I wrote a Pirate Borg adventure about being trapped for a week in a horrible city ruled by Submarine Sorcerers. It has detailed weird npcs, a calendar of radical events, several locations to explore, and a canal that lets you engage in good ol' boat-based piracy!

The jam has links to the full rules of Moxie, an even more lightweight version of Moxie created by fans (Mini-Moxie), and multiple different Canva templates in the style of Grimwild for ease-of-use!

The discord is active and full of people very passionate about the system!
New ttrpg jam alert!

Moxie, the system from Grimwild, is having a fan-made game jam! I've played 25 systems this year, and Grimwild is the best development of narrative ttrpgs within the last few years, and so easy to create for.

Dice pools as clocks is my favorite way to run clocks! I'm very excited to see more of this ttrpg!
Many tried “dice pools as clocks”. IMO many failed.

I’m a senior software engineer by trade so I wrote code to run thousands of simulations to find the best way.

A way were the math is sound and makes sense.

This uses this mechanics and I’ve been testing it for 1+ year at an actual table
Looking for playtesters for an upcoming sci-fi horror game kind of like shadowdark meets ten candles meets mothership.

If you want to test it with your group, send me a DM on Bluesky and I’ll send you a free copy.

Oh interesting! I was unsure of Grimwild's dice pools as clocks before I ran it, but it worked perfectly for both myself as GM and the players. I'm excited to check this one out!
Post you from a different era 🫶🏼

I no longer serve as hard unfortunately
It took 4 years of on-and-off using a dating app to find somebody, but I've been with a girl I met on there for almost 6 years now. It can take a long time, and have bumps along the way, but it can work out!

If you're ever on the west coast and want to do a platonic hobby store date, I'd join you!

Working on just one of these at a time is wild. I do 2 minutes of work and then have to sit for 2+ hours for various things to dry.

Buster Sword from FFVII Remake is coming along nicely though. Almost ready for final paint job (this picture was many stages of the process ago).

A comment on itch reminded me of this idea for creating #TTRPG dungeons I had a while back. I still think its neat and I don't think I've actually shared it here on bsky.

So bsky.. meet Crossword Dungeons!
Do a crossword, use the answers and designs as inspiration for the rooms, get creative!
This sounds excellent and exciting! Pretty hard combo to pull off, but I'm incredibly interested to see if I gel with the mechanics!

Sounds like a fun time if I can find a hotel cheap enough in the area! Would be interested in selling cosplay props & a game + adventure

Anybody would be interested in recording an AP for the game ? Would love some real world examples to help people learning the game.

I won't buy shit until the digimon have romantic social links and pursuing them results in divine punishment
I also only noticed I had cut myself a bunch because my hand was all black from handling a bunch of black steel pipe and I squirted a ton of sanitizer all over it to clean it off
cut my hand a bunch on one of the communal handsaws at home depot

did anyone else know they had communal handsaws? they're in some of the aisles just sitting on random shelves so you can fit pipe into your car and stuff
