1) Ai art is wrong
2) Artist should be payed for their work
3) Small TTRPG passion projects have zero budget
4) I have zero illustration skills

Said so, I'm working on a small Mothership adventure desperately needing for some illustrations and zero options to have them. This is frustrating.

Midnight Muscadines - The Cozy-Dark TTRPG of Magical Jams Midnight Muscadines is a cozy-dark tabletop roleplaying game of dice, playing cards, and magical jams. Magic is waning. Find, collect, and preserve the last sources of magic into highly coveted jams t...

Today I was considering a TTRPG on kickstarter: Midnight Muscarines. Unfortunately it's a US product and the unpredictability of the trade war currently ongoing made me reconsider. No more US products for me for the next 4 years, whenever possible.

The 3d VTT was canceled because the main developer killed his wife and himself. I hope it's not the same problem or this will become quickly a creepypasta

The Post Trauma Demo is another game that reminded me of the classic #ResidentEvil if it was directed by Wes Anderson. Absolutely worth your time, so check it out! @rawfury.bsky.social

One of the biggest surprise of this #NextFest on #Steam was the Cairn Demo. Cairn is for climbing what Steep was to skiing: pure simulation bliss. Sure, probably there will be achievements and stuff, but I will gladly play it just for the pleasure of climbing a mountain. Loved it! #videogames #Cairn

The Scarlet Lake Demo is an isometric horror game reminding me of the first #ResidentEvil
It's hard balancing the horror elements with exploration and combat without resulting easy or frustrating. Scarlet Lake nailed said balance. Try it out!

Michelle Trachtenberg

I am so sad, she was so ebullient as a child and I identified with her

I had the same feelings
I was bullied in School until I was older and became โ€œprettyโ€ and โ€œpopularโ€
It was rough for a poor kid, who was different
Rest easy now, Michelle
I wonโ€™t forget you ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

I tried the Twisted Tower Demo for the #SteamNextFest.
Simply put, ine of the best FPS in recent memory. It's a #boomershooter who does not try to mimic one.
Give it a go, if you want.

I'm writing a scenario for Coriolis, ment to be used as a campaign starter. I hate the publishing guidelines so much that I'm pondering to convert it in a generic sci-fi scenario to just put it on itch.io. The templates given by Free League are terrible too. #RPG #Coriolis

Critter Kitchen: the not-so-good
- at 2 players count leave behind the restaurateurs (thay can make the game very unbalanced)

Critter Kitchen: the good
- the aestethic is really nice (even if not at Flamecraft level)
- it's more complex than it seem
- the turns are fast and smooth
- I like the rumors mechanic

And the winner is: me!
Last week my journaling game won the "Furgone d'oro" ("Golden Van") award as the italian TTRPG who sold the most copies on dungeondice.it and all the related channels.
Let's hope this will spark interest in some non-italian editions *wink wink*

I was starting from your desire to play actual Islam-in-space. I just do not believe it would be a fun experience for a bunch of reasons. One of them is gender inequality.

Gender inequality is embedded in most religions. If you want "real" Islam (or Christianity, for what is worth) you get gender inequality for free. ^_^
