My first failed project in over twenty. Was bound to happen at some point. I'm working on a blog post addressing this, about how to get back on the horse and move on after a failure.

Welcome to the third news roundup in September. I don't usually promote works that have been released in the past, but would like to make an exception. Davide Quatrini reached out to me a few weeks ago (sorry this is late), asking me to mention their work. They've released a half-dozen titles...

Well, the project wasn't going to fund, based on pledges thus far, so I've canceled it and revised the project to just include the workbook. The daily tear-away calendar really locked me into a high pledge goal, since I had to order a minimum of 1,000 units of those. My goal is to do the...

With the month half over we're plunging straight into fall here, and I'm seeing more and more horror-themed releases, which is only appropriate. One thing I'd like to mention for any publishers out there: I've mentioned before that I won't be promoting products that contain AI assets in any...

Welcome to the News Roundup for the second week in September. It's been another slow week for releases, but there are some goodies in here! Odds & Ents has released TTRPG Digital Notebook Pages, a collection of fourteen player-facing pages designed for the players who maybe aren't the best...

I'm getting ready to launch my next project and have just set the prelaunch Kickstarter page to live. It's going to be a daily wilderness hex calendar, akin to a "word of the day" calendar, except with a new hex, complete with a hook, encounter, or feature, for each day. As part of the project...

We're into September already, and beginning the race towards the end of the year. Sabre Games is having a Labor Day sale, ending tonight, with everything in store 15% off with the code LaborDay2025. Rise up Comus recently released the incredibly well recieved and difficult to get in stock...

Last week was a little light on releases, I'm assuming because the kids are heading back to school and summer is winding down. However, there's still some interesting releases (I think) that I've included. Liminal Horror is an, I think, oft-overlooked gem of a system, but there is a Liminal...

Let's jump right in and see what's new, shall we? BlueMountainBooks has released a free hexcrawl on itch, inspired by Luke Gearing's Wolves Upon the Coast. At the Base of Blue Mountain includes seven dungeons, nearly sixty hexes, and more. Ventis was an entry in the Vaarn Summer jam, and is a...

It's the second Monday in August. GenCon is over, and here in the States kids are getting ready to head back to school. New releases seem pretty light this week, but let's see what we can cover. I mentioned a new game called Dungeons of Galora a few months back; there's now a free version...

I'm back after a week off, and I'm sure a number of readers are waking up bleary-eyed this morning after a long weekend at GenCon. Looks like Shadowdark (deservedly) cleaned up at the Ennies. I'd also like to call attention to: Eat the Reich. Hexcrawl Toolbox. Cloud Empress (sadly, we're out...

Welcome everyone to the fourth news roundup for July. I will be on vacation the next week, so there will be no Roundup then. I hope everyone has a great couple of weeks, and I'll catch everyone for August 5th's review. As I'm writing this I realized I'd like to make a clarification about how I...

I don't know about where you are, but it is hot here as I'm writing this: close to 100 degrees F. Great weather to stay inside, under a ceiling fan or in air conditioning, and check out some new OSR and indie releases, which, to be honest, are still a bit light this week. It's something I've...

Welcome to the second news Roundup in July. SabreCon2024 is officially over, and it was both tiring and a lot of fun. It is perhaps good that the last week was light on new releases. No doubt the long holiday weekend in the US had a lot to do with it. Anyway, it'll be a short Roundup this week...

Welcome to the first Roundup of July. This is going to be on the shortish side: we've got some illness in the family and work kind of exploded on me last week. The big news, gaming-wise, is that today is the one-year anniversary of Sabre Games opening. I've been plugging SabreCon2024, the...
