Halfway there! 333 followers and less than 2 weeks till we launch 🤘
Coming soon from Adept Icarus! A setting so chaotic, even your one weird uncle would say "yikes!" The ideas within by nearly 100 people and wrangled into submission by Ryan Bouché. You can still preorder on our website! Cover art by Tithi Luadthong, hacked by David Miessler-Kubanek and Will Munn.
I’ve been using these BIG CHONKER d6 at the table to roll on our d66 tables from Arium Discover & Evolve during playtests. They’re my faves!
Have you ever seen a prettier (or more reluctant) spaceflower? Safety first, Tobi. Safety first.
Welp, cyanstarlight physical books SOLD OUT. It's only been a year and a few months since we fulfilled to backers. Honestly, I expected them to last longer. Alan made a great game, and I'm not complaining, but now to decide what to do next. *whispers* I think it's gonna be lonely and exciting.
2020. That’s the last time I had an in-person rpg group for more than one-shots. Covid, then I moved states. This week I started gaming with a new playtest group at my house. We made a n Arium called “Sky World: Above the Fog”.
I had a really good time constructing this comic-style collage with Arium: Evolve interior art by Tithi Luadthong and some sneaky use of Fernando Salvaterra's Complete Box Set cover art in the background. Graphic design isn't my TOP skill, but I think it is at least improving.
The world needs more flying pigs rolling dice. This opinion is not up for debate.
Look at the cool goodies I got from @scrapyarngames.bsky.social! I already read the pdf of Last Call In Arkham, and it’s really neat.
Hey lookie here! I'll be at LTUE - Life, the Universe, & Everything Symposium next month. I'll be on panels, running a HUGE Arium worldbuilding event, hanging out playing games, and chatting with folks at our booth!
Luckily, with some strategic bending, Glatisant came out mostly fine. What a gorgeous zine, y’all! @oddsandents.bsky.social did such an incredible job on the layout. It plays 2-player or solo. I’ll be giving it a try soon!
You may or may not know, I have a smallish (barely noticeable) obsession with Arthurian RPGs. When I found my package from Graftbound Press crumpled up in the Adept Icarus mailbox like it was being prepped as tinder for a bonfire, I’m sure I looked completely crestfallen.
Boothing at Holiday Matsuri this weekend. Big shout out to QuestCon Side Quests for helping us get a spot and supporting indie games!!!
Why just reprint when you can make a boxed set? I don’t know because WE’RE MAKING A BOXED SET.
Oh no, we have the good stuff. Guess I have a plan for breakfast, lunch, and dinner now.
Tinkering with full-page Troubles in the Lunar Call zine layout. I think I like it?
Layout of The Lunar Call digital zine stretch goal we unlocked for Rue From Ruin continues apace!
Played Tombpunk Mausoleum Edition tonight, and it’s true what they say. This game does not like you! It’s also incredibly fun. Orcine Volans managed to kick in a door, defeat some skeletons, and shed light on a dim and decrepit dungeon. All for the glorious sum on… ONE COIN.
Zuzu LOVES playing fetch with hair ties. It’s true. She’ll do this pretty much endlessly unless she hears the sound of dinner.
When your cat can’t find a more comfortable place to sleep than a bin full of ttrpg zines.
Ready to play some Rue From Ruin at Melbourne Toy & Comics Convention!
QuestCon was a lot of fun! Met awesome people, played games, built worlds. No notes!
It turns out, I can sketch the outline of a werewolf in photoshop as long as I have reference images…
This time has come to get on the Arium: Evolve (and complete box) bandwagon. We want everyone on this! Check out that gorgeous box art by @salvaterra.bsky.social!
You'd think I would be introspective after FIVE YEARS, but nope. I'm just thirsty for more people to play Arium. Special once in 5 years deals incoming!
