HUNT(er/ed) has been nominated for the CRIT Award for Best GMless Game and I am feeling excited and so so grateful. Thank you all for loving this game as much as @superdillin.bsky.social and I do.
If anyone who wrote about tabletop for Polygon has a pitch, reach out to Rascal. We'll make something happen with the budget we have.
So thrilled to see the story of the insane clown possum come to an end
Me and @vidityavoleti.bsky.social played Deify, a solo game by @allyrda.bsky.social on One Shot recently. We played it within the world of Motif, that we built in a previous series with @aaroncatanosaez.bsky.social and @jeffstormer.gobirds.online playing A Land Once Magic. games are good 🥰

Starting this week on One Shot!!! @vidityavoleti.bsky.social has never played a Solo RPG - so I held his hand and we played Deify, by @allyrda.bsky.social together. We played within the existing world we built playing A Land Once Magic just a few weeks ago, following the life of a God of Endurance
We duo a solo!! Deify was a beautiful game, both visually and the writingn I really love gods and devotion and religion and shit so you'll hear me having a great time! Thanks Dillin!! Also so cool to revisit a world made in ALOM! Real proof that game chains into others so so well

I truly had a fifteen minute meltdown when I found out about this. If you've been curious about Deify and want to see someone else play it, check out One Shot this week and next!

If people haven't heard of this deity-creating solo game I'm clearly not doing my job well enough. Deify is BEAUTIFUL, both as a game and because of all the stunning artwork by Maia Trewartha
Craig PLEASE check out Deify by @allyrda.bsky.social it is also a beautiful hardcover solo game

Some incredible reporting here about the true state of devastation these tariffs are going to cause
I spoke with nearly two dozen creatives and publishers in the tabletop industry today. It's bad. It's real bad.
I just finished a first draft of a novel. What the fuck.
Like solo roleplaying game but prefer digital copies? Great news! Deify is now available in Ebook form www.amazon.com/Deify-Mythic...

I am so in awe of the design of Deify. If nothing else, it’s an absolute work of art
It seems the TTRPG bsky is discovering Deify now. Such a beautiful project I had the honor of designing. My love history with Dover Publishing is an old one. Buy the book, you won't repent, I promise.
The universe heard me say “everything will be fine” before going rollerskating and decided that having someone completely take me out was an appropriate punishment
We love to see two pretty best friends winning @ameliasom.bsky.social @whipjack.bsky.social @gusrachels.bsky.social
