Monthlyish Games
Hey y'all! I'm Dave, a San Antonio-based TTRPG designer & GM. The games I design tend to be rules-lite (usually one page, sometimes two) and run the gamut from light and goofy to dark and heavy. I also enjoy taking on Game Jams here on itch.io and meeting fellow game designers!
If you like what you see here, consider clicking the link above and subscribing to my Patreon! The base membership is and always will be free, but if you want early access to paid games, bonus content, and a monthly message/rant about the games I release each month, consider subscribing as a Friend of Dave. Hope to see you there!
