My USA friends and customers; be aware that the combination of tariffs and the removal of the de minimis exemption means that many international publishers will have a hard time sending you games from outside of the country. The best way to get your hands on these games is to buy copies already stateside such as those in your FLGS, or from distributors like @ipr@dice.camp https://www.indiepressrevolution.com/xcart/

Running a kickstarter during a global trade war, after my former social media network was nuked by Musk, is rough. I appreciate any help in spreading the word about my #Kickstarter for my #IndieRPG Songfall Survivors https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/Jagash/songfall-survivors?ref=a3zvdt

AI content in search results is effectively giving the search engine cancer. Rather than the desired information it wastes resources with unwanted, resource-draining bloat that fails to serve the organism.

A new episode of the #RPGDesignPanelcast is up featuring @megueyb@dice.camp @lumpley@dice.camp discussing Powered by the Apocalypse games in 2023. It's fabulous and worth a listen.

I just finished devouring "Stealing the Throne" by the excellent @ickbat@dice.camp and it meets his usual high standards of quality game design. Let's unpack this giant mecha, shall we?

I think we ought to talk about Lumberjills, by the Mo Turkington of Unruly Designs. She led War Birds project, an award-winning anthology of games about women in World War II.
If you take a look at the project at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/unrulydesigns/lumberjills-a-war-birds-game you will see that the kickstarter campaign page is brilliant. (THREAD)
