A buddy sent me a copy of Forbidden Psalm in a box of random tabletop minis, terrain & bits. I want to play it, but all my gaming friends are long distance

I think I've got it set up in Tabletop Simulator now

I mean it, put your lawmakers in your contacts. Put them on speed dial. Give their profiles little emojis. You do not have to be intimidated by someone whose salary you are paying. You have a loser whose whole ass job is letting you harass them into making your life suck less, ring that fucker up

A close up view from a black and white dungeon map.  The main 50x40 foot room features a  20x10 sunken pit in the center. A dead body floats face down on the eastern side of the room.

 There are arches to the east into a 10x30 bathhouse space. To the south is a door leading to a long hallways with 3 doors ending in debris.

A face-down bloated corpse stiffly bobs on the surface of the murky water flooding the entrance room...

The meta game aspect of having multiple groups going through the same persistent megadungeon is unexpectedly awesome. The *anxiety* caused in all new players when they realise that an unknown number of strangers (and ""friends"") are gunning for the same prize as them? Magical. There's your RP!

Villain for your next ttrpg session:

A person who taught themselves surgery from scratch through sheer trial and error

Inspired by Delta Green, your stats increase by d4 if you failed a skill check and one of the skills is surgery. Making an OSE quest with this for a hexcrawl!

So I think I'm finally allowed to make a big deal about the fact that @mythworks.bsky.social is publishing @rpdeshaies.farirpgs.com 's amazing zombie game BREATHLESS (in the same StoryPak format as CBR+PNK!) and they asked me to lay it you and give it that retro horror vibe!

I talk a lot about logos and branding/visual identity design as a service but I haven’t really gone into what those are.

So what is the difference between the two and why should you, as a game publisher, care?

This will probably be a blog at some point but for now it’ll be a (short?) thread.

a black and white pencil sketch of a dungeon tower built until a grassy hill, the cylindrical tower has a hand lightly grasping the tower sculpted into the tower's design. the hand is very suggestive. a path leads up to the arched entrance of the tower. hand lettered script at the top reads "The Dungeon That Tops You"
