I realized recently I should post more about what Gestalheim is while Im trying to finish the next update. It is an expansion on the Emerge8 SRD by @titanomachyrpg.com that uses Dice pools against a DC to award successes. I was inspired by my experience using unofficial 5e skill challenges 1/?
I blame @lluisabadias.bsky.social for these new examples of fantasy lizard types using Gestalheim's lineage system. They inspired some of the public domain names with their art.

Is it just me or is anyone else creeped out by couples joking about stealing someone away from their committed partner in the pre-game chatter at the table?

We are now $489 behind on the $71 daily need to meet our $2200 monthly goal. Thus alongside not meeting more than 14% of our goal last month. We need immediate help, small donations add up!

Still working on Gestalheim, some playtesting has led to abilities moving toward Narrative effects with the basic moves being the focus for mechanical effects if that makes sense.

TTRPG Development Organisation! My progress spreadsheet for Skies Above... Green = complete, Yellow = In Progress. Red = Not Started
Mostly green and yellow but some bits in red. Luckily some of those yellows just need one or two things and they're good to swap to green!

Recent events in @damnyouwillis.bsky.social's comments and webcomic has got me thinking on something. As someone who recently came out as a biromantic asexual in the last few years, am I not the only one who saw In & Out and had it scare them back into the closet as a horror story? 1/4

I am... Not going to make the intended date for a new release of Gestalheim at the end of the month unfortunately. Work is killing me slowly at the moment with the sheer numbers of orders coming in. Here's some Dante art of an friends NPC adventuring party for the setting in compensation.

Im so tired of the romantization of cheating and bi-erasure in parts of the LGBTA community. Especially after the horror movie that was In and Out. The Kinsey scale is a scale for a fucking reason. That movie, along with other events pushed back my acceptance of being asexual biromantic by decades.

I miss being in a long-form Actual Play so bad. Let me develop the shit out of a character. I want to slow-burn my way through some Situations. I want to stew in some interpersonal dynamics till they're TENDER.

I need to read this tomorrow, this seems like a good guide on what to avoid and not avoid for modules in general.
I'm searching for Traveller Adventures to adapt to my upcoming campaign, and just read a 30 year old + module that isn't just the worst traveller module I've ever read, it might actually be the worst MODULE I've ever read.
And I've read The Forest Oracle.
