I really enjoyed this episode for a few reasons. Most of all, I love how Barclay and Bee (1) read / discuss specific endnotes and (2) puzzle out the plot together. Playing solo games. Reading. These are social activities. It's what I dreamed of: multiple playthroughs, discussing with friends. ❤️

hello! it is once again the off-season for my job, and as such, i am in need of some additional income. i've updated my ko-fi shop (ko-fi.com/barcstravis) with most of my games, and added some cheap commission slots. & you can see more examples of my work at barcstravis.com!

I found this weird button on my bag this morning. It looks like the kind of thing you'd get from a vintage political campaign, but it doesn't have any sort of political messaging or anything. Do you want it? itch.io/jam/58mmrpgj...

Please Save Me by sage tomorrow, today for 58mm RPG Jam

A normal vintage political campaign button.

It's so easy not to play the eugenics game published by the AI booster that partners with the biggest anti-trans freak on the planet.

Man, thankfully no one is playing or making stuff for this bad game run a billion dollar company that's putting AI into everything! www.geeknative.com/225567/hasbr...

SEVEN-PART PACT, my fantastical ornate TTRPG about powerful wizards, asymmetrical board games, and the pressures of masculinity is now launching on kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/sjg...

Seven-Part Pact

A fantastical, ornate TTRPG from Possum Creek about the might and folly of powerful wizards bound by a venerable Pact.

finally playing spine. i am being killed to death

the seven-part pact kickstarter launches TOMORROW! here's the Arcane Edition (mockup, images not final) ! it features a faux leather bound grimoire, hardcover codices, a plastic pull tab on the box, and beautiful art by @teanwitch.bsky.social

good evening. “bee caring about futbol” was a 30-day social experiment conducted by Bee Alexander Productions. the experiment has now concluded.

i'll smack the fuck outta tony soprano

one of the most exciting parts of the seven-part pact release for me is the highest tier, which will (amongst all the other gubbins available for the campaign) feature a very special object ... a hand-illuminated, hand-painted limited print of the Orrery done by jennifer dragon, my real-life mom
