It's elementary, my dear possum!
Wishing a very happy Sunday to all of our trash animal friends. 🐀 The news is all good for this campaign to bring piles of garbage to TTRPG tables everywhere—since launching on Tuesday, we've blown past our first three stretch goals, and we're already in sight of the bigger version of Psychic Trash Detectives that we could make at $5000.
So, tell your friends and colleagues everywhere to dive into the dumpster along with us and help bring this next stretch goal to life! We're scoping an edition of Psychic Trash Detectives that adds on to the brilliant work of Brigitte Winter and A.V.Eerie by bringing in other trashy creatives. If we hit this goal, we'll be sourcing even more fiction, art, and example stories from the Scryptid Games extended universe to make this truly a storytelling game for people who love books.
The prospect of creating an even more collaborative version of this game has been so exciting for all five of us. As a publishing collective, we are committed to supporting not only our own game design work, but that of the artists, writers, and makers that we're connected with. This stretch goal will accomplish that in spades!
And speaking of making community as weird little varmints, we also wanted to share with you a couple of other zine campaigns happening right now. These excellent projects are the quality work of our friends and we'd love you to help lift them up along with us...
Zine Quest Projects We Love
In this apocalyptic TTRPG you play as epic heroes confronted with cataclysm. Instead of a traditional Game Master, this game uses a shared character sheet called The Wild to introduce catastrophes to our heroes the MOMENT they set foot in this magical wilderness. Here, the roleplaying isn't about avoiding disaster: it's about confronting its inevitability head on. Designer Mark Kennedy prototyped this game in Nat's Writing & Publishing RPGs class and has developed it into a deluxe zine featuring the art of Ben Fox.
Our friends at 9th Level Games are funding for this slick one-shot game where you play as birds who are professional con artists. There is a heist—a grand criminal job to steal some tasty tasty food. You may have beaks and feathers, but you are a professional that can pick locks, counterfeit credentials, hold jobs, and talk. We were tickled to learn that Pigeon's Eleven launched the same day as Psychic Trash Detectives! Animal TTRPG zines unite. 🪶
