A detailed look into manufacturing and some impressive transparency from the folks at Earthborne 👏 props to the climate scientist @hstaudmyer for her breakdown and proud of my friend @Davilimap’s work on this game 🎉
It's not every day a climate scientist reviews your game 🙂 https://t.co/BlT7Xta8tI

All you need is a deck of cards and whatever tokens you have lying around to hunt with a pod of orcas, forage for tasty mushrooms, brave the swift rivers of the salmon run, and more.

Thanks to everyone for watching the stream. Verdict: @TabletopPG is a great alternative to @TabletopSim with a different mindset towards creating mods. A lot of great features, but a bit more of a learning curve than TTS but slightly easier to learn than @TabletopiaGames

I also just watched @afrozenpeach give Tabletop Playground a try on twitch; the end recommendation was that it was easier to set up a new game than Tabletopia.

On a personal note (this is less important to this conversation), as a straight white cis male it’s always difficult to comprehend that a human’s existence can be considered a bannable offense. I’ll continue to listen and support people outside of the mainstream.
