SLUG MODE: a drug-fueled diversion for Mothership by Thursday Garreau
a trip into the virtual Sluglands
thursday-garreau.itch.io
I just released SLUG MODE, my first Mothership pamphlet scenario! It expands on Slug, a psychedelic drug whose users all inhabit a shared virtual space while high - my favorite weird little plot hook from A Pound of Flesh.

seasonal depression grinds me into paste every year but i'm not sure this year's fix (O/U + blogging + releasing a Mothership trifold + getting married + spending a month on moving my mother) is sustainable as an alternative

I have been told that NSR is a thing that exists, and that an NSR is when an OSR is a "Story Game" and or has pronouns in it. A "story game" is like what if a TTRPG was a Walking Simulator. At the risk of expressing an opnion that will get me killed: I think walking simulators rock.
