Solo TTRPG & ECO MOFOS!! Sale!!!! by David Blandy A bundle by David Blandy, $20.00 for 14 games

We’ve got big plans for an ECO MOFOS!! expansion/setting, heading into Windwaker meets Waterworld, and I’m running a summer sale to help that happen. itch.io/s/157703/sol...

Hey all!

I took a short break after releasing Skin Crawl (physical version in the works!) I've got a few things to catch up on, namely a game about dream demons and an adventure for #ecomofos under the working title Inheritance of Pain!

I'm looking forward to getting back in the groove!

#ttrpg

If you're able, switch to direct-to-you payouts immediately. Absolutely fuck this.

Be cool like Rex and get yer US-based Eco mofos swag at Floating Chair! (Link 👇🏻)

I'm glad it arrived safely. I hope you have fun with it!

Really pleased too, since I started with only a week and a bit left, just managed to get it under the door 😆

I hope everyone enjoys playing it, and I hope you like that one Simpsons episode with the evil wig!

What does the flesh remember? If it can think, does it hate us?

So I just released Skin Crawl, a subcutaneous point-crawl for Mothership's TripTech Game Jam.

Feel free to check it out! headless-press.itch.io/skin-crawl

Black and white A4-shaped poster with the word MAKE in big bold letters at the top and ZINES! in big bold letters at the bottom. In between, in capital letters is the following text... NO ONE CAN TAKE SELF PUBLISHING AWAY FROM YOU. NO ALGORITHMS OR OLIGARCHS CAN CENSOR YOU. NO GATEKEEPERS CAN TELL YOU WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY IS NOT IMPORTANT OR VALUABLE. NO GRANT FUNDING CAN BE WITHDRAWN FROM YOUR WORDS. NO INSTITUTION CAN BAR YOU FROM ENTERING. NO KNOWLEDGE IS UNAUTHORIZED. THAT IS WHY YOU MUST MAKE ZINES!

This ruling must not stand. Please join me in supporting Good Law Project's challenge.

Hoping to get an MVP playtest version of the latter and an outline of the former done over the next two weeks!

I am currently working on two very different projects: one is an adventure for #ECOMOFOS, and the other is a collaborative narrative game that was going to be for #PocketQuest2025 but rapidly crept in scope (as I crept further into the purgatory of ideating random tables 😆).

Test prints have arrived and they look gorgeous, one is saddle-stitched the other is square- backed; just giving it a once-over before I bask in how surreal this feels!

What's better than writing two projects at once?

Derailing myself designing classes...😆 #osr #ttrpg

Pencil sketch of the Studio Ghibli character, Porco Rosso with a modified quote from the movie "Better a pig than a gen A.I. user!"

Better a pig than a gen A.I. user!

Brilliant! Now I can make a cast, pour in some wax to make a copy, consecrate a marble and do my conjurations on the go, how considerate!😆

This is the sort of machine that makes me want to build a retrofuturist cyberdeck to do all my writing on...

Sounds good to me!

I'm looking forward to seeing this release, seems right up my alley!

Gah, this is frustrating. I enjoy Runequest and Pendragon a lot, too. Luckily, I've got some of the older (RQ3, the weird games-workshop era) books I can fall back on, but this trajectory is a shame nonetheless.

Famous artists @amandalee.bsky.social Scrap World and @andrewwalter.bsky.social talking about the quality inherent in creation just because you need to get an idea out into the world.

Now happening at Bonington Gallery, Nottingham, as part of Weird Hope Engines.

It was awesome to experience it, excellent stuff!

A photo of crowds gathered in a gallery

A gallery installation that looks like a cubicle in an office. Posters on the wall read "The Record Is The Truth and The Truth Is The Record" and "Building Better History!". Beneath them is a desk holding an electric typewriter and a binder filled with paper.

A group of women gathered around a desk typing on an electric typewriter.

A sheet of typed text. It reads: If now is not The moment, when will it be I have been keeping pieces of myself My innermost self - inside a jar Just some fishnets that I deemed surplus Deemed by the deemers, you understand? And so long as I KEEP THIS JAR (do you hear? do you speak?) I WILL KEEP DOING IT I cannot be stopped Not by you, or you, or you Until I run out of jars, Or run out of me Yours Xxxxxxxxxxxxx

What a surreal but gratifying experience. Writing a game for a gallery installation isn't something I ever imagined I'd do and watching people play and engage with it was incredible. Huge thanks to @davidblandyrpgs.bsky.social and the team behind Weird Hope Engines for inviting me to be part of it.

"The crocodile loves us. They eat our pain."

Opening 21st March 2025 (tomorrow!) at Bonington Gallery, Nottingham:

WEIRD HOPE ENGINES, featuring an army of TTRPG Luminaries: Angela Washko Scrap World @davidblandyrpgs.bsky.social @amandalee.bsky.social @andrewwalter.bsky.social and more. (Also me!)

Yeah it was great, some excellent and inspiring stuff on display! I'm now very keen on getting me a copy of Eco Mofos too so I'd consider that a win 😆

Oh nice! Yes indeed 😆 We'll have to actually meet up one of these days!
