Print and see how it feels on paper. Do a preliminary layout for printing while you work with the text to get a feel for how much space the text fills. Good enough is good enough here. Then print and review on paper after having stepped away from the text for some time. Only after one or more...

Compared to US, especially vegetables are cheaper. Grocery shopping healthy ingredients and cooking dinner at home beats eating out by far both in price and quality. Alcohol you get at Systembolaget and is more expensive than what you see in the US. Soda, depending on brand, is likely more...

At this point I write in Pages. Good to have a feel for how the text flow on the pages. Let's continue in PM.

Great work of art is never finished, just abandoned ;) Both sessions were fun. I'm tweaking to make it easier to run for someone else and to balance the choice on a knife edge for all players.

I had a second play through of The City in Malmö last weekend. Here is a short recap plus a little more about how the game works. https://thoughtfuldane.com/2025/01/25/the-city-what-we-do-to-fit-in/

Classic case of “plausible, hard to verify”. If it said the opposite and it was true, it would be noteworthy. DriveThruRPG doesn’t publish sales statistics as open data as far as I can see.

I use Pages on Mac, it does a decent job and better than Google Docs and Word IMHO. Make a nice front page (I use GIMP for image editing). Have an external editor. Follow basic layout advice (60-70 characters per line, line spacing at least 1.2), keep it simple and you will be fine.

It’s easy to make a small fortune on RPGs. You just need to start with a big fortune.

Jeg er på men det skal selvfølgelig være en anmeldelse på dansk inspireret af en Wikipedia side fra en af vores skandinaviske frænder.

This essay by Jason Morningstar has a great example that shows how explicit scene framing works. https://www.patreon.com/posts/116645883?utm_campaign=postshare_fan

I recognise the feeling, this tension from wanting to do well, both from myself as game master but also from players new to the hobby. Lowering expectations and trusting the game and the tools I've learned have helped me overcome my anxiety and to better enjoy playing. I have also with good...

Me: What did you do in school today? My daughter: Today we played dodge ball. We came second place. Me: Did you have fun? Did anyone get hurt? My daughter: Yes, I had fun. Nobody got hurt. Me: Then you won.

Thanks for the tip, my daughter was very happy to receive it as a gift. "This looks like something that I like!" she said. She is 9-soon-10 and likes to draw.

Merry Christmas everyone. Thanks for being such a nice place to hang around. No topic too obscure. Timely moderation when things grow heated. Let's appreciate what we have and keep it going in 2025.

Pelle the Conqueror TTRPG anyone?

Truth is there already exist plenty of great games inspired by Tintin (Troubleshooters), Agatha Christie (Brindlewood Bay), and likely others on the list. Slapping on 'Tintin' or 'Miss Marple' on the cover may help them sell better but will not make them better games. Cool though that you can...
