Whither Reddit? In the meantime, here’s a place to chat up old school revival (OSR) and new school revolution (NSR) style TTRPGs.

My name is Todd aka Hexed Press and I am the current caretaker (have I always been the caretaker?). Here are some other places to find me, if you are so inclined:

I typically just by the PDF, print it, and then make a custom cover for it. It may look very polished, but the jankiness makes it all the more special to me. Anyone else do this?

I've bound a few PDFs, but I typically leave the cover looking very simple.

For zines, I print them on nicer paper and sew them together instead of stapling. For things I intend to be more durable, I make stiffened paper bindings with actual front and back cover boards (usually covered in construction paper).

I love doing this with PDFs, it's much nicer and more personal than putting them on an iPad or something.
