My project is progressing much slower than I anticipated. But I actually made some progress and slowly, very slowly the crunch part of the game is coming together. Astronauts will use a simple...
Fellow RPG blogger Noisms came up with a list of subjects RPG bloggers usually don’t write about. Alas I was oblivious to the existence of said blog until I read an article posted...
Yesterday I finally got my Kindle. For quite a while I have been pondering whether I should buy one or not. Last August I bought an iPad and actually thought it might double...

Yesterday Crafty Games released its Mistborn Adventure Game Primer on DriveThruRPG for free. I have to admit I haven’t followed the development of the Mistborn Adventure Game at all. I haven’t heard of...
