"Unlike you snowflakes I'm not so easily upset" > proceeds to get upset at the Oliva Hill Rule 😹 If the language of the Olivia Hill Rule upsets you, that's on you. Sounds like you have some personal growth to do, maybe put down the games, pick up a book, develop some enpathy and try listening to a woman for a change. Good luck!

Thanks but my games probably aren't for you if you think the Olivia Hill rule is radical idiocy, it's just basic human compassion. Remember when you hear the phrase 'woke agenda' just replace it 'human rights' Turns out trans folk like myself, and other marginalized groups just want to live their lives in peace. How radical.

OIL is a slick little one page dungeon crawling TTRPG, simple to set up and play, it manages to give a good balance of flavor with plenty of room for your own creativity. 5/5 Stars

Such a rad little system, excited for the Jam, just a heads up that the invite link for the Discord  is expired!

Another banger from Trollish Deliver Games, stripping back the mechanics to a simple 2d6 and instead leaning in to the shared fiction. Favorite line: "Either way, they players begin interacting with the world of shared imagination. This is literal magic." Beautiful work as always 🤘🙏🤘

Hey Ray, thanks for creating the Oracle! It's been a huge help when I get stuck writing. In fact, some folks asked about how I use it so I wrote a blog post about the process I use. Thanks again for such an inspiring tool!  https://ykmcglinchey.blogspot.com/2024/02/using-solo-rpg-tools-for-creative.html

Simple and elegant system for running epic weird word and sorcery games, coupled with fantastic advice for the GM. 5/5 Stars

Feels like an early 200's arcade game,, great game!

This is a fantastic premise, and the execution is excellent! To elevate it even further, I'd suggest adding an "Example of Play" section. This could detail how a typical day unfolds, giving readers a deeper understanding of the game's mechanics and engaging them further.

Question about converting the B/X Bestiary for use with Heartseeker. AC seems straight forward, B/X uses Descending AC, this is Ascending so just subtract the B/X AC from 20 and call it a day (B/X Goblin is AC 6, you have AC 14 so this seems right)
Converting the Save line is what's throwing me off though. Using the B/X Goblin we have D14 W15 P16 B17 S18 (NH), whereas Heartseeker has P11 M8 A10 for its Goblin and I'm honestly not sure how to arrive at that.

Submissions are open until January 13! And if you're a few days past that (or reading this far in the future) and would like your game added retroactively, just let me know and we can make it so 🤘

Thank you so much! This plugin coupled with Aerosys' suite would be a killer combo for making roguelikes in RMMV. 

I am having conflicts with this plugin and the RPGMaker Random Maps & Rogue-Like Suite by Aerosys in that sometimes dungeon exits will not spawn. I'm supposing the conflict arises in the way this plugin handles events or the way the Roguelike Suite spawns the events on the map.

I was wanting to make a dungeon... err dangerous sector for WORMHOLE + FABLE, but I'm a bit stuck on figuring out how to stat NPCs as PCs starting Skill/Stamina/Luck varies so greatly. I was thinking maybe something a little like this but wasn't sure if my math was decent, figured asking the creator was a good way to go!

NPC SKILL/Stamina/DMG  Guidelines
Easy: 8/6/d4+1 Moderate: 10/12/d8 Hard: 12/16+/d12

Would love to see this expanded, a bit sad its so short, lots of promise here!

There's a game jam for games in the FF family, looks like I need to finish this dungeon up 🤘https://itch.io/jam/skill-stam-fam-jam

Affirmations & Encouragements For TTRPG Creators

Looking forward to this!

Thank you so much! 

I really dig Fighting Fantasy inspired games, Gorgon Rot stands out with its flavor. It even inspired me to write a Dungeon Synth/Metal track for a Gutted by Gorgon Rot hexcrawl  🤘 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fCEsSMhikPNks6-CyC1PLWmwEzwxCg2F/view?usp=shari...

It happens at the best of times, thanks for making this awesome game. I loved 40k when I was younger and played a lot with a friend but never could afford to get into the hobby. Games like this (and paper minis!) helps lower the accessibility threshold.

Just a heads up that the most recent upload switched these files for the Dead Gods Unholy Scavengers files.

Its on the to-do list! However for now you can find the Weapon Specialties and the Schools of Magic at Michael's blog, http://lizardmandiaries.blogspot.com/2019/08/the-collected-infinigrad-and-guild-...

Looking forward to the 2nd Edition, really vibing with what's already there. 

SWORD DREAM - A backronym for Second Wave Of Roleplaying Design - DIY Rules Everything Around Me, SWORD DREAM, or *DREAM for short, is a term and social media hashtag for a movement of designing role-playing games (RPGs) with a focus on tolerance, accessibility, and diversity.

While there is no official standard, participants have adopted the following principles:

• Stands against hate & prejudice in all forms.
• Works to be radically inclusive.
• Encourages the use of sensible tools for communication and consent.
• Opposes harassment and strives for non-toxic discourse.
• Values creators & their work.
• Values experimentation in game design & worldbuilding.
• Isn't defined by, but is interested in: anti-canons, emergent story, generative worlds, kitbashing, non-violent play options, and more.
• There is no one *DREAM. Anyone who commits to these principles is *DREAMing .

Simply put my Sworddream was a Grimdark RPG with the crypto-fascist elements stripped and replaced with Gray Vs Grey morality.  "Grimdark Swordream" is tongue-in-cheek, and a way to discourage fascists from attempting to co-opt the game.   

Hi everyone, I'm Yuri and I'll be collaborating with Micahel Raston (of Lizard Man Games) on an adventure for the jam. Really love the weirdhope vibe of Eco MoFos, excited to be taking part in this!

Oh, I didn't see it when I looked earlier, but thank you!

Hello, I would like to nominate my rules light dark fantasy adventure game Blood Reign  (https://cosmic-sorcery-society.itch.io/blood-reign-a-grimdark-sword-dream-rpg) for the “What if there was a game like D&D but not by a Racist Corp” list. Its an Into The Odd-ish Soulslike take on WHFRP, my SWORD DREAM was to strip out the crypto-fascist elements that have snuck into the WH universe and have a truly Grimdark, Grey Vs Gray sort of world.

It unfortunately still leads to to an iCloud link, the other two booklets are great!

Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it! I was mildly shocked when Jason added it to the 24XX collection but I suppose the DNA shines through ^_^

I used the 24XX SRD template so it does indeed all fit on a page, back page is just the cover art and an NPC generator :)

Also having this issue when attempting to joad a JSON from donjon.

There also appears to be an issue with importing json's from watabou's One Page Dungeon generator, it imports the OPD in at the program's default  map size of 42 x42 which causes the grid to be improperly sized and misaligned. 

Cute  katamari-like game, managed to launch myself outside of the game world, not sure that is a function that is intended. 

Cute and interesting adventure, with some fun challenges along the way. Interesting concept game play wise, I like the way it inverts some standard RPG tropes. Keep up the great work!

This was cute and engaging!
