Hey folks!

Before it goes dark, here, I want to invite folks to a new Discord server for WTP that Jacob Hilker was nice enough to create for us.

In that space, you can discuss WTP games, chat directly with folks involved in making and playing them, and discuss other relevant, gaming-related things. The space is new so we’re still trying it out, so feel free to give us any advice you have for it, as well.

Here’s the link:

Hope to see you there, friends!

Hey folks! With the G+ end quickly approaching, let me fill you in!

1) I will try to post in the WTP Facebook page a bit more. Please come join us over there, if you have an account: https://www.facebook.com/Wheel-Tree-Press-255984057915733/

2) I just plain am not that into Twitter, so I probably won’t be posting TOO much over there on the WTP account. Having said that, I’ll do my best to post important news and updates there: https://twitter.com/WheelTreePress

3) I kinda want to start up a WTP Discord. I might poll folks on the FB group on this.

Please follow us on those other platforms if you’d like to keep up on us!

I’ll miss being able to communicate with people here. Thanks for being cool and following us, here.

Hey friends of the Wheel Tree!

I have put together a short, quickstart playtest document for my climate-change game Under the Glare of a Vengeful Sky.

It’s a game about people in a near future where society is slowly disintegrating due to climate change making their way from their flooding city to a settlement on higher ground they’ve heard is safer.

If you’re interested in taking a look at some abbreviated rules for the game, or doing a quick one-shot playtest of some rules, either post affirmatively here, or drop me a hangout message.

Thanks!

Ooooooooooh!

Gencon wrap up.

I ran 3(!) games of SCUP that all managed to go pretty well, including for a number of people who hadn’t played/heard of the game.

I playtested two new games:

1) A tabletop game called Under the Glare of a Vengeful Sun, about a group of people escaping a city flooding due to climate change.

2) A LARP called Gone, about someone cleaning out the belongings of someone who has passed away or left.

Both playtests went pretty well, especially the one for Gone, and I got some useful feedback.

All in all, not too shabby.

The IGDN booth (booth #2545) at Gencon now has SCUP books defaced with my signature, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Just want to make sure people saw this!
