A bit in the playtesting server has led to @probskay.com writing one of the strongest lyric games I've seen. I also can't think of many times I've seen a ttrpg slowly shift its tone like this. CWs sex work and accompanying risks and emotions. probskay.itch.io/dark-strolls

The developers of the Yomawari games have made a Stardew like, and it's not currently available in English, but they'll be updating it soon, and I am extremely intrigued.

NEO Scavenger, the previous title, was the sort of game where every part of it was intricate, but once you learned enough about it you could absolutely make it dance. Ostranauts has been in development for at least as long, and if you're an imm sim person you should really check it out.

What is a normal amount of research to do for twenty page Sonic TTRPG
Finished playing Fallen Leaf, and this was a rad little platformer that's channeling Curse Crackers, Shovel Knight, and also somehow every game in the NES library. Def a little slow to start, but significantly more depth than I expected. store.steampowered.com/app/1459010/...
Fallen Leaf on Steam
Fallen Leaf is a retro side-scrolling adventure focused on tight, action-packed level design set in a whimsical world where almost anything goes!

This is known as the Sonic Accord, and is necessary for his Containment
Nobody should be able to play Sonic the hedgehog in any ttrpg. If you can play Sonic, it’s a bad rpg
hey I'm looking for wargames made by women, I know there's the work of cavegirl that's got some interesting stuff but I'd like more names other myself, so if you've written a game in that space and you're a girl or you know someone who fits pleaaaaase reply
Hello! I'm the Dusk Witch, I'm a girl, and I wrote the wargame VANGUARD: lairoftheduskwitch.bearblog.dev/vanguard/ (Plus I've got a few more on the way)
VANGUARD
A postmodern roleplaying wargame ruleset.

This might be a bit of a hot take (and very much isn’t targeted at anyone to be super clear, just my general experiences over the last 8 months seeing people talk about my game) but I don’t think Girl Frame is niche or has a small audience, speaking as the person who has the sales numbers
The long bitter march towards Sonic The Hedgehog TTRPG 25 pages.
He wouldn't add a bunch of worldbuilding to the Sonic TTRPG.

There are just 29 days left until the #RomantasyTTRPG finishes! We've already had a lot of really cool entries. If you're working on something, how's it going?

So the thing with Sonic ttrpgs is that they can just happen to you. They don't warn you about this. They can just happen.
Check out Darkwood Pines! It's a very good horse-focused small rural town supernatural!

Well, it’s invoicing day, and since they’re really apparently not going to pay me for something I wrote for them two months ago, I guess today is the day to post about how @vulture.com fucks over its film freelancers. Long (sorry) thread, with receipts:
There are 118 feature films, plus galas, talks, podcast recordings, and more at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival. Our guide to the movies and events worth lining up for.
Okay so everyone's gotta be real normal about the most recent game to come to me in a dream. It's important to note that normal designers sometimes just call games this.
