A stretch goal for zinetopia, labeled $6000 3 new guest writers. It has a picture of 3 different writers and says when unlocked, each will write their own worldsheet.

🚨ALERT🚨 ONLY 20 HOURS LEFT THIS IS NOT A DRILL. We're really close to a stretch goal that will bring 3 new guest writers to the project. They're all really cool people that I want to work with, and this is your last chance to help get them on this project!

Thank you!!!!

A screenshot of the How I Heard It backerkit page. The funding says $5001 / $5000. The page has an illustration of folks gathered around a campfire in a linocut style, and has a description that says: Gather ‘round the campfire to tell the tale of a folk hero long past in this storytelling TTRPG inspired by framing narratives like Name of the Wind. Explore themes of power and history as the story is warped by the conflicting ideals of those telling it.

And we're funded!! Yippee!!!! Thanks to everyone that has backed so far. This would not have been possible without you! Now let's move on to those stretch goals.

A New Wharton Study on AI Warns of a Growing Problem: Cognitive Surrender Casual users should pay special attention

This is a mental war that we have to win. It's not about being a luddite, it's about destroying or retaining the ability to think. It's about how insidious this becomes in a situation where generative AI is adopted and then subverted intentionally.

Come join us tomorrow!

Even MORE Zines! Roundup (#50 and a half) Hitting you with more TTRPG zines. Dont Torture Puppies, Great Hexpectations, Threads We Share, The Crypt Has Opened, and more! ... Also highlighting the No ICE in Minnesota bundle.

BOOM! I decided to drop ANOTHER issue (half-issue), celebrating Zinemonth for the remainder of February! ... More great RPG zines to pledge, play, and promote! chaoticanwriter.substack.com/p/copy-tons-...

The Cog That Remains & Tales from the Cockpit Print Runs A Lost & Found game of a giant robot, its many pilots, and the passage of time, and a Wretched & Alone game of a mecha mechanic.

We’re in the home stretch for #ZineQuest @backerkit.com! The print runs for both Tales from the Cockpit AND The Cog That Remains have funded, meaning now it’s just about making things more secure and getting more games to more backers - at a discount! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s...

Just 3 days and $200 to go! We are 95% funded, but need just a little more. It would be great to finish today so we can enter the last 48 funded!

Join us to play a TTRPG that forsakes the "table" part and embraces play outdoors or anywhere you want. Maybe even on a road trip? Around the LARP fire?

And we're live now! Come hang and watch our campfire story.

A little preview of the fun tonight!

Tonight at 8pm EST we premiere the actual play for How I Heard It, filmed around a real campfire in the winter snow. Join us in live chat as we recount the story of Marshie, a lowly barnacle scraper who would become the prophet of flame.

Just one week remaining! We're 90% funded and need to push through that final bit. Help us out!

Tell folk stories around the campfire, record your games in a legacy style straight in the book, and explore worlds from summer sleep away ghost stories to aliens at the end of the universe.

Thank you!! I'm glad you like Thieves. Feel free to DM me, I'd be happy to chat ☺️

4 friends sit around a campfire in a wintery woodland. They are telling a story, and surrounded by equipment for filming an actual play: lights, cameras, and mics.

2 weeks left on How I Heard It on @backerkit.com! We're over 70% funded, but we need your help to finish strong.

If you want to play RPGs like we are in the image below: outside around a campfire, then this is the game for you (lighting and cameras not required)!

Final screenshot of the games included in the No Ice In Minnesota itch.io bundle!

It's wild to see so many creators supporting Minnesota, standing against 🧊, and standing together for our neighbors. ❤️

Here are all 1,439 games in all their glory.

Y'all, @naladraws.com cooks. This cover is so dang cool 😍 Check out the Folk Hero edition of the game which will have a unique cover hand printed with linocuts???

Go help us raise money for the immigrant law center in Minnesota and get cool games as a bonus!?!

WAR PIGS, the #TTRPG we (Caroline, Lara and Morgan) made, has OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED ON KICKSTARTER! We’re officially part of #ZineQuest and everything! So! Official!

Back us here (don’t miss the add-on Morgan made me include for 13 coloring pages of goblins 💚) bit.ly/3LRStEF

A break from Zine Month posting to share the No ICE in Minnesota bundle! If you've been waiting to grab Thieves of the Tome in a bundle, this is a great one to do it in. There's a lot of cool games supporting a really important cause.

I'm loving this idea! To be anthological with the systems, but consistent with the world is clever. I'm always a one shot fan for ease of getting to the table, but why not have a low commitment sequel or way to string one shots.

You can tell stories of varied tones while building the same world.

And you should go follow them if you don't already! They all have very interesting ideas about stories that deserve to be shared.

To do a little #SelfpromoSaturday here: How I Heard It funding is well underway. I'd like to introduce our first guest writers!

They each pitched evocative and unique world sheets for the game. Help us fund so we can read em!

I think reddit's anti self promotion culture is frankly toxic. Especially in creative communities like roleplaying where creation and sharing of new things is a big part of it.

fr. Someone posted about Thieves of the Tome on there the other day, and I was so excited to see a post about my game, but then the mods took it down for self promotion. I didn't even know the person!?

Only 3 more hours for the free bonus RPG! Help push us over 50% funded in the first 48!

Okay that is veryyyy cool! Love to hear an accordion in a punk song.

A bunch of tags on a backerkit page: Zinetopia 2026, #folkpunk, #minimalism, #ruralcore

Haha Backerkits themes are funnny. I hadn't heard of someone calling something folk punk before, but it's pretty accurate to the vibes.

If this game makes even one group go camping with their friends then I have succeeded as a game designer, so please help us fund!
