I've got a thing in this bundle! Go grab the bundle to get a bunch of neat games and my Against Our Better Angels adjacent art book ๐Ÿ“š

Final week for the TTRPG Collective bundle! This is a great group of folks who gathered up a very cool set of games (and a comic!) covering such a wide variety of forms and themes. It's absolutely worth checking out what a community can support. itch.io/b/3934/ttrpg...

Hey, we did it! We hit our current goal for our awesome bundle. Thanks to everyone who's checked it out! Let's keep this train going and hit our next goal. There's still 18 days left to grab this collection of cool #TTRPG games if you haven't. Ok, bye! itch.io/b/3934/ttrpg...

For #FollowFriday (is that still a thing?), it would be super awesome if you went to this bundle page, opened contributor's profiles, and gave them follows. If you get the bundle too, that'd be amazing, but putting indie creators on your radar is so immensely helpful. #ttrpg itch.io/b/3934/ttrpg...

I've made my first patreon post, a 5e monster I've had in my pocket for a long time: the nesting dollems. Read about this new ceramic construct and join the Patreon to get a pdf download of its full stats. #ttrpg #dnd

Been getting hit with a lot of bills recently so I've opened a patreon. If you want to support me unconditionally, there's a tier for that. I'll aim to put out one small ttrpg thing each month, think along the lines of a monster, item or NPC, for $3 a month. www.patreon.com/c/KellyWhyte

Some amazing little finds in this bundle. So far, my group have played as slimes, dragon spirits and dinosaur zoo keepers and thereโ€™s still another 45 to try! So proud of the #TTRPG Collective Community for putting this together. itch.io/b/3934/ttrpg...

Check this one out gang! The TTRPG collective are a very welcoming bunch. Theyโ€™ve been so lovely to talk to, shared great tips, as well as prompts that have gotten me rethinking my writing and design habits, and just are wonderful folks all around. Iโ€™ve even got my own lil 1-pager in there!

I plan to have a playtest copy for my upcoming solo game The Crown and The Crow in this! I've been picking away at it for a long while and I'm very excited. You play as a line of 13 rulers of a nation, forward and back through time, leaving legacies both amazing and terrible. Also there's a crow.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Looking for @itch.io charity bundle advice. I've sent a few emails and discord messages since May to get the bundle set up. I might have the charity account add a dummy project so I can finish it myself. The only response I've gotten is to not do that, though. Anyone else with charity bundle exp.?

This is very funny to me because my 3yo loves Catboy but I definitely would not consider it a children's book recommendation. Anyway, buy Catboy!
