Thanks, playtesters! It was a joy watching you build your sitcom world, fill it with zany shelter animals living their best lives together, and do stupid human tricks for treats. Miss the Kickstarter for Golden Good Girls? Pre-orders are now open: golden-good-girls.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...

In what feels like very serendipitous timing I just got my copy of Against the Gloom by @scryptidgames.bsky.social. Got to play this in a game run by Dustin at a local con. Very creative and collaborative game with a fun music playlist component. Looking forward to trying this one out again soon!

Golden Good Girls is live on Kickstarter! If a game that mashes up heartfelt sitcom nostalgia with goofy, snoot-booping hijinx is your kind of BS, this campaign is for you. www.kickstarter.com/projects/nat...

Want to collab? Let’s build a fantasy town floating in the void…

I still have two spots open on the Against the Gloom Kickstarter at the level where we create an anchora together based on a song you pick.

We have less than 48 hours left! Let’s rock!

Against the Gloom plays like a unique and harmonic song in the cacophony of recycled TTRPG genres. It challenges
the players to grow courage, not just for their in-game character, but for themselves as players living in a dysmorphic
world whose agenda is to crush the marginalized fight for hope. It reminds us we must find ways to remain healthy
of body and mind to bring order to the chaos. What better way than allowing a player's signature song to reflect the
love of Music and the love music can inspire? So, turn your Bluetooth speakers to eleven and blast Master of
Puppets, band your head, and know you are doing your part to fight despair.

Just got a review of Against the Gloom from our first group of playtesters engaging with the game without any Scryptid Games folks in the room! We're humbled by the feedback and grateful to @neversaydustin.bsky.social for dreaming up this world. www.kickstarter.com/projects/scr...
