You've got three days to save $5 on your copy of Under an Atomic Sky! Now feature art by @hodagrpg.bsky.social! Issue #2 drops on Monday. It's chockablock full of hexes and kritters and relics and skrap!

Me, this morning: I'll just make a few random tables for NUKED! Me, this afternoon:

My writing partner and I spent an hour and a half last night pouring over notes we wrote about a dungeon 2 years ago trying to match them against a map that I drew 1 year ago. Suffice to say, these things did not align. Sure hope I learn an important lesson from this!

Preview of one of the dungeons for the next Under an Atomic Sky Issue. Dare you venture into the Skar to face down the dreaded Phantasmagorph? Hoping to wrap things up and get #2: The Maze Mountains out at the end of the summer!

Hey if you're looking for *checks notes* OVER 90 GAMES and want to support a good cause, you should check out this TTRPG bundle! itch.io/b/3670/typho...

NUKED! is a post-apocalyptic Knave Hack where players are bunker-busting Skrappers that use their Perks and Mutations to try and get rich before they croak! harshrealmpress.itch.io/nuked

Howdy Skrappers! Under an Atomic Sky is finally here, for real! Issue #1: Quitter's Respite is available on itch! If you're looking for the best thing since radioactive bread, look no further! My boy @joeshb.bsky.social crafted an exquisite cover the launch! macmakesgames.itch.io/under-an-ato...

Wanna play NUKED! with me and @joeshb.bsky.social on Friday? We'll be running through his Blue Mountain Resort adventure at 7 PM ET! (And I'm going to be this poorly drawn robot!) discord.com/channels/689...

@hodagrpg.bsky.social - the man, the myth, the legend - simply does not miss! Here's his Tekno-Kult Templar, illustrated for the Tekno-Kultist pamphlet macmakesgames.itch.io/the-tekno-kult

Finished a silly NUKED! add-on detailing the Fraternal Order of Vermotologists. Basically Scientology but if they were really into Frank Herbert instead of L. Ron Hubbard and if they were harmless idiots instead of actually rather terrifying. PWYW on itch, check it out! Art by @joeshb.bsky.social!

Work so far on the first pass of a "scrapbook" NUKED! rulebook. It only took way too dang long to use stamps and a typewriter. It's not intended to be NUKED! 2e, but there might be a few rules clarifications here and there. I'll work on this through the summer and see what happens. #NUKED

Day 42 - The Death House One of the earlier hexes I wrote for The Vast region with the intention to introduce a potential hireling for the Skrappers. #NUKED #hexcrawl #hex-a-day

Day 41 - Hexagonal Monolith The next in a series of monoliths that will slowly unlock the latent psionic powers within the Skrapper. Or make them go crazy. Y'know, whichever. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 40 - Meteorite Crater NUKED! doesn't have a crafting system, nor do I intend to write one up (leave that for the table to handle, I say!), but every now and then I like to sprinkle in a little bit of crafting - as a treat. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 39 - Fellowship of the Harvest One of the earlier hexes I actually wrote. Wanted to write a weird town that turns out not to be insidious. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 38 - Bomb Kultist Camp Everyone's favorite, whimsical, apocalyptic terrorists are at it again. This site exists to point the Skrappers in the direction of a future dungeon. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 37 - Old Spanish Mission Went for a simpler hex today to counteract my usual wordiness. A place to take shelter, refill canteens, and maybe get some food. Mind the giant stinky pig. #NUKED #hexcrawl #hex-a-day

Day 36 - Malpais Rangers' Vast Station Everyone knows I love Rangers, so it was a matter of time before they arrived in *NUKED!*. The Malpais Rangers are meant to be a do-gooder faction to balance out raidahs and groups like P.A.T.R.I.O.T. (and hell, the Tekno-Kult). #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 35 - P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Van Buren Bunker What post-apocalyptic world would be complete w/o a shadowy pre-apocalyptic shadow government? Not this one! Based on Fallout's Enclave, P.A.T.R.I.O.T. wants to rule over the wastes, but doesn't mind the mutants quite as much. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 34 - Skraptrap Copse I wrote up the skraptrap about a year ago after realizing NUKED! didn't have much in terms of plant-based creatures. It's based mostly on those weird cacti from RANGO, with a little Venus flytrap thrown in for good measure. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 33 - Bovine Bones A simple hex to end the work week. Started adding more details earlier, but realized it'd be better as a separate hex, so I'll share that one next week! #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 32 - Deep Space Observatory I wanted a place with aggressive Tekno-Kultists to contrast with the friendlier squad in Site 92. Came up with S.A.G.A.N. by accident, but I like a friendly AI who just wants to look at space. Thank you @tisenshrawder.bsky.social for helping me figure out the name.

Day 31 - Abandoned Chuck Wagon Was watching a western and it inspired me to create this hex. Still on the fence about building out Loot Tables, so that part of the entry might change later. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 30 - The Oracle's Cave Alocation originally showing up in Black Bog, but cut for space & lack of thematic cohesion. Haven't decided if the S.A.F.E. mentioned here is going to be the same as the S.A.F.E. mentioned by Rand at Devil's Camp (leaning yes). #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 29 - Devil Horns Campsite Inspired by @dicegoblin.blog, the Devil Horns camp is a known rest spot to veteran Skrappers. I love when adventures provide named hirelings/followers, so I figured a campsite would be a great place for the PCs to happen across such folks. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl

Day 28 - Fellowship of the Harvest This was actually one of the first hexes I wrote! Heavily inspired by the Pottsville episode of Over the Garden Wall. #NUKED #hex-a-day #hexcrawl
