youtu.be/WRe_niuTb2c?... This was fun :)

A huge thanks to @jpcoovert.bsky.social for reviewing our new DnD book!! Check out his thoughts on a whole host of new DnD things coming out, including ours, The Forgotten God! youtu.be/nkjs6ccvHQ4?... p.s. only 48 hours left to back our campaign, link in bio!

I want to make a TTRPG that plays like Big Walk. Finished playing with some friends a couple weeks ago and haven't stopped thinking about it! Having a chill experience that asks you to find new ways to communicate is really cool and feels like it could be an amazing tabletop game somehow.

LOVE these monthly/daily prompt lists. The only one I ever finished had me drawing 31 NPCs for a home game that eventually became Dragon Town. Never know where taking a leap and trying an exercise for fun will take you!

Making a video about selling zines (not looking for a distro myself) and would like to include some good TTRPG zine distros like IPR. Any recommendations?

Just put in a big zine restock with Mixam and noticed that changing the quantity from 250 to 249 saved me between $60 and $80 depending on the page count of the zine. Only difference was it changed the printer from an Indigo 100k to an Indigo 7600. Wish they would explain the difference!

Somehow #Gaming4Everybody returned... with the reschedule of @thecandacemarie.bsky.social & @dotsrpg.org Star Borg by @jpcoovert.bsky.social. Crack open a Corellian Ale, grab your 1/4 portion and come through to twitch.tv/candacethemagnificent and help us raise money for DOTS RPG Project!

What's that, Ed Emberley Frog? You have something you want to say?

Zach has been crushing my latest video edits! If you need editing help, hit him up.

Great video about why AI isn't needed/wanted in TTRPGs.

Holy cow the Appendix N Jam is so cool! There are already 325 entries! That's 325 people figuring out how to design, write, illustrate, layout, and publish an adventure. Go look! itch.io/jam/appx-n-j...

Thanks for everyone who voted!

Unfortunately I’m unable to make it to Gen Con this weekend. Dragon Town and a bunch of drawing guides are at the CRWN Studios booth (2549) though!

Just put out my entry for the Appendix N Jam! I learned a lot on "how to" and especially "how not to" create a dungeon. I got to experiment with some ideas I've had for a while, and I can't wait to explore them even more! #ttrpg #osr #rpg #horror tales-from-the-unknown.itch.io/coral-overlord

We've entered the campaign's endgame. It wraps up in two days!

I stayed up too late drawing zombies.

What other printers has everyone used besides Mixam? Any recommendations for people looking to print zines?

A point from @explorersdesign.bsky.social's excellent newsletter, the Explorateur. This is definitely how I'm running my next Star Borg campaign!
