My time machine from the wonderful @therewillbegame is at it again with one that deserves more praise than it gets. Good Dog, Bad Zombie @MakeBigThings is a game about dogs rescuing humans during an apocalypse And my Gipsy takes a starring role! buff.ly/2FOPM4J

Last night I played Damn the Man, Save the Music by @MakeBigThings. Folks, it was good. Really, really good. And the thing it reminded me is that RPGs can just be about fun.

This setting was so good to illustrate too.
Replying to @qh_murphy
Anyway, I love the setting and I love Noirlandia! You should check out the game. The Quickstarts for it are here: makebigthings.com/noirlandia…

Which brings me to the second setting I want to talk about: "Where the Old Souls Go" for the @MakeBigThings game Noirlandia. I wrote in when we were talking again about black pain and death. I wrote a setting where no one really died.

When I am making games and settings explicitly centering blackness, I spend a lot of time framing it so that the forces of oppression that besiege us everyday don't get a voice --they've already had their say. I want my stories to have a better set of problems.

I am trying to get better about talking about things I have made. The first is a short form larp I wrote that takes place at the Hotel Theresa, a hub of the Harlem renaissance. It's called "What a Fight!" and takes place after Joe Louis knocked out Max Schmeling in a rematch
