Just heard #PaxUnplugged is going full Human Made. Proud of em, it's my favorite gaming con. And it's nice to know they'd prefer to present the works of real creative human beings.

I was lucky enough to see a preview of this and was blown away. @gravy.press pulled some absolute magic out of the TTRPG ether.

Yesssssss!! So cool to be vending machine neighbors with @junkfoodgames.bsky.social !

More cool stuff from #BetweenTwoCons! Unworthy from @gomezwrites.bsky.social. I'm a sucker for a neat little package, and this looks great! He had a several cool looking games (my brother Nick picked up another one).

Chainmail Dungeon by @gomezwrites.bsky.social, postcard dungeons that you can fill out and send to your friends.

Just wrapped up production on 100 copies of Chainmail Dungeon, now available on my website! I hand-cut the bag toppers with a razor, so each one contains a little bit of my pain and suffering -- for FREE! I'll also have these at Between 2 Cons June 26-27! gomezwrites.com/product/chai...

Clayton's work on these is so generous. It's great to have a digest pointing out a ton of awesome TTRPG stuff I would have otherwise missed.

Just wrapped up a customizable random dungeon postcard to send to your bestie. Let ‘em know you’d rather be delving than sitting on that dumb, hot beach. gomezwritesgames.itch.io/chainmail-du...

New Unworthy mini-comics arrived! Excited to have these in time for C3 Game Con in Corvallis (April 11-12) and Between Two Cons in Portland (June 26-27)!

These are rad, and I could see someone making a really cool spark tool for solo RPGs with them. I dig how the cropping draws attention to specific elements of each painting, highlighting very specific emotions and color palettes. Cool stuff!

My One-Page RPG Jam entry, Unworthy, got a really nice shout-out during today's bonus episode of Between Two Cairns! It's a Patreon exclusive (totally worth it -- this podcast is one of the highlights of my week). www.patreon.com/posts/show-s...

I heard that this deck of cards would make a great holiday gift! My shipping partner* has told me that any orders can be dropped in mail pretty quickly! *me

It's already been a week since CRITcon, and I'm still buzzing from the experience. It was my first time tabling at an event, and I've been cherishing the feeling of being surrounded by a community that instantly felt like home. What a badass group of warm & welcoming people. 💖

Sick haul from CritCon this morning! Dope stuff for Mothership and Liminal Horror and Cairn!!! Got to meet @gomezwrites.bsky.social and @gravy.press, super cool folks! Also ran into @bradkerr.net Overall, good weekend!

#critcon day 2! Free entry and lots of fun TTRPGs, miniature wargames, painting classes, and more!
