I haven't been as excited about a game as I am about GILA in a long time.

I think there are a few reasons, two off the top of my head.

First, it's finally building my world properly into a game.

Second, I've been actively playing it for a while now. Updating and changing to make it great.

Ordered a couple sample zines to check out different formats to see what I like best for this endeavor

Ghoula RPGs @gilarpgs.bsky.social · 1d

Spent the night making a spreadsheet to crunch the numbers on a possible monthly zine thing on my patreon.

I really love the idea of an ongoing zine that explores Obron, and expands GILA and DUSK. Just need to make sure it makes sense, costwise.
