[CURIOUS:] fae.exe is doing monthly things???? @faeexe.itch.io · 6d
Trying to make my little things look ✨ premium ✨ when in reality they kinda suck lmao

Anyway here's what I made in 2025 that's coming out this year!! (a lot of it is still in the drawers and needs time in the oven OR might never come out)

Proper schedule+details next wednesday!

#curiouscollection
A dark blue-grey page with star motifs on the right, saying "The Fae.exe 2026 Curio(u)s Collection # 2026 sub-collections & icons (1) This year, you can look forward to: ## BACKPACK WORLD (ch. ×10) [Puzzle Game] [Free for a limited time] A complete puzzle book, inspired by LOK. 180 A4 pages, 10 Chapters. Chapters will release monthly. Backpack World will be free until July. After this date, I will increase the price by $0.5 with each chapter I release, up to 3$. Get it for free while you can! ## WORLDS IN A BOTTLE (×9) [Micro-Settings] The 2026 and first edition of my micro-settings collection. These are each one A4 page, front and back, of notes, tidbits, loaded questions and inspiration for use with whatever you want. (I made them with TTRPGs in mind.) These are denoted with the WiaB acronym and numbered in the order they were made. These will be free forever. ## INK•BLOTS (×5) [Interactive fictions] The 2026 (...and first) edition of my interactive fiction collection. Each of them was made in ink in less than a week. They are plain white text on a dark background, with no visuals and no sound. (They’re still neat maybe I promise lmao) These will be free to play, but have a purchase option for $1-2, if you want the source code to pop the hood and see the horrible stuff I did to ink. These have titles in all caps." Underneath are icons, denoting what each icon means. The puzzle-piece icon means "Puzzle Games", the quill icon means "Interactive fiction", the timer icon means "Free for a limited time", and the bottle icon means "Micro-settings". Same as the other picture. "# 2026 sub-collections & icons (2) # SOLITAIRE COLLECTION (×3 + 1 extra) [Solitaires] [Free for a limited time] The 2026 (and first lmao) edition of my solitaire collections. Three solo boardgames (and a bonus one) that you can play using a regular deck of 52 playing cards. These are 2-6 A4 pages of rules each. One of them requires printing a page and a pencil. They will be free until december, after which each solitaire will set you back $1. These are denoted by the SC acronym. # SPADESHIP DOWN (×1) [Boardgame] [Free for a limited time] [Larger release] A boardgame I made in 1.5 months. 20 A4 pages of rules. It’s a solo flip and write that you play using a regular deck of playing cards and a single printable player sheet. It has been playtested quite a bit. This will be free until december, after which it will cost $4. # ISEKAI SCHOOLBUS (×1) [TTRPG] [Larger release] A short TTRPG (setting + rules + playbooks) about a bunch of modern day autistic/neuro-atypical pre-schoolers getting isekai’d into an eldritch, apocalyptic, prehistoric setting, within the bodies of heroes tasked with saving the world. Never playtested but it was very fun to write. This one’s free, I’m not making anyone pay for this mess." At the bottom, the icons show: - A Meeple, denoting "Boardgames" - A 6 sided die, denoting "TTRPGs" - A Spades symbol (from traditional playing cards), denoting "Solitaires" - A 4-point star, denoting "Larger releases"

screenshot of aseprite displaying all 5 playable characters including Ricochet, Reishi and Jelly. the 3rd and 5th characters are only silhouettes, so you the viewer can get wondering about who they are~!

It's still January so.. 12 for 12 challenge time??

Recommend me games!

(Don't recommend an entire series. Suggest one game at a time. Be reasonable!)
Empty grid of 12 blank slots. Text says "12 FOR 12 CHALLENGE" and "12 months to play 12 games recommended by 12 friends"

scribbles!!!

#art #illustration
A digital drawing with lots of little scribbles and doodles covering the page, in cool pinks, purples and blues. There's a cat in a sweater, a ladybug, stars, a bird, and a snail.

Traditional scifi community: Zine is a newsletter usually of facts & opinions. Often 2-20 pages.

Fanfic: Zine is a collection of fic and art, maybe essays; can be hundreds of pages, bound like a book, etc.

Gaming: Zine can be a single-page fold-to-8-pgs mini-booklet. Can be game or personal notes.

Alright I've been seeing #zinequest and #zinemonth for #ttrpg for years but like

what the FUCK are the structural / form / content constraints of a zine, I've never managed to understandddddddddddddddd

Hey you! Are you a TTRPG writer staring at discourse on bluesky??? Would you rather be writing for a game? I want to pay you (at $0.20/word) to write for a zine month project!

I'm seeking folks interested in folk stories and examining power structures in storytelling!

Going through the things I made last year and going like, "hey actually this is pretty good????" every time like I'm surprised that it's not shite, what a GREAT feeling actually

I'm preparing all my itch pages for all my 2026 releases (so I just have to push a button every time), so I'm making like, little title cards & page assets for all of them, having lots of fun with it

And these kind of look cooler than the actual micro-settings docs..????

Wishlisting boosts the findability of games and costs you nothing. :3 Consider helping out a Lyonnaise trans game dev. Also the game looks super cool. Good luck, Jena.

Boardgames that let you level up tiny things

like holy shit levelling up the craftpersons in Inventors??? What do you mean whenever I pay one of them to pay for a cost they level up and are worth more points and I get to level up my whole TOWER afterwards and I get even more bonuses???

So good

I think Inventors of the South Tigris has felt like maybe one of the, if not the, most cognitively demanding game i've played. I think, comparing first plays, it felt even harder to parse through than Twilight Imperium 4e+PoK???? I don't know why
