Got a brand new book for my special interest shelf! A fact totally not related to my last post 👀

A black book shelf full of book, the main focus is a big black book called "Ballet the definitive illustrated story" with gold text and a ballet dancer's legs in the background

The show must go on and this time it WILL kill you After all, art demands sacrifice. Coming soon, a mix between the Standing Ovation system designed for Pirouette and the fantastic Carta system by @catlinggun.bsky.social Every stage is different and this audience might just be worth dying for.

Without any context, what's the first line of your current WIP?

As a group, you stand at your marks, ready to perform one last dance but you aren’t just today’s performers, you’re a sacrifice, a gift to something unique.

I'm having a lot of fun posting creepy little stories on Insta to market this Massive shout out to the amazing @fistfulofcrits.bsky.social for making some truly brilliant layouts and designs for this game!

Sometimes the vibe is purposefully rancid and sometimes they are the exact opposite, To balance out the taxidermy maze, I just wrote this about a ghost dog called Patches!

The Ghosts - Patches
Buried in the 16th century, Patches has been standing guard ever since. Dedicated to his role, he never let a soul wander alone, never let a grave be unattended, and never let any entity do harm to his graveyard. Patches is extremely protective, even scaring off insects that might erode gravestones. Patches isn't completely alone in his role, there's a few spiritualists in town that still leave food out for him, little offerings and thanks for his dedication. Obviously he can't eat the food but he loves seeing those he considers a friend. Every day an | older man comes to the graveyard and visits one of the graves, Patches sits with him, his presence a small comfort during the man's moments of pain. Patches would never do harm to any human or animal that came into his graveyard but like the myths of old, he's ready to fight off the devil for those under his protection.

My submission to the Romantasy TTRPG Jam is The Slow Path, a duet about a human and a Fey royal falling in love, struggling to fight against the distorted time between the fey and mortal realms. Each time they see each other, years pass but only for one of them innocentgoblin.itch.io/the-slow-path

Writing more abilities for each archetype in What Haunts Us is funny because no matter what I introduce, I'll never be able to top the Influencer ability Today's Sponsor

Today's Sponsor: As an influencer, people are just paying you to be on camera. You now get a bonus money from your hunts, but only if you do a sponsored segment during a tense moment of the hunt. The amount you’re paid for your sponsored segments is to your GM’s discretion.

Elevator Pitch is my new duet TTRPG about getting stuck in a lift with a stranger, finding out you're dating the same person and working together to plot their murder before running away together. innocentgoblin.itch.io/elevator-pitch

Sometimes you just need to make games for yourself Especially if those game concepts are rather silly I also really enjoy this very minimalist cover image I quickly made up for it!

A white background with red small words saying "It's not premeditating, it's just an" Underneath is big bold text saying "Elevator Pitch" Dangling from the text with 2 thin wires is a grey elevator
