lol that thread had some very… interesting takes about pbta. On both sides. Though tbh “pbta” means something different to everyone and I think it short circuits a lot of good discussions when people use it as shorthand for everything with mixed success results.

Those terms are funny though.

A few things on their way. All the best to you and the kitties from a pair of cat lovers and our four babies 🐈 🐈 🐈 🐈‍⬛

a crude drawing of a trash bin with a large human face sticking out of the top of it, surrounded by trash, with the caption "early testing for the public trash bins with human faces that beg to be fed garbage indicated that most found them too unsettling to use. However, the small number of participants, including some investors, who said they found the bins deeply erotic, and attempted to form romantic relationships with the bins was considered promising enough to continue funding the project."

Every Wednesday 4 of us [+the DM] play a TTRPG, and I did some realism sketches of our characters!

That’s a great suggestion. I went C++ to PHP to the deep dark Perlish waters personally, but C++ to PHP is a good bridge. Lots of familiar concepts and structure but much more loosey goosey with types (at least PHP 5 was). I have since clawed out of the abyss to the comfort of Python 😅

I can hear Donny’s voice in my head now 😅

Haha it me. Three cfb games under my belt now and no slowing down 🙂

Brindlewood Bay is a gem. Running a second campaign of it with some completely new to ttrpg friends and it is just so fun. And the cosmic horror is brilliant to drip feed initially into full blown cosmic entity over a campaign is just fantastic.

This has also been my experience introducing your games to four friends who had never played ttrpgs before. They universally “got it” straight away. Friends who had played DnD before with me took a bit longer to latch onto the idea of a conversation and collaboration.

Tinycat II! 😻🥺 We are truly blessed to be in his presence. May the spirit of Tinycat live on 🐈‍⬛

Cat! What’s her(?) name?

Community Salaries Reviews Jobs For Business v Tech Industry • 1h Amazon • EL TRUMP Something very strange is going on There is a seemingly coordinated effort to FLIP FLOP on Al. All of the execs who were hyping Al to death just a few weeks ago are now claiming that Al is a bubble, that AGI is nowhere near, and that Al will have a much smaller impact than anticipated. > Altman called it a bubble > Eric Schmidt said that AGI is basically bullshit > Matt Garman (AWS CEO) downplayed its impact WHY the sudden narrative switch? WHO gave the orders? I swear, it's like they're all part of some cult. They all embrace the same talking points all at once, and abandon them all at once.

Oh yeah things are falling apart. You've got paranoid guys on Blind freaking out now

👀 very excited to see what comes out of this

Well said!!

After reading By Endurance We Conquer, sat down and started actually writing down a CfB 2-3 shot game that’s Holes but what if the counselors are a cult doing a cthulu/dragon(?) summoning instead of finding a treasure. Idk if it’s gonna *work* but it feels really fun in my head 😇

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

They, of course, leave behind their phones because they’re trying to “reconnect with the primal man” (or some shit).

What if they basically could have just left whatever terror they run into alone but feel some need to “out-predator” it as the “alphas”?

Lots of angles of approach here 😀

Big congrats on getting both games out. Very excited to give them a read through 😁

Hell yeah!

I can’t help but wonder if the positive reviews and especially word of mouth hype around the game is boosting its late launch on PS. It’s a known “good game” now instead of unknown (probable) cash-grab IP schlock

As is tradition. Stay the course, it’s worthwhile 😁

Holy shit, I love it. That move is so perfect for the idea of telling a tale to your grandchildren. Fantastic

What an absolutely captivating idea for a playbook

Happy birthday!

Oh and the “free version” is a truly complete game you could (and lots of people have been) running for years. My group is a bunch of gamers and the levels of roleplay evoked by this game is unmatched. Every single sessions during debrief someone highlights something about the system that they love

Some of the most fun I’ve ever had running roleplaying games in my life. The game loop perfectly accents the “roleplaying game” part of #ttrpg
“Playing to find out what happens” is truly such a good time as a Keeper or player.
Check out the free version and back the crowdfunder. #thebetween #cfb

It's the 10th anniversary of Too Many Cooks. Fun fact: the part of Brindlewood Bay where you narrate the opening credits of the episode, which then get creepier as the campaign progresses, is directly inspired by Too Many Cooks.

The Between The Between is a tabletop roleplaying game about monster-hunters in Victorian-era London. It's inspired by the TV show Penny Dreadful, British horror classics, and pulp media. Its rules are based on t...

We are in the final week of our @backerkit.bsky.social crowdfunding campaign for The Between! So far we've unlocked 19 stretch goals, but we still have 7 to go.

A quick thread about each of these stretch goals, which are among the coolest of the campaign.

Fighting the game because I refused to use (or sometimes learn) the rules. Biggest example being balancing fights. I always used a calculator for encounters the would eyeball it, panic, and adjust (sometimes mid session). I could have gone by the book but I knew that might not serve the story
