While working on my #ECOMOFOS project, I have once again been distracted by trinkets in the undergrowth. By trinkets, I mean game jams. I've just released Domes of the Deluged Chasm, a system agnostic card-crawler for the Appx. N Game Jam 2026, have a gander! headless-press.itch.io/domes-of-the...

Not really sure if that is a viable strategy in this day and age, but I am of a mind to wing it and see how it goes... #ttrpg #writing #blogging

Amongst many other things in the pipeline, I've been considering setting up a blog somewhere; the 'plan' is that it would basically be a mix of game design, developer logs, but also most other random thoughts or topics that interest or also inform my creativity, regardless of subject.

Happy to! It is the same one we discussed before, but I went down some anarchy, folklore and animist rabbit holes which are gonna hopefully strengthen the narrative through-line of the thing 🤞

Hey all! I took a short break after releasing Skin Crawl (physical version in the works!) I've got a few things to catch up on, namely a game about dream demons and an adventure for #ecomofos under the working title Inheritance of Pain! I'm looking forward to getting back in the groove! #ttrpg

I am currently working on two very different projects: one is an adventure for #ECOMOFOS, and the other is a collaborative narrative game that was going to be for #PocketQuest2025 but rapidly crept in scope (as I crept further into the purgatory of ideating random tables 😆).

Gah, this is frustrating. I enjoy Runequest and Pendragon a lot, too. Luckily, I've got some of the older (RQ3, the weird games-workshop era) books I can fall back on, but this trajectory is a shame nonetheless.

What a surreal but gratifying experience. Writing a game for a gallery installation isn't something I ever imagined I'd do and watching people play and engage with it was incredible. Huge thanks to @davidblandyrpgs.bsky.social and the team behind Weird Hope Engines for inviting me to be part of it.
A photo of crowds gathered in a gallery A gallery installation that looks like a cubicle in an office. Posters on the wall read "The Record Is The Truth and The Truth Is The Record" and "Building Better History!". Beneath them is a desk holding an electric typewriter and a binder filled with paper.A group of women gathered around a desk typing on an electric typewriter.A sheet of typed text. It reads:

If now is not
The moment, when will it be
I have been keeping pieces of myself
My innermost self - inside a jar
Just some fishnets that I deemed surplus
Deemed by the deemers, you understand?
And so long as I KEEP THIS JAR (do you hear? do you speak?)
I WILL KEEP DOING IT
I cannot be stopped
Not by you, or you, or you
Until I run out of jars,
Or run out of me
Yours

Clients should go into a commission with an idea of what work and what type/quantity of work is needed for each piece of art. And if they don't, artists should be ready to get some specific demands in written form so they have some backup/ammo if conversations are had.
