Sharing this game from @takataapui.bsky.social which has been aptly released in the wake of the New Zealand Government's ridiculous, cowardly, and anti-science descision to restrict puberty blockers for our young people in need of gender affirming Healthcare

Appalled & disgusted by our government's actions today. If you have a trans kid considering puberty blockers, get a urgent appointment *before* the ban's in effect on Dec 19th.

Everyone else; write your MP, the health minister, the PM demanding Brown's resignation over this abomination. #nzpol

This week on Dice Exploder, just in time for Mausritter month, @itsquinns.bsky.social joins me to talk about the Mausritter's inventory system: the only inventory system I've ever liked.
Inventory Tetris (Mausritter) with Quinns — Dice Exploder
Mausritter is an old school dungeon crawling game where instead of playing as elves fighting dragons, you play as mice fleeing from owls. It’s not unlike any number of other old school games like Cair...

My mum discovered an unused Gocco Riso printer, and I decided to unbox it!

I'd love to learn how to use this thing and make some funky art for ttrpgs!

I need an intro to Riso printing, anyone got some pointers?

Yikes! Our tendencies to consolidate must be pushed against.
lmao nearly every major tabletop platform or website hosts on Cloudflare, which is currently shitting the metaphorical bed.

Kickstarter, Backerkit, and Gamefound. But also itch, Roll20, DTRPG. Effectively the whole online RPG market is offline.

My mum got a Cricut explore for her birthday, and she just tested it out using the logo for Wait, Roll That Again!

It's a seriously cool piece of tech

I've been playing around with the new Affinity Studio since it was released. TLDR; It's good. Very good. How long will it stay that way? It's still too early to tell.

Some background, my first impressions, and my wishlist are all here: www.explorersdesign.com/affinity-imp...

Reshare: Beyond the Pale deals with a complex situation around land, people, and persecution that's handled with enough care to render it both simple enough to understand and complex enough to give pause. Like the parables that inspired it.

Beyond the Pale is a fantastic moral adventure
Fantastic as in great and also as in magical.

When we put together a fun little zine of art and ttrpgs, I don't know that I ever expected that we would be able to turn it into such a tool for good!

This brings the total to $23,700 raised for Legal Aid in Richmond, Virginia, all because of TTRPGs.

Thank you everyone!
I'm so thankful for everyone's support in helping us meet this milestone. Absolutely brilliant.

Morning, it’s time to make your own TTRPG system from scratch
If you've ever dreamed of making your own TTRPG from scratch, I just published a new article on the blog about this exact subject.

I was asked by someone here on bluesky and figured this could be helpful to more folks so enjoy!

I really enjoyed the latest episode of Yes Indie'd from @newmadras.bsky.social interviewing @backwardsttrpg.bsky.social

The conversation on anchors was particularly interesting, I think it's a good framework to look at ttrpg mechanics through
