@vullinius.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialMy game (Hag Race) and many other wonderful indie ttrpgs are part of this bundle. The collective has been so encouraging to me as I work on games and I'm so happy to have joined.

@filcieplak.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialHey, we did it! We hit our current goal for our awesome bundle. Thanks to everyone who's checked it out! Let's keep this train going and hit our next goal. There's still 18 days left to grab this collection of cool #TTRPG games if you haven't. Ok, bye!
@applefordhearth.itch.ioReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialCheck out this selection of some lovely solo or solo-friendly games!
Thank you to @whimsymachine.bsky.social for organizing the jam and this bundle.
@whimsymachine.bsky.socialFor #FollowFriday (is that still a thing?), it would be super awesome if you went to this bundle page, opened contributor's profiles, and gave them follows. If you get the bundle too, that'd be amazing, but putting indie creators on your radar is so immensely helpful.

@whimsymachine.bsky.socialIt's been so cool seeing Kasey work on this one. I'm super excited to spend some quality time with Awakened Applewood.
@magathachristie.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialBoard To Death is the Brindlewood Bay mystery of dreams, made by @leigheldridge.bsky.social. Clue meets Agatha Christie meets Glass Onion in this module where the Mavens are invited to a secluded island but ultimately end up trying to solve a murder instead!
@magathachristie.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.social@whimsymachine.bsky.social has gamified one of my favorite parts of the eternally popular TTRPG, and the outcome is Everyone Roll A Perception Check. Minimalist, narrative game design gets at the heart of why we engage with ttrpg encounters, and what the "reveal" offers us.
@magathachristie.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialI love a Honey Heist hack, and this one by @dorianblackwood.bsky.social is no exception. NOT ONLY do you get otter puns galore, but you also get some really delightful mechanics. A team of otters must work to keep the Clam Incident a secret, by order of the queen...or else!
@magathachristie.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialAwakened Applewood by @applefordhearth.itch.io is a solo journaling game. Play as a sacred dragon statue trying to explore and understand the world & what it means to be sentient. The townsfolk around can't give you all the answers, but you can learn from them anyway.
@magathachristie.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialIt's the TTRPG Collective's 3rd Anniversary! This phenomenal discord server is where I've found hype, feedback, friendship...the list goes on and on!
You can support us by buying our games - all the projects in this $20 bundle were made possible by this beautiful community.
@kellywhyte.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.social@whimsymachine.bsky.socialI posted a devlog for (Everyone Roll A) Perception Check, which is currently in the very cool TTRPG Collective Anniversary Bundle. @jayeeis.bsky.social ran some super helpful playtests of the new version, and this game is turning into something very exciting.

@drakettrpg.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialSome amazing little finds in this bundle. So far, my group have played as slimes, dragon spirits and dinosaur zoo keepers and there’s still another 45 to try! So proud of the #TTRPG Collective Community for putting this together.
@magathachristie.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialOn Soaring Wings is a beautiful, introspective journaling game by @joieyong.bsky.social where you, as a postal agent for an Avian Kingdom, fly above the land and pass the time with the power of storytelling. It is anchored in creative exploration, and bonus, it's GORGEOUS.
@magathachristie.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialAs you can see from a comment I left on this game 2 years ago, "EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS DELIGHTS MY SOUL." @laughinglarkgames.bsky.social made a Normal Game that is about Very Real Horses. It is definitely NOT about two people pretending to be a horse. Who told you that???
@hammpod.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialI'm so glad to have found the TTRPG Collective! I may not be very active these days, but I've met so many amazing people through their discord! So yanno, go check out this awesome bundle (and not just because I'm a part of it!)
@dorianblackwood.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialCheck this one out gang! The TTRPG collective are a very welcoming bunch. They’ve been so lovely to talk to, shared great tips, as well as prompts that have gotten me rethinking my writing and design habits, and just are wonderful folks all around. I’ve even got my own lil 1-pager in there!
@whimsymachine.bsky.socialWe're celebrating the TTRPG Collective's 3rd anniversary with a showcase bundle of 40+ projects that could only be made with the support of a community. The creativity and skill of these folks is mind-blowing!

@whimsymachine.bsky.socialThat's so sweet that you remembered this game! I think it's been updated at least once, but I'd love to give it some TLC once day. I hope your move goes well and that your new place has just the right amount of fairies and sprites.
@leigheldridge.bsky.socialReposted by @whimsymachine.bsky.socialThe second one is my first published Brindlewood Bay mystery, based on the Clue boardgame. I wrote it for the Board Games Reimagined Jam hosted by @whimsymachine.bsky.social. Several collective members helped hone the themes and provided helpful feedback. leigheldridge.itch.io/board-to-dea...
