Some subtle (?) indie propaganda this week. A video about how smaller #TTRPG contain the secret to GMing big trad games without the pressure and workload of prep. This is a dastardly plan to show D&D players that other games exist and might even be good. youtu.be/o_avAU642Jg

A sneak peek at the 2026 Casino CoinSides samples. I can show you these because the designs have improved and the molds are being redone. Looking forward to sharing more as we get closer to crowdfunding. #dicespinners #coinsides #noveltydice #casinodice #dice #casino

Critical feedback is much appreciated. Shoot it down if you feel that way. No hard feelings. Is the text too dense to follow? Did I put too much in? Thank you in advance. I would be happy to add you to the growing list of testers, proofreaders, and advisors. Happy to return the favor.

Been working on ENI 2nd Ed for 2 months, daily editing, even at the pool. I think I have a good UNIVERSAL FRAMEWORK for role-playing games in 8k words. I've condensed it into an A4 page for the 1 Page RPG Jam on itch (kicking off soon). Can I PLEASE ask you to give this 1-Page a read?

After a solid month of daily editing, a LOT OF HELP from dozens of proofreaders, and a ton of inspiration from YouTube reviewers, game designers, other games, etc... The SECOND EDITION of ENI is being released! It has grown, it has improved, and it has yet to be tested! 1/3
