Snails are slow. I too am slow.
I'm still working on Snail Herders, but it won't released during November. Thanks for your patience.

Such good advice.
A year ago I participated in a 36-word ttrpg jam. I wanted to make a complete “game” within those strict confines. Starting with an end condition and working back was how I how got there.

that randomness article is one of my favourite pieces that you've written. Thanks for the thought and effort you put into these columns 🙏
"What I’ve noticed is that I easily forget the plays of low/no luck games... I will remember the plague in Calais that cost me the game of Kingmaker."

Beyond the Wall is so full of great ideas. I’ve used the collaborative world generation procedures from Further Afield a few times. So much flavour from so few rules.

Thanks for getting in touch.
I have not made any physical copies for sale. A couple of years ago small print publisher asked permission to do a limited run, which is likely what you saw. It’s been sold out for a couple of years.
I’ve no plans to do a physical release, but never say never 🍵
