I consulted on the Latin and Greek for this dope medieval horror game where death is fleeting and "Came Back Wrong" is an understatement. Check it out!!

Danse Macabre: Medieval Horror Roleplaying Explore the mysteries of a world beyond death. History, mutant madness, and old-school combat meet at the end of humanity.

my mom taught me there's two kinds of businesses: hot dog stands and art galleries

- hot dog stands protect territory and keep competition off their turf
- art galleries benefit from more adjacent art galleries, cluster together to amplify reach/support

youre an art gallery, not a hot dog stand

Just had a blast running HIT! with Games on Demand at GenCon 😁 psyched to run it again tomorrow!!

An illustration by Helena Ramos for the TTRPG zine Hit!. The scene depicts two characters in a shootout in a sci-fi casino. Using an overturned roulette table as cover, an anthropomorphic bat clumsily tries to reload his revolver. To his left, a pink-haired woman dives into cover behind the roulette table and narrowly dodges a hail of bullets rippling across the casino floor, presumably from some security guards these would-be thieves have alerted.

Occasionally, heists go according to plan. Most times, though, they end up a bit more like this.

In Hit!, you play as a bunch of idiot space criminals trying to pull a Job. Shuffle up a deck of cards, think up a heist, and play it from start to finish — all in one hour, no prep required!

Historiographies of Game Studies is now published open access with @punctumbooks.bsky.social ! This massive collection examines why game studies is the way it is, and how it might change and grow in the future. Congrats to all contributors, and please share!

I participated in the art for this RPG! I reckon a lot of you play tabletops, so go give it a shot! It was lovely working on some original projects after so much time.

Oh this game is great, by the way! I had the pleasure of playtesting it and I loved the way the literal blackjack push-your-luck mechanic drives heist play forward; sometimes you know things are gonna go bad and you have to try anyway

Most personally revelatory: this page on Tournamentality in games. Too much for alt text here, but my words in summary: treating your life like a series of matches in a big tournament, in or out of games, will cook your brain.

the origins award

i wasnt expecting yazeba's to win an origins award (i honestly assumed it just wasnt gonna happen) so i didn't prepare a speech or someone to accept it or anything

World ended. What now? Sail.

Everyone “finishing” this game is like “my my what a delightful little puzzler” and everyone that sticks with it sounds like the protagonist at the end of a lovecraft story.
