One of the big anxieties I see with a lot of burgeoning game devs is that making TTRPGs is difficult! So, I gathered a bunch of high quality resources to help beginner devs make their own games! #ttrpg #ttrpgresources

Hihi! You might notice a liiiittle radio silence, (more than usual at least) in the next few… hopefully only days, we’ll see
this is cuz im working on a very long write up about TTRPG culture, its pervasive racism, and the way we view sexuality within it (its vaguely about FATAL, too)

While ttrpgs vaguely inspired by metal gear solid exist (see: FIST) i think none of them will ever be truly considered β€œthe metal gear ttrpg” for me until the game encourages characters to have lengthy ruminations on ideology, politics, and human nature mid-battle

Hey #ttrpg folks. For those that haven't met me, which is a lot of you, my new thing has 24hrs left to make 1 million dollars. For every hour that goal is not met, I will eat a full book, spine and all. This will not kill me--it will make me stronger than ever before.

Do your part. Stop me now!!
