If you are heading PAXAUS next weekend, DM me for a free Kresnik|Kudlak zine. In an alternate time at the end of the history, the colder it gets the more haunted the world becomes. Play as supernatural Kresnik in this apocalyptic supernatural dramatic thriller ttrpg. #paxaus #ttrpg
A red and yellow zines lay upon other play materials. The zines read "Kresnik Kudlak: those whose souls leave".

Limiting a #ttrpg game to a finite number of sessions then moving on to something new is as viable as playing the same system / campaign over multiple years.

My uncultured opinion for you: Both 4 & 5 stars have alignment issues. Maybe the outer stars should be justified to the edge letter edges? My mind keeps looking for associations that aren't there between the stars to the letters to the edges. So 3, but the others can be made much better.

Yes. I was thinking of this phrase the other day as a thought piece - "there are so many child corpses buried at Hogwarts" but we can replace that last word with "the Wonka factory".

Hey!! That might as well have been me who wrote that!! That person is so right - that's exactly what I would have said. You are amazing and I love what you did for my game and so many others.

Trollhunter was great but I think it's vanished from the Australian streaming services :( I've had Errementari saved for a while and need to watch it now, thanks!

Yeah this is a trap and a really bad one. It'll only inflate prices further anyway (see: homebuyer grants). The current government has made changes that are showing a reduction in prices already - why are they fighting against that? Hint: it's not about the voters!!

Not to give too much away, but one of my favorite bits we designed for Arium: Evolve are the asymmetrical relationships that naturally grow from questions asked from character to character. While many games have a pick list style bond question, we took an Arium bent. Check out our Kickstarter! 🔗⬇️

‘Making up games is more important than you think’: why Bluey is a font of parenting wisdom
Children’s show Bluey is not just a gem of Australian art - its messages are also remarkably consistent with scientific literature on parenting.

Great thread. I've just reordered my book shelf and found some old EU books that I love. I think there were some hints at similar things in some of them? Maybe the corellian system etc? The system was "manufactured" in the past by moving stars and planets?

Tomorrow I'll be at Netherworld Creator Markets in #brisbane #australia showcasing my YMTD #ttrpg #storygame with a few other amazing local tabletop creators! So excited to share this game with the world some more :) Come give it a try! www.netherworldarcade.com/event/nether...

THIS IS NOT AN AI IMAGE. IT WAS MADE BY A REAL ARTIST. 
I am fairly sure this is another by the amazing https://nelsongibbins.com/ The cover art for my game You'll Meet the Devil at a Crossroads (YMTD for short!) with art by the amazing Juan Ochoa!

It depicts the three 'fates' (one holding scissors) looking off to the middle distance as if judging the soul of some unfortunate...

Oh hey mate, I'll see you there again - this time I'll be there as a seller too! Last time I did get myself a copy of EGADS, it's very nice 💜💜💜

You have to play in a separate room from the boardgamers so that you don't have to continually explain sentences like "so technically we CAN feed the corpse to the horse" to people who overhear.

Thanks for having me today @qldgamesfestival.bsky.social I had a blast running my narrative #ttrpg "You'll Meet the Devil at a Crossroads". I had a full table from 9am to 5pm - sometimes with a queue! What a rush, such a thrill! It's love to come back again next year and do it all again!
The Queensland Games Festival big screen at the end when the awards were done. Me with my "exhibitor" pass at the start of the day. 
My table all set up to take players through demo games, which I did all day from about 9am to 5pm.

Builder voice: 'You got yourself a standard "doorway to the underworld" there fella. Don't make em like this any more'. *slaps house* 'Yep, I reckon this thing'll be with you till the day you die... maybe longer. Y'all haven't been walking here or sitting on it or anything like that, right?'

Had a great time running YMTD at TableTopCon on the Gold Coast today!! Very happy players 💜 My 10 year old played for the first time and ended up being a mutineer! Thanks to @long-tail-games.bsky.social for selling me these zine RPGs too 💜 one by @ehronlime.bsky.social and the other by Stoo Goff.
The RPG zines "The Gaslight Club" by Stoo Goff and "An Altogether Different River" by Aaron Lim. 

Sitting on my coffee table with a pair of custom dice from TableTopCon 2026. My table playing my storygame "You'll Meet the Devil at a Crossroads". 
5 players including my 10 year old. He ended up being the mutineer!The final card ("The Devil") is turned over... revealing that the mutineer is acting out of material possessions and wealth. 

So of course he initiated the mutiny over all the false promises of money he'd been making all game 🤣

Got this for my wife for Christmas. We've been playing a bit of it - heaps of fun and quite a challenge. It is billed as "every move you make is a trade off where you have to give something to your opponent" - no move is ever safe or easy. Both simple and complex and really good fun.
The box of the board game "The field of the cloth of gold". A bright yellow box with black text and a stylised dragon icon.The components of the board game "The field of the cloth of gold". Little cardboard squares and a game board. The box lid and components of the board game "The field of the cloth of gold".

@periaptgames.bsky.social and @hecticelectron.bsky.social look what I got in the post today thanks to your crowd funding efforts and PoD via DriveThruRPG. Thanks so much more making it easy to get print #ttrpg products in Australia by using PoD! I'm excited to read and play these!
The books "Overzealous" and "Wallace Winkles Tragedy Factory" with a copy of "Defy the Gods". All printed locally which greatly reduces the shipping costs.
