🌱, 📖, and 🌺? :3
🌱 An unreleased/not-yet-crowdfunding game I’m looking forward to.
Okay, so my number one answer is REDACTED, and I can't actually talk about it yet. But, of some of the games I've recently backed or am waiting to see launch;
Deathmatch Island looks so slick. I've been following along on the graphical development that the creator's been sharing on twitter for a long while now, and I'm super excited to eventually try it out (semi-related, but Tim Denee, the creator, has also been sharing sneak peeks of a Blades '68 alternate setting that looks equally slick). I think Tim has a tumblr here, but I am blanking on the url...
Tumblr media
A second close runner up is Ave Nox from @feralindiecharlie. Everything Charlie does absolutely shreds, so I cannot wait to see this megadungeon.
Tumblr media
📖 My favorite class or playbook from a game.
The Hungry from Apocalypse Keys by @temporalhiccup! All the playbooks from AK are killer (cannot wait for people to get their hands on the stretch goal playbooks too, they rule), but I had an especially fun time playing the Hungry.
Tumblr media
One thing that's so cool about the AK playbooks is how flexible they are in allowing so many different concepts and takes on the same idea. Like, the Hungry could easily be a classic vampire, but I played a monster inspired by Sandman's Corinthian. He was an ancient nightmare that ate other dreams. The Hungry is all about grappling with this terrible power; fighting against it, giving into it. It's so much fun sometimes being truly wretched 😌
You can check out a this video to see me play the Hungry if you're curious;

🌺 A game with stunning layout or visual design.
Orbital Blues from @soulmuppet! Both layout and visual design are stellar. Pun intended. Lone Archivist (who has incredible graphical assets you can pick up on itch) did the layout, and Josh Clark did the art. Together, art and layout absolutely sells the vibe of the game. A dusty, kind of lonely, space western. I'm just gonna let a couple of spreads do the talking now.

New Game Lab post! Today I discuss Deathmatch Island from Old Dog Games and Evil Hat, and how the "competitive" genre of TTRPGs gives a new twist to the play-to-lose style of storytelling games that I love. Check it out on my Substack Now!

Congratulations [Competitor 359]. You have been selected to participate in Deathmatch Island. Winning will mean fame, freedom, and unlimited wealth. You may be experiencing some confusion and memory loss. This is normal following [REDACTED]. It is important that you do not panic.
Deathmatch Island is a fast-paced roleplaying game about a deadly game show set on a chain of mysterious islands. Armed only with their hazy memories and matching uniforms, the players compete in challenges to satisfy the demands of Production.
If you're a fan of Squid Game, Survivor, Lost, Battle Royale, Control, The Hunger Games, corporate dystopia, or messed up Reality TV, you're going to enjoy Deathmatch Island.

Round 3 Starboard: Long John [Silver] (Muppet Treasure Island) vs [Long] John Silver (Black Sails)
Tumblr media
They're both accomplished liars and schemers, though Long John Silver (Muppet Treasure Island) only had to pull one over Smollett and Mr. Arrow, whereas John Silver (Black Sails) was up against Flint. John Silver (Black Sails) has more existential issues, but a fantastic survival instinct. Long John (Muppet Treasure Island) lost a sword fight to a frog, but he can turn any situation into a song and dance number. John Silver (Black Sails) stomped a man's head in with a metal leg. Long John (Muppets) put the fear of god into an army of muppets.
The pirates MAY use any special skills or equipment they possess. They may NOT call on any friends or creatures to assist them. For the sake of this tournament, all pirates CAN be killed and cannot come back to life during the fight. Remember, this isn't about favorites, this is about combat power. Reblog to throw a vegetable at the opponent. Deathmatch masterpost here.

walking into my rhodes island office, hanging up my coat, pushing W and Ines off my desk, wiping off the blood, and opening a message from Kal that says 'kill yourself' and then is followed by 'ignore that last message'. I nod thoughtfully and ignore that last message. I take a sip of my coffee. It's Muelsyse. I spit her out into the sink. I open the cabinet and get a new mug. Ho'olheyak is in the cabinet. I sit down at my desk and respond affirmatively to the email from Platnium asking me if Gravel has been bothering me. (This gets them into a subtext filled deathmatch, which is enrichment in their enclosure.) I respond to Amiya's last cute text emoji with a ':P', which she likes within 10 seconds. I clock out. I get a beer with Hoederer and Pallas. They get into a poetry battle in 3 different languages. 5 minutes of downtime. 6 hours of brooding on the landship considering the burden of the world (in the rain.) Amiya shows up with an umbrella eventually. She asks me how my day was. I say: good.

