NEW FOR SOLO SEPT: We Shall Be Monsters by @smolghost.bsky.social ⚡️ An introspective, dark fantasy solo journaling RPG in which a brilliant (but lonely) scientist attempts to build their ideal mate. From scratch. Y’know, from uhh... parts, like that other brilliant (but lonely) scientist once did

The cover of We Shall Be Monsters by Pines (Seb Pines). The background is dark and the title is in a bold white calligraphic font

An interior example from We Shall Be Monsters. The lefthand page is titled The Experiment and details how the Vitality system works with the trait circuits. The righthand page is titled The Creation and includes a Mary Shelley quote, a description of the player's next steps, and a graphic novel-style shoulders-up illustration of a purple-haired, purple-lipped, green-skinned woman, stitches across her neck, eyes closed peacefully

Canadians, if it helps, there's a form on the page where all you have to do is fill in your name, email, postal code, etc and it'll be sent to your local MPP. It's incredibly important that you speak up on this matter because this is a road we do not want to go down.

Two of my games are up for consideration for the inaugural Canada Roles Awards! If you are Canadian you can vote for Underneath for Best One Shot and Short Form Game and We Shall Be Monsters for Best Visual Design! Voting closes May 15th! canadaroles.ca/doku.php?id=...

A promo image showing the zine for Underneath, the text under it reads "Seb Pines, Underneath, Best One Shot and Short Form Game". The image of the zine shows: The cover of a black and white zine on a green textured paper background. In the background are carabiners, a headlamp, a journal, rope, and a map. The cover of the zine has the title Underneath and a large etching style illustration of a narrow cave chamber. A natural fountain springs up from the rock floor. Statues of dragons and lions and weird dogs all spit water across the chamber into each other's mouths intersecting with the single stream of water erupting from the natural fountain.

A promo image showing the zine for We Shall Be Monsters, the text under it reads "Seb Pines, We Shall Be Monsters, Best Visual Design". The image of the zine shows: The cover of the game zine We Shall Be Monsters. The title is in an embellished black letter font in white over a black background with a low contrast image of a doctor standing over a dead body on a slab. The zine is displayed on textured paper with a silk handkerchief and a small saw next to it.
