Are self-professed indie outreach channels actually *scared* of featuring smaller titles? It's funny to me that y'all would rather cover Free League stuff, the Awards Darlings, etc. rather than actually paralleling our experience and facing the constant anxiety that comes with being unknown and...

Tell your friends making cool shit in the TTRPG space you're proud of them. You never know when your words can help make the call between persevering or giving up.

HOW TO RUN A TABLETOP GAME DESIGN WORKSHOP AT YOUR LIBRARY

For anyone who missed it John from @exeunt.press gave a wonderful webinar for the Indiana State Library. Here is the link to the recording from last week for any who missed this: youtu.be/Pg-kmNb0b5o?...

Let's talk items. First up; the flow staff! You can see it in the trailer. The flow staff folds in to fight and out to fly; both in the game and on the sheet. But it's weaker than most heavy weapons. All illustrated items have mechanics on the back. Never look up a magic item effect again.

#GM tip of the day Whataver helps inspire you to understand what a character is like is helpful. Songs and music can excel at this. Choose a song, any song, then ask what the character would be like if that was 'their' song. They don't even have to be important - anyone can have a song. #ttrpg 1/2

I enjoy buying indie TTRPGs and immediately renaming them because the author decided to go with "game.pdf" or "final.pdf" (or "final1.pdf", which raises questions that ought to have been answered by the word "final"), but I think my favourite turned out to be named "pdf.pdf". Like, tell me nothing.

Morning Repost! And an additional comment that one of my favorite things about YWDITP is, as Liz discusses in this interview, it's meant to a standalone work of art as much as a game. I think a lot of us consume indie TTRPG this way and it's cool seeing that factored into design.

Had a great Vaesen game tonight. First time I've run a new one shot and the players nailed it. Absolutely solved it. I feel really good about the complexity, or rather the lack thereof. If you have the means these two books really enhance the experience for the players: #ttrpg
