Hello hello I'm Aaron Lim (he/him), a gamemaker based in PJ, Malaysia.
I made An Altogether Different River, Spectres of Brocken, and shitposts like Baby's First RPG, which you can find at ehronlime.itch.io.
I also organize a fortnightly online TTRPG playtesting meetup, Playtest Zero, on Discord.

Managed to get a quick two round playtest of physical SPEEDMECH and almost defeated by the ceiling fan. I think the Rapier needs a bit of a boost.

Really impressed with how elegant the reverse scoring is and how the multiple vectors/uses of each card combine into a very neat design space in Faraway.

One of my favorite conversations from Metatopia was with @czamboni.bsky.social where we talked about the use of RPGs to adapt (and potentially teach!) works of literature, and of course we started on the topic because of @planesailinggames.com's Expect Three Visitors, a take on A Christmas Carol.

"Japanese characters tend to have more curves, which often gives them a softer impression. ... We wanted something with the aggression of a spiked flail."
And that's exactly what we got.

We had the pleasure of curating the nominees for the Southeast Asian Indie Game Award 🌏 at the @indiegameawards.gg this year.
There’s a huge range of diversity in both the type of games as well as developers represented - what a year for SEA devs!
Looking forward to the show!

Tomorrow, we'll be hosting our fourth Bagong Laro RPG day (and the last one for the year).
We'll have three tables: Gubat Banwa, Reach of the Roach God (using OSE) and A Goon's Guide to the Galaxy.
(And if any Manileños see this, we've still got room forms.gle/16Sgkv6SVSEG... )
