Hi, I'm Colin (he/him). I'm a Canadian #TTRPG designer living in the North of England. I make games like #Runecairn, #WeDealInLead, and #MidnightOfTheCentury. I’m a film geek and I love horror films, spooky folklore, and exploring ancient ruins. 📩 colin@byodinsbeardrpg.com 🌐 byodinsbeardrpg.com

We’ve just launched the Kickstarter for Flowers Withered on the Stem. It’s a vampire family drama role-playing game, entirely card-based and pick-up-and-play. Pledge the Vampire tier and join us in our efforts to make this game a reality. www.kickstarter.com/projects/bla...

Stopped by Play Brew Middlesbrough on Sunday for some pizza and to peruse the small market. Found an amazing bookseller that had a load of odd, horny, esoteric, or unusual books so absolutely had to grab some.

5 days(-ish) left to take advantage of my October sale: itch.io/s/202936/tur... All the games, none of the physical storage space.

One year of the Weekly Rundown, unbelievable! I've been writing a weekly post for my Patreon since last October, covering what I'm working on, watching, reading, and playing. In honour of the anniversary, my latest post is free for everyone to read, member or not. www.patreon.com/ByOdinsBeard...

Reposting for the morning folks. Might be useful if you’re looking for a new(ish) Irish gaming con to check out!

Wrote up my recent visit to Ireland for @darecon.bsky.social 2026 as an attendee and, for the first time in years, a player. Thanks to @oldoakgames.bsky.social for running an amazing game and to @spongeonmaster.bsky.social for writing a fun scenario. byodinsbeardrpg.com/2026-10-26-d...

I wrote (not vibecoded!) a VST plugin for myself that does a really basic thing I couldn't find without cruft elsewhere: x0x drum sequencer that emits MIDI, no audio, to any sampler. It's deliberately low clutter; I hate multi-track grids. I'm usually bad at UI, but quite pleased with this one.

friends we're in the final 48 hours! the river is still hungry for tribute gamefound.com/en/projects/...

My first 5 TTRPGs, in the order I played them: 1. AD&D 2nd Edition 2. TMNT and Other Strangeness / Palladium 3. Marvel Superheroes 4. GURPS 5. D&D 3.5 This is going back a while, so the details are fuzzy around the first 4. Probably missing some.

The campaign is now over, and we’ve raised a whopping €250k! (Well, €249,930, but close enough.) From the very bottom of my heart, thank you all so so much. Ink Ribbon is a game I made for myself - I hoped other people would want to play it, but I never imagined we'd raise 1/4 of million euro. ❤️

THE END IS NIGH!!! The final hours of The 7th Order & Ritual Deck funding are here! We are a few backers away from our next stretch goal! Join us for the end! ttrpg.link/kcc 29/X

When I was 13 or 14, I worked as a beekeeper for one day. 8 hours of hard labour and I then I was stung on the neck. That was it for me.

We would love to make the lounge a safe space to attend by offering ffp3 masks to those who want them and running air purifiers - but transportable, decent purifiers are a bit out of our budget 😅 We got a Kofi goal for these bits and if you can help us out, that'd be mega! ko-fi.com/finleyjinley...

being brave now,, Great news! The PoC Lounge WILL be back at Dragonmeet this year - Organised by myself and @lizzybutt.bsky.social! We'll have more info soon ✨ Our main goal was to start small & provide a space for poc to chill for a couple of hours during the con, and feel *safe* while doing so~

It's official: @donatobomb.bsky.social and I will be sitting down with Michael Dougherty this weekend at @brooklynhorror.bsky.social! We'll talk a little bit about TRICK 'R TREAT, a little bit about KRAMPUS, and maybe even work in some kaiju talk. brooklynhorror2026.eventive.org/films/6aa829...
