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!

This is not a game for me, but I nonetheless have been enjoying your running impression of Nighthawks. It’s nice to see your opinions being shaped over time as you play. Very different from singular reviews that often amount to “game good/bad.” Keep it up! And I’m glad you’re enjoying it!

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!

I backed the crowdfunding campaign for the new edition; MCG released the pdfs of the GM’s Guide and Bestiary to backers already. They haven’t released the hardcopies to backers yet. I think they’re still waiting for the physical books to arrive. The public release for those books is in October.

Jeffrey Gerretse @gerretse.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
Yeah, with the new edition they’re releasing three core rulebooks: the Cypher Character Rulebook, the Cypher GM’s Guide, and the Cypher Bestiary. I think they did this to keep things slim and approachable. Players, for example, only need the CCR, which isn’t weighed down with GM info and monsters.

Jeffrey Gerretse @gerretse.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
I believe the attack will tell you the wound it inflicts on a hit. For example, see this snippet of the chimera description from the upcoming GM’s Guide. There’s an entry saying what wound the chimera inflicts on a hit (a moderate wound).

I am amazed at what people can create. I love that people push forward, creating more through our medium. Something with more character, or more action, or more scale. People are amazing in what they can create together. No shade to the old games. I love them. I also love that people try more.

I watched the trailer with my wife. I was a little teary after. Not because of gta 6 per se. I pulled up a screenshot of gta 1 and explained how this is the game I played in the 90s, connected with a single serial cable to my friend’s pc, which he lugged over to my house so we could play together.

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?

Whaaaaaat… I’d never heard of Valiant Vision before, but I just looked it up. That’s wild! I would have thought that was the coolest thing as a kid. 3D effect with what otherwise looks like *normal comics*?? I wish I’d known about this at the time. I totally would have tried the glasses with this.
