For today's #Blaugust and #RPGaDay2026 post, the word is 'secret'. I discuss the reason why I have secrets of my TTRPG that I'm building from the ground up.

Day 3 of #Blaugust and #RPGaDay2026 consisted of the word Poise. Did my best at approaching it from a game dev lens since I'm building my own TTRPG from the ground up.

Psychedelic Visions, Streamlined Play: Indie TTRPGs Rethink the Dungeon Master's Craft

New indie tabletop games offer less preparation for game masters and players, focusing on quick immersion and unique psychedelic art.

#IndieTTRPG, #TabletopGaming, #GameMasterTips, #RPGArt, #TTRPGNews

New indie tabletop games are using psychedelic art, a big change from typical fantasy styles. This is like comparing a black and white drawing to a colorful, modern poster.

@robindlaws Fun with encumbrance rules? Coool! Something is in the air, mayhaps. Quinns and Thomas M were riffing for some minutes on a recent Yes Indie’d podcast this season: off of Mausritter and imagining future fun encumbrance rpg’s. #ttrpg #indiettrpg

Wrapped my first true-blue Blades campaign last night, after about 8 or 9 sessions. Enough time to get to get to Tier 1 and gain some serious territory, but I want to play more 🥺

Wnew! My first game session with a strong dash of live action role play in #yazebasbedandbreakfast . I assisted as concierge and we did the laundry washing chapter three. The wash loads were the clock-four quarters ticked a third clock on the dryer and a full dryer filled half a hamper. Successful coin tosses of all heads (w/ increasing amounts of coins) gave a tick on those tracks for the wash.

We continue with another chapter next month.

The Digosfrag haunts sites of decay—derelict labs and silent medical ruins. Amidst the rust, it mimics a pristine, over-engineered writing instrument, its mechanical complexity suggesting obsessive craftsmanship. This alien artifact is a grim testament to forgotten origins, masking a grotesque purpose beneath its polished shell.

What mind designs such precision, only for it to be so darkly repurposed?

You are superpowered enemies. You also have a lot of romantic tension between you. Neither of you knows what to do about it.

Heart's Unrivaled is a 2-player romance #TTRPG centered on an enemies-to-lovers relationship between hero and villain.
