I appreciate it, actually! Parts & Rescue Station is tonnes of fun.

Thank you!

Ah! This is great. Clever use of the medium, full of difficult choices and tragic consequences.

Thank-you. I enjoyed the story, and I have a little validation for you, too: trifolds absolutely qualify as foldies. Lowkey I think they're the backbone of grab-and-go TTRPG adventures. Some of my favourite games fit on a trifold.
Have you seen Citizen Sleeper: Spindlejack? https://jump-over-the-age.itch.io/citizen-sleeper-spindlejack Trifolds are very much alive and well!

This is probably Katt’s best zungeon yet. Somewhat ironically, this dungeon, teeming with undead, feels lived in. I loved it so much I borrowed a character from it to put in one of my own projects as a little homage to a great bit of writing.

This adventure is for high-level characters. Ask yourself: is my little blorbo a badass who survived, like, the impossible? If yes, put them into this dungeon so they can walk into the butthole of a mimic and fight a dude who is basically a god without all the pesky drawbacks of responsibility.

How much changed between this version, and the version that was in the March 2025 Plus One Zine Club run? I'm looking to write an adventure for the system and want to make sure I've got the right PDF!

Hey! I liked your guide so much I made myself a hand-bound hardcover copy, because reference material that opens flat is twice as useful-- and this was pretty darn useful to begin with!
The layout is great. You ought to be proud.

had a good giggle with my kid (who plays a bit of Mausritter) because this was a really fun presentation. Love the conversational vibes. Super approachable

Ashamed to admit that reading this itch page was the moment I found out who Hannah Arendt is, and her name on the thumbnail is the entire reason I didn’t pick this up earlier.

It plays like Honey Heist. The rethemeing and subversion of a slapstick system to use it as an educational tool is incredible, by the way.

It LOOKS like Mork Borg.

There’s some discord happening between the expectations set from the base system, and the visual presentation of the game. That might be the point though. The critical choice in this game is relevant, here. 

I’ll be thinking about that for a while.

Roxi, I would absolutely love to see some pictures if you have the energy to spare. My deets are on the back cover of the book if you're not comfortable sharing them here!

what a gorgeous asset pack. These are so lovely they are almost serene, I can see these being VERY useful for a lot of folks.

Love the fact that the author went through on the itch page and listed the fonts that paired well enough with the templates to use in their previews/thumbnails. This sort of thing seems VERY useful to someone who is just getting started.

Hinokodo has put a lot of thought and work into these and they're all extremely colour-accessible, which I appreciate quite a bit.

If you need any help or have any questions, hit me up, my deets are on the last page. I can probably help and if the problem isn’t super duper unique I can put the solution in a future issue!

PIANO HINGE TABS! I’ve seen them. They’re absolutely brilliant.

It only takes five minutes to play a game, but you can play it over and over and it's still funny even over discord. Great work.

Ooh, this is interesting! It doesn't "lock" the same way the securely unsecured format does because there's no insert to keep the tab from slipping out of the zine, but if your cardstock is robust enough it'll pretty much stay where you want it. I'm gonna have to give this a shot!

48 entries were submitted before the jam closed at midnight last night. I’ve played some of them already and there are some really fun projects in here!!

For those of you who submitted after the 12 hour April Fool’s extension: I’m proud of you, especially. I know how tough that last minute crunch is. Good work.

The NASA engineer (my dad) won’t be reviewing these until Easter or slightly thereafter. If you are going to update your files— and you are absolutely welcome to update your files, this isn’t a ranked jam— try to do it before then.

Dad has asked me to make him his own Itch account so he can make comments on any noteworthy games. If you are one of his favourites he will offer to send you a custom bad moon patch, because he agreed to judge this thing if I made him a cool patch. I am also going to make a digital badge that you are welcome but not obliged to put on your winning game page.

I  am going to make a mission of reading through, playing, and commenting on/reviewing all of the submissions starting next week. I also have an art pack I’ll be dropping with the requests that were submitted. I’d start today but my kid is home sick for the week and he’s gonna need my attention.

If you didn’t get your submission in… don’t panic! This jam will be running annually. You can finish at your leisure and submit in December.

Once again, y’all are incredible. There are SO MANY good games submitted, it feels like Christmas.

GOD DAMN that's a tasty little zungeon

NO. WAIT. WHAT? WHAT?! WAIT?! This is incredible. The fact that you managed to get it all collected absolutely boggles my mind.

With fantastic use of Tania's art, this is perhaps Katt's tightest dungeon yet. Compact enough to allow me to run it entirely unprepared, detailed enough that I don't need to make up everything on the fly. Good stuff.

Always. It is done.

Good question! Consequence for failure is cumulative in this game, punishment is not immediate.

The odds of success in this game are very low: you are not at all likely to become the necromantic trans trailblazer you hope to be. The alternate options resemble the situations of people who surround you, yes, but I do think losing your body, your soul, etc is pretty dire.

Did you include a print-friendly version just for me? I love you.

What a weird, wonderful little dungeon. This monthly exercise— which I’m certain is a labour of love for the author— has been interesting to watch. Month two is a treat and I can’t wait for the third. Katt’s writing is flavourful, a little florid, and full of interesting tidbits that make my GM brain-neurons activate.

Every page of this game is gorgeous, Gomez has made something beautiful and terrifying. Worth much more than $5.

Hell yeah, this is just a tonne of fun. I love the pitch of "go get a coffee for a skeleton" and the little bare-bones system in this zine makes it super easy to introduce folks who might not know a tonne about playing TTRPGs to the scene-- a thing I do a LOT. The art is super cute. All in all, even though I don't live in the same country as the coffee bar I'm going to have to put it on my list of places to visit now that I've tumbled through this dungeon.

Oh, I AM pleased to hear that!!

Absolutely. Have fun, my friend. I added copies to most of my games.

Incredible bit of work, I'm absolutely blown away by how slick this looks.

absolutely incredible from the top down, you mad lad. I love it.

WOW, THE PROMPTS! The world building! Or rather, world ending.

What an incredible demonstration of effective brevity. You don’t need much to make a solo journaling game effective and this? This is great.

fuck me, that’s some haunting stuff. Talk about not pulling your punches with the writing prompts.

A zungeon, but a remarkably sharp-looking one. Katt has put some real thought into this and made something that is beautiful and useful at the table.

I love the map and pitch so far. Just a heads up: there’s no download button yet, which means no file has been uploaded yet. Since this project is a WIP that may have been intentional, but it’s worth mentioning because I do it on accident all the time.

Neat! We both made solo journaling games called Hedge Witch. Twins.

My little guy asked if I could run it for him in Mausritter, I said “yes, if you will make a dungeon for the kid who made it” and he said yes.

So your kid is a trendsetter. A TALENTED one, no less.

somebody read the jam requirements, cracked her knuckles and went to fuckin’ WORK!
