It's good to have friends in high places! (Or flat places) Stopped in Chicago after a long day of driving to see @outridercreative.bsky.social and @helpactionneeded.bsky.social before I set up for GameholeCon tomorrow!

Black Flies

A horror TTRPG where YOU'RE the villain! Join a cult, gather Followers, and turn townsfolk into flies in this rules-lite GM-less TTRPG. Will you seek your Fortune? Great for fans of Hot Fuzz, The Fly,...

We'll be playing Beefcake Lumberjacks versus the Queen of Darkness. During your workout, the royal heir of Zzrtrzz has come to pay the cult a visit and demands an exorbitant amount of Followers. Will the players get beefy enough to persuade enough followers to appease the dark lord?

Have I mentioned Portland Maine is the home of the International Cryptozoology Museum? I feel like this should've been said...

The Fly is what I think of when The Maligned have an outbreak. Something so disturbing you shouldn't look at it (but kinda want to). I need to put Mouth on my to-watch list

Super excited for these exclusive encounters! The Scientist is one of my favorite characters to play as. Part bug, part human, all weird.

Be a super villain and back both Black Flies and The CryptID Show today! (You know you wanna)

just finished writing the exclusive encounter characteristics for anyone who backs both The CryptID Show and @goosepoopgames.com's Black Flies, and let me tell you, they rock! don't just back both games to get these sweet exclusive cryptid sighting scenarios, but also because Black Flies is so COOL

Reading through the rules for this game was such a treat, and afterwards I ended up watching both The Fly and In the Mouth of Madness back-to-back because of how good the vibes are for capturing those exact flavors of horror

Eat the Reich!
Played for the first time today during a spooky gaming event

I played as the halfbat-halfhuman Flint, clobbering baddies left and right with my steel talons. Love the flexible storytelling and over the top scenarios Eat the Reich offers.

Did you know Black Flies is equally silly as it is spooky?
The most laughs I've had in a game in a while.

What if dice didn't have numbers, but abstract experiences?

"What did you roll?"

"A cool breeze on a summer's day."

"Alright, you hit. Make a damage roll."

I love reading about how to communicate better with others.

I'm a firm believer that there's always a better way to say something and handle a situation, and continuously studying it brings me closer to the positive outcomes.
