Writers, just tell your story. Don't worry if it's checking every box on some standard model of a perfect plot or hitting every point of the story diamond (please!). Write the story you want to tell the way you want to tell it. Use your own voice and your own words. It's your story!

I’ve said this before, but artists, if you’re open for work you need to have your contact details and website pinned on your profile somewhere!!! If I can’t take a job I will always try and recommend other artists but you’re making this difficult!!

Pelasimme melankolista kauhua tarjoavaa QUIETUS-roolipeliä. Tarinassa ei-identtiset kaksoset Niina ja Max kohtasivat menneisyyden haamuja talvisessa leirikeskuksessa ja maksoivat nuoruusvuosiensa synneistä karvaasti. Upea pelikokemus! Kiitos @silliet.bsky.social & PJ @strangeworlder.bsky.social! 🍂🏚️🔦
Kuvassa on pelikerralla käytetty sähköinen hahmolomake, mikä sisältää QUIETUS-roolipelin käyttämät pelimekaaniikat, mittarit ja arvot. Lisäksi, lomakkeeseen on täytetty tiedot Niina ja Max Kantolasta, jotka ovat ei-identtisiä kaksosia. Kummallakin hahmoista oli pelikerran päättyessä peliarvoina sekä Anxiety 10, eli korkein mahdollinen (mikä aiheuttaa hahmolle pakokauhun), että Despair 5, mikä sekin on kaikkein korkein (aiheuttaa hahmon menehtymisen). 

Lisäksi, lomakkeella on nähtävillä myös arvot Hope 4 (missä 5 olisi mahdollistanut hahmojen selviämisen, pakenemisen ja kauhun kukistamisen) ja Dread 3 (mikä on pelaajien hahmojen toimista kertyvä ja pelinjohtajan käyttämä valuutta hahmojen etenemisen hidastamiseen ja haasteiden lisäämiseksi).

Löydät lisätietoja QUIETUS-roolipelistä osoitteesta: https://sinisterbeard.itch.io/quietusKuvassa on QUIETUS-roolipelin mainoskuva, missä piirroksen etualalla on kolme kasvokuvaa kolmiomaisessa muodostelmassa, ja missä taustalla on koskemattoman lumen keskeltä nouseva harjakattoinen rakennus tummien puunrunkojen reunustamana. Kansikuvan otsikkotekstinä on: "QUIETUS" ja sen alaotsikkona on: "A roleplaying game of melancholy horror". Lisäksi, kuvassa on roolipelin julkaisija Sinister Beard Gamesin logo ja siinä käytetystä sääntöjärjestelmästä kertova Forged in the Dark -tunnus.

No less than 60 million stars in one image. It's possible thanks to ESA's Euclid mission. For just one day, Euclid turned its gaze to the crowded heart of the Milky Way and captured the largest, most detailed photo ever taken of our galaxy's centre in visible light. Let's dive deeper 👇 🔭 🧪 ☄️ 1/8
A dense field of tiny stars fills this square image taken by the European Space Agency’s Euclid space telescope. The lower and central areas are dominated by bright yellow and gold colours, forming a textured background similar to fine glitter or sand. Dark brown and black patches cut irregularly through the yellow regions, like ink stains or clouds of smoke. Toward the upper left, the colours shift to purple and reddish tones, blending gently into the surrounding star field. Small blue points of light are scattered across the image.

There are various cards placed on the top of the game's playmat all of which have been protected with transparent plastic sleeves. The topmost card is "The Choppa!", the objective that our group managed to achieve and with that win the game.

Last night we played Warhammer Quest: The Adventure Card Game with a group of 4 humans & 1 cat. The co-op game is set in Warhammer's Old World and offered a really fun experience! Our heroes completed the Tutorial & 1st quest of The Uneasy Alliance campaign. We are looking forward to play some more!
Various game components (cards of different sizes placed in transparent protective plastic sleeves, cardboard tokens, and dice) and a spread of the rulebook of Warhammer Quest: The Adventure Card Game placed on a table with Cautopates the house cat loafing on most of the Hero Cards and focusing his keen green eyes on the photographer. He was certainly the Most Valuable Player of the evening!

🤔 It must either have been a sentient volcano antagonist added to The Fall of Delta Green TTRPG or a missile's freshly awakened and therefore a bit naïve guidance system that the player characters adopted in a Jovian Chronicles TTRPG campaign.

A screen capture of the cover of Marathon video game that is to be launched on 5 MAR 2026, a little under one day from the present time. There's text on the right side of the cover that reads "Marathon has been preloaded", and "As soon as the game is available, you'll be able to start playing!" Under the text there's a button, which reads "DISMISS". At this moment I'll take that as a... well, let's make it a friendly suggestion, and will return to this game at a later date.
