Crab Truckers is the creation of my friend Myles - he has never had a website, so I helped him type it up and made it available via my site. There are a load of actual plays online, which is kind of wild. He should put it on itch. I will pester him about that.

Research news 🪐🔭 Astronomers have previously said our Sun may have swallowed a super-Earth-sized planet early in its history. But a new study has gone a step further by suggesting that such an event may have left behind detectable clues inside our star which could still be visible today. 🔍️☀️ ⤵️

The work of @malcolmcraig.bsky.social is perhaps useful here - he has views, published before and after 2023, and combines games and factual history. (I said all I had to say in 2008 with 3:16 and cannot comment any further.) But maybe Lo! Thy Dread Empire by @floaker.bsky.social suits your needs?

What's this? Moi? Winning the Banquo Award? I was so surprised and honoured to receive this award that it took nearly all my willpower to not bawl like a baby on stage. Thank you @conpulsion.bsky.social @gregorhutton.bsky.social and everyone who has supported me in this journey <3 www.banquo.scot

The BANQUO AWARD recognises those who have encapsulated the "spirit of Scottish Gaming." It is usually awarded at Conpulsion, Edinburgh University's role-playing games convention run by GEAS. The trophy handed to the recipient is a quaich, a Scottish shallow two-handled drinking cup.

Hello Stranger, Re-introduction time! I'm Epidiah Ravachol. Perhaps you've heard of my #ttrpg work, like Dread, the horror game that uses Jenga; or Swords Without Master, the one with the tones.† I've been at this indie truly-true role-playing game publishing gig for roughly a quarter century.

That’s so spooky. We’re taking a break from D&D and so I’ll be running Shadowrun for the x weeks were on the break. I’m trying to dust off my memories of it! Hope the metahuman future sparks excitement. Sending hope!

Excellent to see this actual play of #FiveEvil with @fromthemorgue.bsky.social and players. Worth checking out on Kickstarter.

Just recorded a #FiveEvil actual play with wonderful special guests. I was nervous! How ridiculous. Of course it went great. But showing your own work is always a bit 🫣 The players were fantastic. The big problem of role-playing games is that I just want to play more with everyone!!

Traverser love from me too. Played it twice in Sweden at this year’s The Happening. It’s sublime.

Seeing some 5e chat in #TTRPG spaces. My 2c: D&D 5e has deliberate gaps and ambiguities so it can drift with the table. It's clever. Those soft boundaries mean there's little urgency to explore other games; #FiveEvil aims to lead a 5e table somewhere new. www.kickstarter.com/projects/jon...

I’m a fan of 5E - I play in two long-running campaigns right now - and if you’re also a fan of 5E and you like horror games then you should check it out. #fiveevil

Top class art and not just cliched takes on classic monsters. And, given the note on the Kickstarter about Scott’s health, this really is looking like it’s the crowning project of his career. I salute you, Scott! #fiveevil

This is well worth a read. It's a compilation of five freebie teasers for the horror rpg Handiwork Games will soon be launching. It is indeed an actual horror game built on top of 5e.

I’m loving Bluesky. I think the way I work, on loads of different kinds of things, doesn’t sit well on algo-driven platforms. While like most creators I have a complex relationship with my own work, I know I’m ok at art. But other places really made me wonder. I’m not distracted by that here. xox

An illustration of a ruined tower, worn down almost to its base, sitting above a beach. It is a night scene, but the sand is quite bright in appearance. A set of steps winds up from the beach to the tower ruin. A small doorway in the tower glows with what might be firelight.
