Spent all afternoon playing The Last Tea Shop by @springvillager.bsky.social It’s been a cozy, gently magical vibe, and I got pleasantly lost in the game

I was pleasantly surprised that Last Tea Shop by @springvillager.bsky.social feels so much like a therapy session. As a clinician myself I usually hate that sort of thing but this extremely well done

Thank you everyone who has purchased Last Tea Shop during the Summer Sale. The game is sitting in the Itch physical games "top row" for the first time in a long time. 🥰

A NON-COMPREHENSIVE THREAD OF GAMES I LOVE THAT YOU SHOULD GET IN THE ITCH SALE. Hello. I like cozy solo journaling games, weird little silly things, introspective shit, GMless stuff... anyway, I'm going to create a thread of games I like that YOU should go check out in the Itch sale!

so yeah I guess I can say I'm looking for work! If you're looking for an artist for any book cover, TTRPG, board game, or just to get an illustration of your favourite character or your OC hit me up~ 🌟

Whenever I hear devs or other creatives who do worldbuilding say they *have* to use ch*tGPT to help with their lore bibles because no human could possibly collate such a huge and complex world… I glare in historian

Yesterday I released a micro-RPG for the #48wordRPGjam: The Witch’s Circle. A GM-less, conversational game for 2–6 players about shared memories, withheld truths, and an advancing threat. 🕯️ springvillager.itch.io/the-witchs-c...

The Witch's Circle is a micro-RPG for 2-6 players, inspired by "For the Queen" and "My Life with Master", and created for the #48WordRPGJam I tried to squeeze background, meaningful storytelling, and an endgame in under 48 words. Every word earned its place. springvillager.itch.io/the-witchs-c...

I made a tiny solo journalling rpg for the #48WordRPGJam about tending the infinite garden at the end of Time. 🌱 A game takes about 10 minutes and sits somewhere between journal prompt and ritual. springvillager.itch.io/the-eternal-...

Every time I think about Loom (1990) I wish someone would turn it into a ttrpg. Music as magic, weaving spells through melodies, a world built on loss and beauty. I’d play that in a heartbeat.

I just spent way too long setting up Obsidian templater to automatically calculate moon phases for journal entries... but it was super satisfying 🌙

I'm really taken with A Land Once Magic. So much thought has gone into this. It is such a human work. Thank you @vidityavoleti.bsky.social vidityavoleti.itch.io/a-land-once-...

Yesterday my leg was healed enough to go on a short walk up Pororari River. Sheer limestone cliffs, tui song, giant nikau palms, ferns and lichen everywhere. Last night it rained on the cabin and I dreamt of stone and moss

Come visit Doskvol, the jewel of Akoros, in '68. Home of the original bluetime (first and best). Crime rates are better than before*

For months I’ve been looking forward to hiking the Paparoa Track. Unfortunately, I twisted my knee yesterday and can’t walk. Instead, I’m in a tiny cabin for four days in Punakaiki, waiting for friends to return. Deeply sad about not going on the walk, but grateful for an impromptu solo retreat.

Just launched a major update for Allucinalia, a solo dream journaling game that I wrote last year! Streamlined prompts, new end-game mechanics, extended gameplay ideas, new layout, new art (shout-out to the Public Domain Image Archive)... same price it was before! maggiefrench.itch.io/allucinalia

A weekend learning about late Hellenistic trade networks, as work continues on Snail Herders 🐌

Lately the border has felt restless. The fog swirls with strange colours, and echoes linger longer. Even the fire seems uncertain of its warmth. 🎃 🍵 🐭 Last Tea Shop is on sale for Halloween #solotttrpg springvillager.itch.io/last-tea-sho...

You know that kind review you left for an indie game on itch? The creator read it and it meant the world to them. And they will go on to make more cool stuff because you took the time to say something positive. Being nice is cool. Keep it up.

I haven't played that many 2 player RPGs yet, but Last Tea Shop was so good, I enjoyed it greatly! A friend and I played the 2 player variant rules and decided to switch roles every round. We told a really fun and melancholic story together where we both knew what was happening without ever...
