

I want to make a promo vid for #BrachyrSystem But I legit have no idea what to do xD Low-art doesn't really help #indierpg #ttrpg

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

Hey folks! For this year I'm hoping to focus a little more on my clearly favourite genre; Clockpunk. I already have some #BrachyrSystem stuff planned before I start leaning into that, but once they're out of the way; in we dive. All the best to everyone! Take the year one tick at a time

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 22/12/2025

Is it too deep in the rabbithole to have #conlang 's that exist almost exclusively to help generate consistent nouns for my #ttrpg? I know it's #worldbuilding but how far is too far xD

Atlas @brachyrgames-atlas.bsky.social · 18/12/2025

Played Cards Against Humanity with some friends the other night and jokingly set a card aside when dealing hands as "for the queen"; a joke reference to the goddess Kutari from #BrachyrSystem We played her card during the final black. What was it? "The awesome power of the lord!" Too perfect

question for #indierpg devs If I want to bundle up my #ttrpg stuff to sell at some kind of discount. Is there a normal discount % or a normal sale value you find sells well? No-one buys #BrachyrSystem and I'm thinking of bundling everything together for the christmas period!
