Hey guys,
The time for things from the Nodus 02 campaign, to start coming to life has come! First of all, something many of you have been eagerly anticipating:, and as Kickstarter backers, you have the privilege of being the first to get your hands on. The Dimday Red TTRPG Solo Mode!
Dive into the doomed world of DdR alone (good luck with that!) and unravel the mysteries of the Center! You will have Circe, a Marble Eyes oracle, on your side, or more accurately inside your head, to guide you and help you in your adventures.
You will also find a Journal page template, you can use to record your progress and remember your struggles for survival.
You can get the Solo Mode now with the updated DdR Quickstart 00.42 !
If you already have Nodus 01 you can use it to create your first solo adventure! But you can also get the Butcher of Hollow Way the first of the Plebis Collection adventures, for free! In any case, you're most probably doomed, so enjoy!
And that is just the start! Next week you will have access to the digital version of the Nodus 01+ zine, with 16 extra pages, new art and the rules of the Monojux blood sport!
And in the week after that the digital version of Nodus 02 zine will be upon you! I can't put in words how excited I am about this baby!
And that's just the start! More the-world-is-burning hot stuff to come throughout August, so stay tuned!
Those of you who haven't completed your Backerkit survey yet, please do! And those of you who would like to add more Nodus 02 stuff to your order, you still have time! The Collector's Edition will be awesome!!!
Once more thank you all for your love and support!

Here is a project we believe is worth your attention!
LeCod’s Revenge: A 1€ Undead Swashbuckler Adventure for 5E
Choose your mask, wear your dashing suit and dress, and dive into a colourful, roguish, and whimsically irresistible 5E adventure designed for three to six 5th-level characters. Your mission? Infiltrate LeCod’s masked gala, navigate the perilous maze of his enchanted manor, and unveil the path to his secret lich lair. Dancing with Death has never looked fancier.
LeCod’s Revenge includes:
- A swashbuckler-esque adventure mixing classic DnD vibes with the worlds of One Piece, Monkey Island, and Our Flag Means Death;
- Irresistible, in-depth NPCs to guide you throughout the adventure;
- New companions and foes, like the ever-useful (and only mildly annoying) Adoring Fin and the Astute Necrofancier;
- Original magic items, like the Necrofancier Staff, the Vaudeville Veil, and the Mysterious Panache!
- Battlemaps for all the adventure’s major encounters;
The Dimday Red project evolves!

Exciting News: A New Chapter Begins!
First and foremost, thank you for your support and patience over these past months. I know we’ve been a bit quiet lately, and I’m excited to finally share why!
I’m thrilled to announce that we are rebranding all Dimday Red’s social media, Discord, and overall presence to 1sickPuppy Publishing. This new name reflects my growing ambitions and passion for not only creating and designing TTRPG books but also expanding into the world of tabletop and digital games, comics and other creative ventures.
Why the Silence?
During this quiet period, I’ve been hard at work behind the scenes, laying the groundwork for this exciting change. This included gathering a talented team of creatives who share my vision and enthusiasm for storytelling. We’ve been brainstorming, planning, and preparing to bring you even more engaging and diverse projects.
What that means for you?
Fresh Identity
While our scope widens, our commitment to delivering high-quality, imaginative content remains. You can still expect the same dedication and creativity you got from Dimday Red, now under the banner of 1sickPuppy.
Broader Horizons
This rebrand allows us to explore and publish a wider variety of content, from new TTRPG books to captivating comic series and beyond, created in-house or by other extraordinary creatives.
Unified Community Space
All our social media accounts and Discord server will be renamed to 1sickPuppy Publishing, creating a unified space for all our current and future projects.
CHECK OUT THE BRAND NEW WEBSITE!
1sickPuppy is not just a vessel for our own products. Our mission is to give indie creators around the world the tools and support they need to shine. From crafting compelling brands and engaging marketing strategies to offering crowdfunding support and consulting, we’re dedicated to helping you break through the noise.
You can now find all our services, and updates on our new website!