Not D&D, I do apologize, but I'm crowdfunding my first full TTRPG next month and you might be interested.
Tumblr media
It's called Deathmatch Island and it's inspired, obviously, by Squid Game and Battle Royale, but also mystery box shows like LOST and Severance. It gets really weird, it's a lot of fun.
Tumblr media
The graphic design is all swiss grids, corporate horror helvetica, etc.
Follow along here!

I want Mihawk to drop by the Thousand Sunny one day to check up on how Zoro is doing, catch him up on what Perona has been up to etc. He'd make intense eye contact with Luffy for ten seconds, they'd both nod and just like that he's a guest and staying for dinner.
Cut to the real reason he stopped by, which is that Zoro spent two years being markedly unenthusiastic for Mihawk's mediocre cooking. He's curious just how good the Strawhat chef is, particularly since apparently he's also Zoro's designated rival. He's not a swordsman, so Mihawk is somewhat dubious, but he knows how important a good rival is for personal growth.
Mihawk: 6'6", tits OUT, fierce gaze: meets Sanji and immediately reprimands Zoro for not mentioning that he's also gorgeous (Is that a silk tie? This pirate chef is wearing a tailored suit and tie at 5 o'clock on an unremarkable Tuesday? Finally, someone with a sense of style). There might be a hand kiss in there, along with a gift of a bottle of excellent wine from his own vineyard-did he mention he has his own vineyards? ("It's overrun with feral attack monkeys, Mihawk, it's not impressive!") - as a thank you for the hospitality.
After one of the finest dinners he's ever eaten - and bearing witness to the impeccable display of blade mastery that went into preparing it (his hands and knives are for cooking only, never fighting-exquisite) - Mihawk is giving serious thought to declaring his formal intention to pursue a courtship and wondering if his and Zoro's impending deathmatch would scuttle his chances. He's calculating tracts of land in his head, wondering if he should raze a few islands to procure rare spices as allurements. Is that still the fashion for wooing? Is he going to have to get advice from Perona?
Meanwhile Sanji is blushing to the roots of his hair and a bit tongue-tied, because again, fierce gaze. Kicking Mihawk in the face seems like a poor life choice but also the compliments and attention are weirdly flattering? Zoro is bewildered and enraged like a toddler who wasn't playing with that toy but certainly doesn't want someone else to take it. It translates into a lot of passionate, silent arguments about whose fault this is and what to do about it whenever Mihawk's attention is elsewhere.
The rest of the crew are living their best lives trying not to die laughing while watching what is essentially a live-action telenovela play out in front of them over dessert. Brook is playing an accompaniment.

hey quick question what in the world is going on over in qsmp? (you can infodump all you want to if you'd like)
okay so in recent news from the Island:
resident wet cat skeleton man came back from getting extremely lost to his loving husband and son
an emo dude’s AI-based alter is coming back from the Code Dimension and is sending cryptic messages in binary
french cucumber warrior has picked a fight with a scary binary code monster because he stole its overpowered shield and they’re gonna have a deathmatch about an hour from now
the resident sad genderfluid detective whose entire family went missing under mysterious circumstances is turning into one of the said scary code monsters because the Unethical Island Mystery Government fucked up his parasite removal surgery really badly
a french-speaking swiss duck woman found out she was actually raised by said Unethical Island Mystery Government as a child but escaped
unethical island mystery government does trauma-inducing experiments on a duck man, leaving him unable to read and with severe amnesia
New people have arrived! They were frozen in ice after breaking out of a prison!
amogus

Production prides itself on offering an equal deathmatch experience to every single competitor. Racism, sexism, ableism, and other bigotries will not be tolerated. It is important that all competitors can kill and die without discrimination.

Round 1, Port: LeChuck (Monkey Island) vs Jonny D'Ville (The Mechanisms)
Tumblr media
Jonny D'Ville has healing powers, enjoys murders, and has committed every possible crime. But LeChuck is both a zombie and a pirate. For the sake of this poll, either of them can be killed. But the question is: who would be?
[the pirates MAY use any special skills or equipment they possess. They may NOT call on any friends or creatures to assist them. For the sake of this tournament, all pirates CAN be killed and cannot come back to life during the fight. Deathmatch masterpost Here]
