@shadomain.bsky.social & I did the video for his game (he did the video, I provided the VO.) Nice when you don't have to pay the help. 😉 He also did most art, but used stock images that he purchased for the video to get the "vibe" of what he was doing.

If you need a female VO though,

The idea of crowdfunding my next project is growing stronger.

But my dilemma: to crowdfund you need art assets to help showcase the thing you’re trying to crowdfund.

But those art assets also cost money! (That I don’t quite have)

How do you usually go about this? How much art do you usually buy?

Daily DnD would you rather:
Regarding looking for traps.

your GM have you do 1 “trap checking” roll before every dungeon floor & apply that result to your trap detection.

Or you don’t roll to check until you’ve basically triggered one and they give you some grace to get out of the way instead?

Hey,
Have you ever wanted to play a rom com style TTRPG?

Bard players, I’m talking to you.

If yeah, you might like my game:
First Date Update - A lighthearted, GMless rom com TTRPG.

You’ll be able to pick it up through IPR at your next con or buy it through me at a discount (shoot me a DM)

A fully set up Montford Tales stand with copies of Dead Letter Society and The Almanac of Sanguine Paths.

I am all set up at #dragonmeet2025

Find me at J32, near the giant "8" on the wall, and judge my partner's wittiest description of The Almanac of Sanguine Paths 🐺😆

I’ll be wandering Dragonmeet today but stopping by here frequently, come and see Rich (and maybe me!) at stand N15!! 🙌

Peter from Fanterland in front of table 1B at Dragonmeet which is covered with TTRPG stuff you should come over for and buy.

Come find ME, @bodieh.bsky.social, @nessundovelab.bsky.social, and @fanterland.itch.io at table 1B (in front of the helpdesk) a #Dragonmeet.

Haha totally! Same name in YouTube if you’re interested but no pressure or stress either way friend.

I do think there’s a different crowd here, and certainly more familiar names (to me) but they tend to perform better in places with video content haha

I’ve been continuing the DnD/ttrpg would you rather short series over on insta and YouTube.

But I’ve sort of stopped writing them out for here. Is that something folks would like to see me revive in text format?

Dice roll homebrew rules are fun.

Like inspiration alternatives. Or rolling with emphasis. Or owing a crit to the DM etc.

Do you have any special dice roll rules at the table?

Good to meet you mate! These look amazing :)

A box that looks like a large leather bound book. On the cover, the title is in fancy cursive type and it says The Glasses Managerie by T.C. Petley. There is a pair of reading glasses mounted on the cover above the title. On the spine the title and author name are repeated. Below that, at the bottom it says 2024 Baybee Pub. Co. The word menagerie is intentionally misspelled to read managerie as a play on the word manager because it's a glasses manager.

I just wanna say hi from Atlantic CaNerdia! I'm not good at talking about myself. I love making personalized things for my nerdy friends. Like this box for keeping extra reading glasses safe and in one place!

Fey Rest Battle Map by Domille's Wondrous Works. It features a stone area next to a stream, surrounded by stone steps. It's lit by fireflies.

My upcoming game is Quest Nexus, a universal system meant to replace cumbersome systems like Shadowrun.
Has been in production since 2019.
Art is being done by the wonderful and talented @klurarts.bsky.social
Hoping to crowdfund in 2026.

Oh wow!! So this has been a long time coming! That’s very exciting. You must be eager for crowdfunding. When do you think, roughly, that will be?

Hiya Pat! We gotta grab a beer together one of these days :)

Are you working on anything new that you can share?

My name is Patrick (but people call me Pat) and i'm the one-man army behind Big Bite Games. Some of my work includes Isla Del Cretacio, Crank It Up!, and Synaptic Protocol. You can learn more about me at www.bigbitegames.ca.

For those of us who aren’t able to attend PAXu, let’s try & make a few new friends in the TTRPG space virtually!?

Tell me about you & your work, then scroll down and boost and let’s share one another’s work. It’s not the same as sharing a drink at the Marriott, but let’s be friends anyway?

Gunna miss you both too! Hope you have the best time :) take lots of pictures

Ah

The PAXu fomo is kicking in

It’s a really fun system eh?

Sometimes when I’m deep in game prep I can get a little lost.

I find it helpful to remind myself that if I only need to prep for the equivalent of two or three obstacles. And worst case, if I need to buy a little time, I can just throw closed door at my party and that’ll probably take all session.

Hi all! I'm Steph Campbell, who you may know as the person behind @ttrpgkids.com!

I decided it was time to make my own profile, and I'm looking forward to being "me" here and also sharing some of my non-TTRPGkids related projects 👀

The Kids are Alright... Right? Why Kids Gravitate Towards Horror Content in Gaming and Why it's Mostly Fine, Actually Pax U, Sunday 2:30pm ET Kelpie Theater

I'll be on a panel at Pax U about how kids engage with darker content in TTRPGs, what that means, and why it is usually pretty OK (and maybe what to do when it goes a bit too far).

Stop by on Sunday before the con ends, and I'm excited to get to chat with folks on this!
