Big Walk is like if a small team worked comfortably on an open world co-op game for six years, discovering what their game should be as they designed it.
Writing is so often named either "good", "bad" or perhaps "mediocre" in videogames, and that's the end of the discussion. But prose can have so many different qualities and subtleties, and styles often have different objectives and intents.

Adding some context to this: Rascal's membership peaked in January this year at around 2500 subscribers. This was due to our 1$ sale in December where around 300 people signed up. But ever since then, it's been a steady decline... (1/x) bsky.app/profile/rasc...

This is such a high quality supplement. Really awesome work that is a meaningful addition to an already great game.
It’s been released! moth-lands.itch.io/the-contender Along with a bonus rolodex of factions I’m calling Lace & Leisure.
We shouldn't be too down on a game like Dungeons & Kittens winning an Ennie even though it lacks imagination or innovation. We should be down on it because the game re-introduce the civilized-savage dichotomy into a setting about talking adventure cats on the first page of its introduction.
Wouldn't be much of a philosophy major if I hadn't.

Why aren't more supplements presented as fictional newspaper articles? Why aren't we doing this all the time for our favorite games? Give me the poem that the traveling bard proclaims when they visit Stonetop! Present the oral history of how the Ektus mob took over this part of the Wildsea!
Then: THE RESONANT WEB, by the exceptional @notwritinggames.bsky.social

never ask a woman her age, a man his salary, Theodor W. Adorno his opinion on jazz music
Orchids revived, the corpse ambulant and a poetic ruined abbey. These are the news stories I want to read.
5 Days left to fund HAVE YOU BEEN A GOOD GIRL, a scifi duet extraction RPG about writing weird stories with a friend. So far we have unlocked additional GIRLs, more examples of play, and build-a-GIRL rules for all you hackers. Can we unlock more? Get a copy for $4! itch.io/s/195464/hav...
I loved the first track, so this is a very welcome addition. Nice and long too!
There are nine(9) sleeps until Big Walk comes out on August 4. aksfx are releasing new Big Walk music every day until launch. Each release is a radio station that you can listen to in the game. The first one, Lobby, is out now. youtu.be/mWFpjyAX_D8
Working hard to give my own twist to the stuff Hellsing did so well for our bonus episode of Eat the Reich (the vampires go drink all of Mussolini's blood).
Longest plonk I've done since starting puzzmo, I think 🤓

It's 15 years since I saw this pinned up in a hospital coffee shop, and I swear to god, not a day has gone by when I haven't thought about it
When you Try Your Best, roll 2d6: On a 10+, you pull it off as well as one could hope; on a 7-9, you get what you want but not what you need. on a 6-, you don't succeed.

I hope The Odyssey is at least decent because I am genuinely looking forward to parodying my favorite TENET review. It's a very dumb but enjoyable feeling.
Is Rule 7 the one where you're not allowed to discuss any rpgs on r/rpg?
