Greetings zinesters!

The grand month of zines continues apace. I hope you've found time to look through all of the great projects here on Backerkit and elsewhere, this is always an exciting time of the year for indie roleplaying enjoyers like me (and I assume, you).

Thanks to all of the backers, The Endtimes Trilogy is on its way to funding successfully, but we're not there yet! If you're reading this, please share the campaign on social media or with the storygame sickos in your life that might enjoy my fun little games. 

The first of the in-depth overviews of the three games is here! In this video, I go through all the different components of Into A Warm Sun and explain how it's played at the table. It should give you a good idea of how this game will feel when you play it.

Here's a completely non-exhaustive list of other pojects you should check out! All month you'll find cool zine projects from every corner of the indie rpg scene. 

Rise, Wizards! & All's Fair - most of my backers have already backed this, but if you haven't yet you should take a look! These are two great looking games, one about wizard hubris & another about world-saving intimacy. If you back both of our projects, you'll get a sixth game designed by Dillin, Robin, and me where you'll create the backstory of some absurd supervillain!

Veritable Tales of Folly in the Realm - This is a party game by Pidj Sorenson, who always delivers something exciting & novel during zine month. This one's a collection of medieval minigames that culminate in the titular Veritable Tales.

Axolotl With A Gun - In this one, you're an axolotl and you have a gun. You have to defeat the horrors that are ruining the world by amassing a huge pile of d6s. If things go wrong, don't worry: the game is coin-operated, so you can pop a coin into the machine to keep going.

GOBZ - Spencer Campbell is embracing the zine quest spirit with a fun little game about goblin battles. You'll be flicking dice and coins around your table and just overall having a great time with the funny lil guys you can find in the zine.

Hello everybody! Big thanks to everybody who has backed so far, we're halfway to making the Endtimes Trilogy a reality. Please share the campaign with anyone you think might like it: drop it into discords, share it on bluesky, or post it anywhere else you know that there are fans of weird RPGs. With your help we can get these games funded and one step closer to print!

This coming week, I'll be recording a little overview video of each of the games and posting them here as updates. Head over to the poll to let me know which game I should talk about first.

Tomorrow I'll be briefly reviving the Tabletop Call-In Show over at twitch.tv/adamebell. I'm going to hop on and browse other zine month projects while taking calls (via discord) from anybody who wants to pop in & chat. I hope you'll stop by!
