"I can't afford to buy an indie #ttrpg, so I can't play them!"

This is your reminder that almost every single indie designer i know will just send you a copy if you email them and say "hey, I can't afford your game right now but i want to check it out!"
This thread is full of interesting games and trans ttrpg designers if you’re looking for new games to try!
hey the world is trash and everything's shit but i am here to say that if you are a trans game designer TELL ME BELOW about your latest project and i will at the very least say cool things about it and repost it, and maybe vibe check it on my blog.

TRANS DESIGNERS ONLY Y'ALL.
I just added some free community copies of this game. If you are trans, an immigrant, or otherwise in need of encouragement right now, please take a copy - no questions asked.
My cozy sci-fi #ttrpg is currently on sale for $2.50 to celebrate the launch of v1.2! Check it out if you’re looking for last minute gifts for the ttrpg player in your life.

Hiya! I’m eagerly looking through these comments for new creators to follow. My most recent project is a 2 player ttrpg about late night conversations in space. It’s a super cozy collaborative sci-fi storytelling game.

In 2025, I want to try:

🍲 Stewpot by @noroadhome.itch.io
🪑 Guys in Chairs by @superdillin.bsky.social
💍 Eyes on the Prize by Ira Prince

And I want to play more of:

🏨 Yazeba’s Bed and Breakfast by
🐸 Stacks of Goblins by CobblePath Games
📚 Fox Curio’s Floating Bookshop by @lostwaysclub.itch.io
This is a tough one because I've found games that I like returning to.

In 2025, I look forward to trying:

🪄 Ars Magica
📱 Alice is Missing
👑 Rebel Crown
🤘 CBR+PNK
❤️ Heart: The City Beneath

And then reading, designing, prepping and running RuneQuest, Pendragon and D&D retroclones.
Jumping on this trend!

Looking forward to trying these games in 2025):

🎡Burning Wheel
🤺XCrawl Classics
⚔️Draw Steel
🛸Mothership
🅾️Some sort of OSR system or AD&D (again)

Also looking forward to returning to Star Trek Adventures. Great game! No 5E for me this year, I think? We'll see.

if you made art this year, you did well. a sketch, even if it was scrapped ; a poem, even if it was deleted — mattered. you put thought to paper, you engaged with the creative alchemy of turning feeling to something tangible. doesn't matter if you weren't productive "enough." or good "enough."

I can't overstate how magical life becomes when you approach friendship in a meaningful, intentional way. When you decide you actually do owe things to each other. When romance is not a prerequisite for depth.

hahaha what if we started a newsletter about narratively focused #TTRPG design, innovating in APs, noncolonial worldbuilding, and liberational storytelling with a spotlight on radical imagination……. haha jk…. unless….?
