Roleplaying combat isn't hard, you mechanize combat because it's fun. Otherwise you can just freeform it.

- You don’t need to write for the least charitable player/reader.
- bleed is good actually when in check.
- mechanics function to help a game function. Use them.
- genre and mechanics are holding hands. (This becomes a systems do/don’t matter thing that I’m AVOIDING RN)
The rules and rulesets you create don't have to answer to people who don't choose to use them. They have to answer to the people who do choose to use them.
It's time for another campaign of Public Access in which we play some awful blorbos.
We’re sooo close to 4000 followers on the Public Access campaign!

Hey all, I got news from the hospital today that my dad will probably be gone within the next few days. I'm trying to plan out travel and funeral things, which I've never done before. People have been really kind and generous, and I hope it's clear how much I appreciate it. <3

screenshot of jason cordova and amaan on a virtual meeting with each other. the subtitle reads - There's no evidence this TV station actually existed.
Had a wonderful conversation with the one and only @jasoncordova.bsky.social of @gauntletrpg.bsky.social about Public Access, their upcoming game, and its inspirations, the new mechanics and expansions, and what creepy analog horror stories can be told in Deep Lake,

Will our party find all they seek, or dig too deep to discover what should never be found?
Hey friends. it hurts extra much to ask this while the world is collapsing, but I'm in an awful spot, and don't have anything left for medical copays or other bills. I hate this I hate it I hate it. I know most people are struggling, but anything helps. I'm working toward around $200 in fees.
We had a super fun stream last night with @chaoticblade5.bsky.social and @andrewbeauman.com and some fans of the game showed up to chat and talk about their experiences. Follow the page where I'll post updates on the development.

It's a struggle. The infusion nipped the worst in the bud, but it's still rough. I've been slowed to a crawl. Help me get back on track, please!
We are live!!
Tonight at 11pm EST I'll be joined by @chaoticblade5.bsky.social and @andrewbeauman.com as we count down the final hour of the crowdfunding campaign for The Crypt Has Opened. Join us on www.twitch.tv/whensuddenly...

Only 9 hours left. You'll never experience another game like this one. The magic system within The Crypt Has Opened is smooth, open, yet properly constrained within the mechanics to create unforgettable moments.

Also as a bit of trivia Lady Blackbird is heavily inspired by The Shadow of Yesterday. It's very fun to find out where games come from and how they exist in relation to other games.
It's very silly to see everyone in a dizzy about what is derivative in games and I'm over here being "What if I wrote the same module for multiple systems?"
Seriously if you look around the ttrpg design space you will either see us talking to one another or making games in love of others works.
We are funded! LET'S GOOOOOO!
Irene from @stevejacksongames.bsky.social gave @vjhcreations.bsky.social and myself a shout-out on their daily blog, The Daily Illuminator, the oldest daily blog on the Internet. Check it out! www.sjgames.com/ill/archive/...

So, I hate doing this. And I would not be doing it if it wasn't very literally my only option.
but i quite literally do not have the money to make it until my next paycheck. Anything helps.

Last call for anyone who wants to throw their hat in the ring for 5 ttrpg APs that are going to start recording this Spring! We are gonna start looking through submissions on Friday.
Commitments range from 2-3 sessions to potentially 12+ months. Thank you! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
I've known @andrewbeauman.com for many years. Our first meeting was when he and @beezeerpgs.com interviewed me for The Crypt Has Opened. We've been friends ever since and he's a truly gifted layout artist.

I honestly could not have gotten the campaign going without amazing help. @chaoticblade5.bsky.social brings with him a deep well of game knowledge and insight. I'm lucky to have him as my editor. Give him a follow!

Congratulations @artbyrecluse.bsky.social on reaching your funding goal for Murker of Mörks! www.kickstarter.com/projects/art...

Horror is such an expansive genre with many different sub-genres. Which one do you like the most? And why is it campy horror? #ttrpg #horror #talesfromthecrypt #eccomics #jackdavis #illustration
Did you know that The Crypt Has Opened has NO spell list, even though everyone casts spells? The system empowers you to be creative, leaning into narrative choices, using the Spell Path framework to make up whatever spell you want. #ttrpg #horror #campyhorror
