I've been marinating on the idea of starting an Actual Play-focused web fest based around peer review for a while now. Today, I finally wrote down all the ideas in my head and am gonna throw it out there to see if it resonates.

Check it out and apply by October 3rd if you're interested!
Intrepid Web Fest

For the morning crew! Actual Play folks, if YOU want to be a part of a new @numinousprod.bsky.social show, leave us a Grave Note!

This is a horror-inspired AP, so expect some macabre elements (content notices in form). The form will guide you through the game, which should take ~30 minutes tops.

So inspired by @dustehill.bsky.social's After Thoughts project that I hyper-focused and came up with this...

Grave Notes is an Actual Play about death, relationships, and the ways the impact of someone's life can continue when they are no longer alive. YOU can leave a grave note here ⬇️

An award announcement for an actual play. The background image is that of a deep bluish green damask wall paper. There is some random splatters that could be mistake for paint or blood.
