- Prep a good plot.

- Reposted by Lucas FalkHello. It's my final week as a full time game designer, and as if to underline why I can't do this anymore, I currently can't afford to cover my bills at the end of the month. All of my work on itch is on sale. Tell your friends, buy something, thank you very much. itch.io/s/179351/jan...

- Reposted by Lucas Falka delayed game is eventually good but a canceled game that never comes out and had cool promotional material will be good forever
- Bovino is short. Miller looks like Nosferatu. Vance has babyface. Trump’s hair is weird. So what? Their looks are not the problem. Don’t confuse ridicule with accountability.

- Couldn't resist joining a challenge, so I wrote a silly adventure. And it just happened to be Goblin Week! ceruleanfive.itch.io/goblins

- I just updated my OSR heartbreaker with illustrations made by my father. It's a minimalistic tabletop role-playing game reimagining old-school play with player-facing rolls, mixed-result outcomes, and single-roll exchanges. ceruleanfive.itch.io/losr

- Reposted by Lucas FalkRTFM, the (an) RPG book club podcast, is back from hibernation. @snaxwell.bsky.social and I talk about This is Where the Stars Died by Scott Malthouse, "a non-linear narrative wargame." What does that mean? What's a war game? Am I supposed to be painting small men? open.spotify.com/episode/5ow2...

- I’m a socialist, but I think Itch leans a bit too hard into anti-capitalist moralizing.

- Reposted by Lucas FalkIf it's okay, I want to comment on exactly one dimension of the recent Rascal story about Yazeba's B&B, Possum Creek Games, Jay Dragon (note: a friend), and leaving vital contributors in the lurch: I hate the warping impact that boom-or-bust product launch crowdfunding has on the TTRPG industry.

- For the longest time, I've wanted to make a TTRPG advancement system based on the Sphere Grid in Final Fantasy X. Let's go!

- Thinking about an XP system. “XP could be kind of diegetic—so you can find it in caves or get it as payment and that sort of thing. You could maybe even barter with it to get better weapons and equipment. I'm crazy smart, why has no one else thought of this before!?”
- Reposted by Lucas FalkSome notes about how I write TTRPG adventures: My texts tend to be terse. A location described in two lines; a single spoken sentence to describe a character. The aim is *not* to be laconic, but to mirror the pace of natural dialogue; a TTRPG is a conversation between players, after all! 1/

- Reposted by Lucas FalkHey folks! Myself and @georgiacooked.bsky.social are creating a TTRPG zine for Zine month this year! The game is a GM-less, tragic horror about explorers trapped by a cave in. It's set in the real world and uses a d6 communal dice pool mechanic. Please give us a follow and spread the word!

- Reposted by Lucas Falk@bradkerr.net and I made another short adventure pamphlet. This one is called YEAST GHOULS! It will be available to buy in a while (not sure when, ask Brad) but you (yes you!) can get it RIGHT NOW by joining patreon.com/skullfungus. Cool huh?
- A couple of years ago, for a trip to the US I packed what I was reading at the time. Last minute, I realized it probably wasn't a great idea—those two were the ones.
