The amount of times someone has confused me for asking for the green bike. Though I am feeling vindicated by these responses so thank you!

MapYourGrid We empower individuals, communities and nations around the world to map the electrical grid.

I've just been made aware of the MapYourGrid initiative to map electrical grids around the world, especially in the global south, to provide better data for energy planners.
They have resources teaching you how to map the grid using JOSM and an active discord. Very cool!

Hello everyone!

I am on the look out for playtesters for my outdoor adventure RPG, Everworld.

This game involves traditional RPG elements combined with tasks that need to be completed IRL to combine fantasy with real world settings.

Comment or DM if this sounds like your kind of adventure! 🌲🎲🏞️

Climbing Games Are Fun Because They're Not Fun
YouTube video by Adam Millard - The Architect of Games Climbing Games Are Fun Because They're Not Fun

A really interesting video about the rising appeal of climbing games that makes reference to outdoor adventure concepts like Type 2 fun.

The video delves into the relationship between hostility in these games and the support provided to overcome such hostility.

Another one of my favourite activities in Death Stranding has been making friends with all the animals.

Look at these lil' critters!

Rogue Octopus Escapes by Rogue Octopus Gaming Lab The escaping roleplaying game with more scenarios than you can shake a tentacle at!

Meanwhile, planning a Rogue Octopus Escapes game geared towards school groups had me putting together fact sheets of different octopus species.

Perhaps a 2e version of the game could include different species as classes?

Players will have huge free reign over choosing their species and will further make their characters unique through choosing traits and specialisms which they can advance through real world adventuring.

A lot of my creative efforts this month have gone into preparing our local games club for its launch but it has provided a lot of good food for thought for my own games.

As a lover of the outdoors, being able to play a game that has you really take notice of your surrounding and use them to build your own little world was so much fun!

Also, having the accompanying Orbital Blues: The Wanderer to expand @superdillin.bsky.social's character was so satisfying to expand on a story destined to end with heroic sacrifice.
