Hell yeah man! Thanks for sharing the link, it's such great stuff.
Nice! Looking forward to reading a deep dive on a tough design space many designers engage with.
"Which would you rather play, a GMless or a diceless RPG"
To which I say, "why not both"
To which you say, "examples please"
Leaving out (checks notes) every single one of my games, let me throw out a few. If I miss your favs, chime in!

Wow, Alien Earth started out so strong but has sure gotten real dumb the last couple episodes...
It’s an honor to help launch this series with @anasalter.bsky.social
⬇️ 🚨🚨Heads up, this sale ends tonight!🚨🚨
This is a _rare_ occasion when my physical books are on sale as well my digital stuff (probably increasingly rare if the tariff situation continues to worsen).
good morning, i wrote a manifesto about a new direction for game design / play

I cannot recommend Aaron's books enough, they are fantastic games and 50 years of text games is an amazing dive into the history of games that has largely been left out of the popular consciousness
Reminder: my #BookSale this weekend includes:
🚪 Subcutanean, spooky novel that changes for each reader: subcutanean.textories.com
⚔️ Downcrawl 2E, #TTRPG of underworld exploration: www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...
💾 50 Years of Text Games, history of interactive fiction: if50.textories.com
ReSkies or NuBlues or whatever they're called on here much appreciated 🙏
Absolutely! But with only fifty chapters there were hundreds it would have been great to cover that didn't make it in 😭
(I mean that very literally, I had a long list of over 1000 possible games and a shortlist of several hundred...)
At that last link BTW you can pick up a print copy of Where The Rock Stops: I only did a tiny print run of 100 zines, so grab it soon if you want it!
Also, this is a rare sale where my physical books are all discounted too, so snag a 50 Years of Text Games or Subcutanean if you've been waiting!
