I realize there may not be a bunch of overlap between the sword & sorcery fiction crowd and the obscure 1970s space game crowd, but I am literally the overlap. Launching on Backerkit tomorrow if you're interested in supporting!

Definitely Numenera and the Cypher System. But Ironsworn and Starforged are right there at the top, too.

Last night I ran a session 0 for my upcoming Cypher 2e ttrpg campaign. We decided some core themes and then collaborated on the world together. We took two sentences from the intro of the starter adventure, and from there spun a history, a church, and a dark conspiracy. It’s gonna be fun!

Working on a TTRPG designed specifically for actual play. The mechanics are rules light and fiction first. The real focus is everything around play: pacing, scenes, spotlight, audio clarity, GM/player guidance, and producing good episodes without sacrificing a good game. What'd YOU want to see?

My buddies and I are gonna play the #Cypher 2e TTRPG for the first time soon! To keep our first foray simple, I’m gonna run “Creeping Ooze,” the fantasy adventure from the original Cypher System Starter Set. It’s got exploration and combat—perfect for trying out some dungeon fantasy.

In the next month or so, we’re going to kick off a Cypher 2e TTRPG campaign to put the refreshed system through its paces. Traditional dungeon fantasy, where a lot of our past experience lies as players. How will Cypher stack up against old comforts? I’m excited as hell to find out! 😃

Last night my buddies and I decided to pause our ongoing Numenera TTRPG campaign. We’re at a good break point between adventures. Maybe we’ll wait till next year and convert the PCs to the next iteration of Numenera… We’ve had a great time! We visited old ruins, a spacestation, and the datasphere!
