Energy Coin Adventure Design A mental model to frame up adventures.

⚡ NEW BLOG POST! I'm back talking about adventure design, this time laying out a mental model for 'energy' inside of an adventure. It's a simple and effective way to categorize elements inside of the scenario and look for stagnation and chaos. Check it out! ⚡

Just playtested KerisianKult’s upcoming negadungeon for @morkborg.com!

I played a naked esoteric hermit with an iron mask welded on his face, and many carved grooves running down his body. In the end, BBEG fused with him after turning the rest of the party into zombies…

To get worthy movies out of Heretics and Chapterhouse, you would genuinely need a director who has very nearly overdosed on LSD several times and absolutely ADORES Barbarella, I'm just saying.

okay so AI is absolutely cratering imminently and I need all of you to PROMISE me you won't take the high road, and will laugh and rub it in their faces as much as possible. I need you to laugh and go 'WE TOLD YOU SO, BITCH" at every opportunity, PLEASE be extremely mean and ruthless

Shin Chainsaw Man is crazy good

For context, the screenshot is from a clip of the #2 most popular actual play in Indonesia. It's a generated ai video of an NPC that is shown when the GM is roleplaying that NPC. WHY WON'T YOU JUST SHOW THE GM'S FACE AND EXPRESSION ROLEPLAYING THAT NPC?????

My local Tabletop RPG scene is not alright.

I believe a lot of people here are creative and have the potential to be creative. But the widespread use of Generative AI for monetary gain, especially by KOL and influencers (actual plays, content creators, paid GMs) in this hobby makes me sick. (1/5)

It's done. 10k words covering everything I know about how to make RPGs, from your first idea to getting the book on the shelf. It's not perfect but I hope it helps someone. brackish-draught.bearblog.dev/everything-i...

finally got this game

Like Flowers, We Wither & Die by viendhita A system-agnostic horror TTRPG one-shot.

A friend of @harbowoputra.bsky.social and mine, Pandu, has just released from his first Tabletop RPG adventure! It's a system agnostic Horror pamphlet adventure involving a creepy motel and a forest entity. Do check out this new Indonesian creator's work!

viendhita.itch.io/like-flowers...

like for example in a heist game, the attributes could be detection/capture/pursuit
or in a noir game, misdirection/despair/violence

imagine if a save-based game goes all the way to remove all ability scores and replace them with save categories
since the game is about saves, not ability checks

it creates a dissonance between "str is how strong my character is" vs "saves are how my character react to dangers"

because strength is not a danger category

my thinking is more about how the oddlike games just slap str/dex/wil and call them saves, instead of tailoring the saves to what the usual dangers in the game are
