This game was tons of fun and perfect for the season! We played it for ourselves a while back and wrote about the experience. Long story short, you should play it.

Incidentally, I’m working on some Greek myth inspired sci-fi quest hooks 🏛️🏺🚀

If you could see any Ancient Greek tales retold in a sci-fi setting, which would you pick? Bonus points if they relate to a God, and more bonus points if you have some fun ideas on how you’d tell them ☺️

Originally drawn as the Isle of Rising Waters, written by Julia Russell for Overisles, the Inspirisles campaign setting of flying islands that teaches you sign language as part of the game mechanics by @hatchlingdm.itch.io

Went to a couple of school open days for my daughter and both presentations mentioned Dungeons & Dragons groups. Love that roleplaying has made it into the mainstream for children.

Yeah somehow doubt they’d do that to Harrison Ford.

What struck me most is the sound design. It’s sublime. The strange voices, echoes, contact of blade against enemies and surfaces, and so on….

Really enjoying the series! I know when I’ve found something incredible when each week is a tough wait.

Please @netflix.com, it’s time to greenlight Scavengers Reign Season 2! It’s a sci-fi horror masterpiece.

Montford Tales: Asher's Ridge LIVE on Kickstarter @montfordtales.com · Sep 2

What an evening!

Stretch goals have been updated – I didn't think I'd be doing that so soon! 🤞for this set; I'd love to watch what @storyweave.bsky.social would do with Asher's Ridge ✨

And now, dear internet, I leave spreading the word to your tender care (or else the sleep police will catch me).

Montford Tales: Asher's Ridge LIVE on Kickstarter @montfordtales.com · Sep 2

Now LIVE on Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mon...

Asher's Ridge is a GM-less, zero-prep #TTRPG for one to four players, inspired by Twin Peaks, The X-Files, and Stranger Things.

Connect threads of letter tiles and experience the unexplainable in the (dark?) heart of the Lake District.

A copy of Asher's Ridge sits among photos and a map. Letter tiles spell out "Back it now on Kickstarter"

Yeah, and I’m used to tough games like the Souls series, but with them you can organically level up to lesson the overall challenge.

Hatchlings Games: UNDERISLES late pledges now available! @hatchlingdm.itch.io · Sep 2

Never even tried that 😂. I don’t want to play anything that will cause stress so I stuck to the main game elements and exploration.

That’s exactly what I did! The saw blades level made me go ‘NOPE’ within about 3 tries 😂

I’ve completed Hollow Knight in preparation for Silksong, but couldn’t manage much past 100%. The skill ceiling was far too high.

Building up a database of artists/illustrators (especially BIPOC and minority) to reach out to for future collabs/paid work! Looking for anyone who loves drawing horror, folklore, and dark fairy tales, as I've a few things coming up in that field. 💀🪦

The contrast is really something! Bit like watching a double-bill of Totoro and Grave of the Fireflies in the 80s.
