This community EMS force network treats over 730,000 incidents per year, in Israel, as they wait for ambulances and medical attention. Eli’s vision is to bring this life-saving model across the world.

BXP 6×11 – Monica and Heather Consider Ways to Keep Players Playing 41:32

منذ 2 years41:32

41:32

Hello Bonus Babies, I am so sorry for the huge delay – when it rains it pours. But here we are with the penultimate episode of Season Six! Today Monica gets together with Heather (her wife) to discuss one of their mutually shared core principles of game design: participation makes the game. If you remove players from play, you are denying them the chance to experience your game. We break down what this means as well as provide good and bad examples of designing for character creation, incapacitation, elimination, and replacement. We also discuss constructive self-entertainment vs. disruptive behavior and techniques for different designs and different styles of play. In your patron cut you’ll also hear: The mystery of the brown fluff Live Morgana Updates Live Julia Updates Important links from the show: Fabula Ultima : https://www.needgames.it/fabula-ultima-en/ “Bluebeard’s Bride AP” on The Story Told RPG Podcast : https://thestorytold.libsyn.com/bluebeards-bride-ap Heather’s socials: @Snoutopus on Twitter and Bluesky @plague-of-frog on Tumblr https://www.tumblr.com/plague-of-frog…

منذ 2 years40:10

Hello Bonus Babies, Today I’m joined by friend and colleague Alex Guerrero to discuss how video games utilize narrative and setting design to create a sense of wonder and mystery – and how you can bring that to the table in your own tabletop RPGs! We discuss: Good writing and pacing of lore Creating and fostering mystery while running games Supporting an action-RPG feel at the table Using techniques from GMless gaming Integrating social influence into games Building lore for your game using other games Also discussed in the extended cut : Monica’s favorite GM sleight-of-hand and the judicious handling of “yes, but” Behind the scenes in trying to close the show WARNING: SPOILERS FOR GENSHIN IMPACT FROM 15:32 to 19:05.

Hello Bonus Babies, Today Monica is joined by the hosts of the Malifaux podcast, Steampowered Scoundrels, to have a lively discussion about being small content creators in a niche field, being the microest of micro celebrities, having relationships with tabletop game designers, and a lot, and I really mean a lot, of talk about Malifaux. Don’t worry I also bring up Exalted at least once.

Hello Bonus Babies, Today Monica is joined by freelance author and designer, MJ Monleon, to discuss the ins, outs, and pitfalls of designing a competitive game. We focus mostly on traditional games like tabletop RPGs and card or board games and then wander off into the weeds of some of our favorite video games. We start off strong, then get very distracted. Expect the full strength ADHD experience: hand clapping, table slapping, chair squeaking and my inability to hold still and speak directly into the mic. If any of that is a deal breaker for you, skip this one.

We talk about what you need to consider as a designer and break down how you can avoid common pitfalls. We also cite a handful of excellent games you can try that use their resources extremely well.
