Starting to work with Robin and the way that I have been has been nothing short of a delight. And she has very quickly and very effectively become close to my heart. I frequently say to her and genuinely mean it when I do, that she will never escape me. A fantastic creative partner. Ɛ>

So you know that study that says committing crimes with someone develops more trust than romantic involvement? That's how I feel about running games with @digthebad.bsky.social. We're like criminals getting away with something every single fucking time. The best creative partner one could have. <3

I'm in the big leagues, mum - my first crowdfunder. All The Way Down is a 150+ room, 6+ floor megadungeon we "wrote in 30 days", and goodness, it gets esoteric in your descent towards the reptilian core - we've really cooked. The turtle swims to availability this October. I hope to see you there.

I'm going fucking insane. What the fuck. This is incredible. Misery In Cathigan has been an exceptional experience. While joining is now closed, I am endlessly thankful for this experience. I love every player who has stuck this out with me. This has been something special and I'm glad it is loved.

What?? More art for a game from me?? No one could have seen this coming... I am currently playing a horror game called Misery In Cathigan and holy shit I am having so much fun being scared! ( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ ) Recently finished this fanart for the game and I'm sure more will come very soon.

A woman with her face in shadow, only her eyes visible. She is wearing a large off white cloth and holding a swaddled baby made of eels. She is surrounded by trees and nature. Top left is a building on a tall hill, top right the words "Misery In Cathigan" next to the moon, bottom right a stream of water.

Just read this and it's phenomenal. Incredibly well-drawn characters, and a situation that rests on the knife's edge of Violence. I hate everyone in it and feel desperately sad for them at the same time. Good shit.

ICD-10 Code W54 is my entry to the Violence jam hosted by @lukegearing.bsky.social. It's about an illegal teenage dog fighting night in Forres, Scotland and is, perhaps, my grimmest work yet. Photos taken with @moodcamera.bsky.social. You can get it on my Itch: rmrondel.itch.io/icd-10-code-...

A damn good read, and not just because I edited it - Juniper excels at conveying the many things the arts and humanities do that bewilder and enrage in the modern day, from corporate sponsorship to questionable presentation to even what feels like wilful ignorance of the state of the world. 7/10 IGN

Look, I know that I said I was writing a blog post about what ltrp can learn from larp, but sometimes you go to see a gallery show, drink a couple of nice cocktails, and end up angrily writing 5k words of art criticism. Its a heavy one. Enjoy responsibly. thegardenbelow.blot.im/authenticity...

I'm in this! I wrote and laid out a whole adventure and also assisted with the project management effort! This was such a labor of love and I'm so excited to see it hit the public eye.

Howdy! A bunch of folks who were in #over/under have been cooking up a 92 page zine for #mothership, and we're happy to announce that "Exit, Pursued by a Dream" is available! All proceeds go to the El Paso Food Not Bombs chapter, and preordering is until June 9th! theember.itch.io/exit-pursued...
