I’ve just spent the last two months prepping a megagame. Its a live text discord RPG set on a space station full of factional intrigue and desperate people, incorporating all the lessons we've learned since the time we all did that last October. Enjoy! thegardenbelow.blot.im/apa-1/so-im-...

"These Games Are Not For Sale" is a little project @tonytran.bsky.social and I have been cooking up. It's a festival celebrating game design for the sake of it; games that can't or won't be commercialized. Please give this account a follow if you're with us:

Hey so I haven’t really talked about it much but I finally started a new job! I’ll be running a tabletop game store called Play Play Asia at GMBB KL (GM1-13 on level 1) We focus exclusively on Asian tabletop games, including TTRPGs! More details as we get closer to opening.

Learning games as we set up the store - Overparked was a really fun puzzle, 108 Outlaws is exactly my kind of card combo bullshit, Buffet Boss is always cute, and Cooking Noodles is a nice thematic puzzle card game with gorgeous art.

In-progress game of Overparked.

This upcoming Friday I will be hosting a LTRP based around every player being a knight competing in duels and jousts, lasts for a week. This will feature some new ideas I had inspired by MUDs (travel, description, inspect commands). If anyone is interested in joining just let me know!

--= User Commands =-- /join: This lets you play the game! It creates your character and makes your personal channel. You can even set a /description here early! Example /join A noble lady with kind face and flowing brown hair. She wears a forest green dress covered in golden flower embroidery. /status: This shows your current player status. How you check your crowns, title, age, ect. /description: With this command you can set the description that others will see when you arrive or when inspected. Example, /description A noble lady with kind face and flowing brown hair. She wears a forest green dress covered in golden flower embroidery. /inspect: Inspect how a player looks in your location. This will show you their description and a rough guess on age. /work: How you earn your crowns. Shows others publicly how your character has worked for the day to earn a wage. The more details the more crown. Example, /work standing guard for a troop of merchants who were loading up supplies from their guild house /pay: Owe someone some crown? You can use this to pay it out. /horse: Travel taking too long and you have the crown? Buy your own steed to name. Reduce that travel time in half. /join_guild: Interesting in signing up for a guild? Do you wish to show support? This is how. /renounce_guild: Decided the life of a guildmember is too much? You can quit anytime, as long as it's public. /travel: Sick of standing around in the same place? Travel elsewhere! /arrive: Did you travel and miss the arrival button? You can use this command instead. /roll: Rolls up to twenty d6, publicly. You were all born in the lands Kallisto, during the time known as the age of prosper. The time period is roughly the same as what you would expect from a medieval low fantasy book, leaning towards the late middle ages. The king of these lands has decided to put on a contest. Two new generals are needed as the king themselves plans for a war. Those with the highest amount of duel wins and joust wins will be dubbed Baron/Baroness and join the king to battle. That is not all though, the one who can amass the greatest amount of wealth will too earn the title of Baron/Baroness and join the King's staff as a treasurer. There are three active guilds in the lands, one in each city. Ironcliff houses the Order of the Flowering Knights. A group whose goal is to defend the weak and do right by others. In Stagcross you will find the Guild of the Golden Leaf Trading Company. Traders and merchants who prefer the use of crown over steel. And Pinedale hosts the Brotherhood of the Hearth. Those who still worship the old rites.

I'm in the process of writing my love letter to fighting games, so I booted up Ultra Street Fighter IV for the first time in 10 years. Training mode. El Fuerte. I tried an old combo I hadn't been able to hit all those years ago: run stop fierce. Today, I could finally see the path to the summit.

As someone who does the vast majority of her roleplaying by PBP these days, this blog post really hit for me. raines.bearblog.dev/discord-tool... Discord is *so good* for RPGs, especially once the RPG is flexed a little to account for the restrictions of the format.

I am chronically ill, and I speak by writing. That's hyperbole, but not by much. I'm capable of speaking——sometimes I even do it——but the number of people...
