Is there anything more Canadian than bilingual lumberjacks? Not likely! Really looking forward to this one 🪓

Incredible, mindblowing game. Dread is among my top 3 influences that taught me there are really no limits in game design.

I'm working on a very silly trio of trifold minigames about mimics and I don't know what to do with them! Once they're finished I'll put them on itch, but I think it would be really cool to bundle them and sell physical copies.

A funny thing that happens when listening to lots of audiobooks is you become a fan of specific audiobook narrators. I feel like we don't talk about this enough. I could listen to John Lee read the dictionary.

#factoftheDIO On September 21, 1984, Dio released "Mystery," the third single from The Last in Line. It's a fun, upbeat track, featuring one of Vivian Campbell's best guitar solos, and of course Dio's lyrics and vocals are true to form. #RonnieJamesDio #TheLastInLine youtu.be/yO6u_avs6hI?...

Reposting for the Friday crowd. A megadungeon is a series of minidungeons. This is one such minidungeon. It's a cool one, I think. Connect it to your dungeons to make them bigger. Plus, you get to see how shitty my handdrawn maps are! (How simple they need to be for your players, I mean.)

I'm trying to conceptualize what a quickstart might look like for Stargazer Keep. Summarize the rules, provide some pregen characters, cut some of the deeper procedures... Feels like I'm missing something. Or maybe missing a lot? What do y'all think is essential for a quickstart?

A ttrpg / party game with procedures for getting drunk and high, to be played completely sober. You have skills like "gravity bong" and "butt chugging". Roll under or you pass out, puke, etc. Play to find out how fucked up you can get and then do a backflip off the roof without breaking your neck.

In my experience, Kobolds Ate my Baby by @9thlevelgames.bsky.social is the best "party game" style TTRPG. By that I mean something casual you can play with a larger group, that's easy to get to the table and teach new players. What TTRPG would you consider to be a party game?

My original pitch for Stargazer Keep was a 50+ story tower where each floor is a 5-room dungeon. We ended up workshopping that into the self-contained 20ish room segments we're releasing modularly, but I love to see these design discussions circulating!

I gave my son Magical Athlete for his 5th birthday and he's OBSESSED. If you aren't familiar, it's a basic roll & move game where you race around the board, but there are like 20-30 characters to play as and they all have game-breaking abilities that go crazy when they interact with one another.
