- Things are getting started now! If you can't make it live, it the seminar will be recorded so you can check it out later!
- My second favorite thing that I've learned while reviewing the Portuguese Shadowdark books is that the Portuguese word for "Elf" is "Elfo."
- I'm THRILLED to be joining Kickstarter Connect's free webinar: "Bringing Your RPG Zine to Life" on January 13th at 1pm EST! Other folks on the panel include Richardo Evangelho of @hitpointpress.bsky.social, Philip Reed, and @bobworldbuilder.bsky.social! Register today! luma.com/am5v20q5
- I am dealing with a VERY frustrating issue with our 3pl and have made myself feel better with some retail therapy by backing @gonzohistory.bsky.social's Booklet of Bounties on Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/mon...
- In my latest newsletter, I discuss how to ratchet-up the tension in Shadowdark by using a Jenga tower as a torch timer share.sender.net/campaigns/e2... If you want more emails like this, I'll even send you a free adventure for signing up for my newsletter! stats.sender.net/forms/dRqgzb...
- Reposted by Night Noon Games | Michael PutlackTimelapse of a virtual tabletop token for the Dogs of War Kickstarter by @deadhawkpub.bsky.social. (www.kickstarter.com/projects/dea...). A japanese oni! About half of it is me fixing one of its horns lol. #Shadowdark #Art
- I handle a few things at The Arcane Library, but one of my favorite things is Customer Service. Here is why... 🧵 1) Everyone is excited and enthusiastic for Shadowdark. 2) When the rare issue comes up, I'm usually able to fix it quickly, which people seem pretty thrilled about.
- 3) It's fun being able to connect with people. Every time someone emails from Colorado, I make sure to say "Hi from Fort Collins" (where I live)....
- When people email from New Zealand, I greet them with the Māori greeting "Kia ora" (think how everyone uses "aloha" in Hawaii). I traveled around Slovakia in October, and I've helped no less than THREE customers from there since then, so I've got to share what I enjoyed about their country.

View full threadWe've got a lot of good eggs in here, & the helpful attitude & overall positivity only makes Shadowdark more attractive to players coming over from other RPGs or who are just entering the hobby. In my option, Shadowdark's success is as much about the people as it is the game. Good job, everyone!
- I've got a newsletter going out in the next few days all about this: youtu.be/ac_Krk2x4PQ Trust me, you'll like it. All you need to do is sign up to get the article in your inbox! As thanks, I'll send you over a free Shadowdark adventure! Sign up now: stats.sender.net/forms/dRqgzb...
- That lil green check by my name means you'll be getting a lil sci-fi adventure from me if you back this campaign for DarkSpace zine!!! I've already started writing and am excited about how it's coming along!
- We just hit $7K and that means we have unlocked another stretch goal! Thanks to everyone who has already backed Shadow Crawler Carnage for DarkSpace RPG! And if you haven't pledged yet there's still time! #shadowdarkrpg #darkspacerpg #OSR #ttrpg www.kickstarter.com/projects/cra...
- Mike Shea's patreon is worth $4 a month and many times more. In addition to boatloads of GM resources, you get a bonus podcast each week! This week it's all about Shadowdark's intro adventure "Lost Citadel of the Scarlet Minotaur!"
- Another Shadowdark video by @techdweeb.bsky.social. His production value, the editing, the lighting, the script, the awesome props, are so good. Really cool to see Shadowdark getting attention even from non-D&D youtubers!
- The darkness is spreading... If you ARE an FLGS or know an FLGS that would want to carry Shadowdark, all you/they need to do it shoot an email over to wholesale@thearcanelibrary.com to get set up!
- Are you ready to explore the #SHADOWDARK? We now have this Ennie Award-winning roleplaying game in! Along with some of its supplements. #RPGs #TTRPGs #FRPGs #IndieRPGs #ShadowdarkRPG #AthensGA

- Old D&D monsters are just wild.
- This is radical. Yochai already does such a great job nurturing the Cairn community, and doing this will only strengthen the Cairn scene.
- My zine about creating & adapting monsters for use in Shadowdark RPG cleverly titled "Creating & Adapting Monsters for use in Shadowdark RPG" is 8 sales away from being a "Silver" best seller. If that interests you & you've got an extra $5, check it out! (If you don't have $5, it's free on itch!)
- Do yourself a favor and watch the new @jpcoovert.bsky.social video about fulfilling his recent Kickstarter campaign. It involves 10 pallets of books showing up at his door! youtu.be/NAQSrORALGc?...
- Reposted by Night Noon Games | Michael PutlackFor me #shadowdark has been transformational in the way I game. It fully enables the OSR concept of "Rulings not Rules" by being so minimalist and well conceived. I have termed it JEFA: Just Enough For Adjudication.
- New Shadowdark house rule from tonight.
- Reposted by Night Noon Games | Michael PutlackGoddammit Shadowdark you're the best
- This is pretty rad.
- Boy, do I have a lot of work I need to get done in the next 41 days... gotta lean on an old favorite: "I'm gunna make it through this year if it kills me." I also enjoy this acoustic version of The Mountain Goats' "This Year" a lot better than the original album version.
- I'm looking forward to seeing this Christmas weekend of next year. If it's even half as good as Nosferatu, I'll be very pleased.
- I'm a stretch goal!
- Want to see new DarkSpace RPG adventures written by your favorite Shadowdark RPG third party community writers?! Now's your chance. Back Shadow Crawler Carnage for Darkspace RPG today! #OSR #ttrpg #shadowdarkrpg #darkspacerpg www.kickstarter.com/projects/cra...
- The kickstarter for the new DarkSpace zine from @crawlclub.bsky.social is OH so close to funding. If you want to try Shadowdark ~in space,~ you're going to want to pick up this bad boy. Plus, I'm writing an adventure if one of the stretch goals is hit! www.kickstarter.com/projects/cra...
- I've had a VERY D&D last 8 days. Wednesday - Play Shadowdark Friday - Sell Shadowdark at ArcaneCon Saturday - Sell/DM Ravenloft w/ Shadowdark Tuesday - Give presentation to GMs on Shadowdark and play Dread Thursday - Play Shadowdark Gotta lotta Shadowdark writing to do this weekend, too!
- Playing Dread. Tensions are high. Someone is possessed by an old-timey boat captain when Nickelback plays.
- My DarkSpace monster stretch goal is already unlocked!!! Check out the campaign to get your Shadowdark IN SPACE fix!!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dmi...
- The Starman - First Legendary Denizen We are thrilled to have some incredibly talented creators bringing their imagination to DarkSpace. Each one brings a Legendary Denizen epic enough to deserve its own page! Our first Legendary Denizen is THE STARMAN by Michael Putlack aka @nightnoon.games (3/3)
- Northern Lights visible with the naked eye from Colorado. Gotta work this into a d&d setting...
- I was beginning to lose hope, but oh my God it's finally happening!!! #dolmenwood
- I've watched a few of Clyde's Shadowdark videos and think they're really good. Check them out! This video even comes with a free introductory Shadowdark one-shot!
- Looking forward to this one! I already have sci-fi ideas spinning in my head.
- T-Minus 24 hours until launch! Grab the free Quickstart Rules now and sign-up ahead of time so you'll be ready to grab that early bird pricing tomorrow! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dmi... #darkspacerpg #shadowdark #scifirpg #ttrpg #OSR