Hey all,
Its been a while since my last update, mostly because of my creative work habit, to put my head down, forget about the world, and lift it up again when I'm done! Not very sociable, but it gets the work done!
Still, these little fellows came in today, and I thought you'd like to meet them!
Those of you who backed the physical versions of the Nodus 02 campaign, will get your hands on a custom set just like that! For those who missed it, you can check the Late-Pledge page on BackerKit.
Many parts of the project have been moving forward. I am particularly excited for the Pocket Guide to the Lapse book, that is coming up much bigger in scope than I originally expected, with lore passages, short stories and extra references. Here is a sneak peak!
I have planned for some stuff to be released in their digital form, quite ahead of schedule by the end of June, so stay tuned!

My good friends at Edge of Mythos are launching a new campaign today for their new TTRPG. I think you may want to take a look!
In Dream City Knights, players delve into a world where dreams and reality intersect, taking on the roles of a group of teenage friends who discover an extraordinary ability – the power to traverse to the enigmatic Dream City while they sleep. As they navigate this surreal landscape, they must unravel the mysteries of the Tower and confront the challenges of rebelling against the Dream City while balancing the tribulations of their waking lives.
Key Features of Dream City Knights:
Innovative Duality System: Explore the unique mechanics of the Duality System, where actions are influenced by a character's Focus, embodying dual attributes for both the waking and dream worlds. This system challenges players to adapt to the shifting realities of their adventure, blurring the lines between dreams and reality.
Epic Storytelling: Immerse yourself in an epic narrative filled with intrigue, mystery, and adventure. Discover the secrets of Dream City, confront the enigmatic Tower, and forge bonds with your fellow guardians as you navigate the delicate balance between dreams and reality.
Dynamic Encounters: Engage in thrilling Nightmare Encounters, where reactive gameplay mechanics keep you on your toes. Unravel the objectives of each encounter and strategize with your friends to overcome the challenges that await in the dream world.
Team Dynamics: Manage your team's Morale and Trouble as you make choices that impact your reputation and grades in both the waking and dream worlds. Navigate the consequences of your actions and rise to the challenge as you strive to become legendary Dream City Knights.
Dream City Knights offers a unique tabletop experience where reality is just the beginning of the adventure. Are you ready to uncover the truth, navigate the dream world, and challenge the enigmatic Tower? The adventure awaits.

Another one bites the (Sahra) dust!

I don't know how many of you caught the DdR lore reference in the title, but if you're seeing this you probably know another Dimday Red campaign had a happy ending!
I am very excited because with the success it had, I will be able to add some extras to the production of the physical products.
It's amazing that more than a third of the people who backed the project chose the Collector's Edition :)
So, the least I can do is to make them happy when they receive their goods! People who know me from the previous campaign, know I like to add a surprise or two :)
The Collector's Edition will be epic, but that doesn't mean there are not enough to go around for everyone else!
With the DdR dice set, the mobile game and the DdR solo mode on the way, all backers have stuff to look forward to!
For those of you who would like to upgrade their Dimday Red experience, I will be using Backerkit as a pledge manager this year, so you can update your order there at any time. I will post an update when it's ready.
I know I tend to thank people a lot, but I can't help it! You all help bring to life something that is very dear to me, so once more thank you and I hope you enjoy setting the world on fire as much as I do!
Cheers,
Spiros

Here are some projects I believe are worth your attention!
__
At the heart of each story are the Metanthrope Protagonists. Metanthropes (me-tan-throwps) are beings of limitless potential in a setting of endless possibilities. The very essence of the word "Metanthrope" originates from the Greek term "Μετάνθρωπος" which translates to "beyond human". These remarkable beings embody the dichotomy between humanity and something more.
What sets Metanthropes apart from ordinary humans are their Metapowers: unique, metaphysical gifts that transform them into something extraordinary. Yet, even with their newfound abilities, Metanthropes remain tethered to the frailties, passions, and flaws of their human nature.

Dive into a Gothic world that's rife with subterfuge and spellcasting alike, in this PBTA (Powered by the Apocalypse) hack that combines the dynamic, character-driven mechanics of Amour Astir with a dark, sprawling Gothic setting where the Crown reigns supreme. The Crown is a monarchical force that uses its populace for cannon fodder, magical tithing—whatever it wants.
