Today Dice Exploder kicks off a miniseries on actual play, where each ep we cover one moment of play. First up is @rowanzeoli.bsky.social on the very beginning of My First Dungeon's Orbital Blues series, and an overview of where AP is at as a medium. Plus: is AP a fiction or nonfiction medium?

Actual Play: The First 30 Minutes (My First Dungeon: Orbital Blues) with Rowan Zeoli — Dice Exploder

It's a new series on Dice Exploder all about actual play. For five episodes, instead of breaking down one mechanic, we're going to break down one moment from one actual play show. This week: the openi...

4 heroes set forth to gather up demonic escapees in Overgrown, the only naturepunk TTRPG about rapidly evolving weird animal hybrids!

Not heroes. Demons. From the underworld. But who knows how exposure to Earth will change them?

Seeing a lot of folks migrating from Twitter posting images without ALT text, so a reminder!

Try to use ALT text! It helps folks who are blind or vision-impaired know the context of your images.

Ex: If you post, "look at this cool thing!" they won't know what your image is about, bc no ALT text!

How does alt text provide context for humans?

Low and/or impaired vision
Alt text can help people with low or impaired vision and different learning abilities interact with the content on your site.

Use of screen readers
Alt attributes enable screen readers to read the information about on-page images.

Image load issues
Alt text can provide context when images are unable to load due to connectivity issues or device settings.

I got to try out the Stalvaggar Knight character and somehow got the killing blow on the second boss (my front liner definitely felt the support so thanks to all on Table 1!). If you have an interest in Soulsborne games, or just like a grimdark setting, Doomspiral is one to keep an eye on!

Arcane Adventures In Andromedus continues tonight.

Passing through the back gate into Khaz’am’s industrial district our party encountered a number of corrupted dwarves.

Is this a foretelling as to what the mind virus may do if left unchecked?

I'm so SO humbled by the response to this - thank you so much to those of you who have checked it out, downloaded it, and even bought it! 💚🙏

If anyone plays it, let me know - and I want to know your outro song too.

Can I call myself a TTRPG writer now? Is that how this works?

Thank you. Again.

See mech game jam; write mech game.

I wrote this sad little thing today. It's about a dying mech pilot and their bonded mech AI who can't say goodbye.

I'm quite proud of this one. I hope you like it.
