    Verne World (1995, SNES) Today's shots were provided by @videogamebeach.bsky.social 🏖️, from a neat looking game that I'd never even heard of before today. Always love to be introduced to games from old systems that I thought I'd seen it all from, especially when it involves cute pixel art plants!

    I just teared up a little at that intro to the SECCG. End of an era, y'all: this is the final SEC on CBS game, the final time we're going to hear the theme before they play it exclusively before shit like Rutgers-Oregon. So happy they let Uncle Verne get behind the mic for it.

    Steampunk. Looks pretty good. If you're seeking a faithful adaptation of Jules Verne, look elsewhere, but at this point Verne is fair game and this seems like a quality production. Will check out the first one at least. I guess it's out on Disney plus. It's a British/American co production.

My husband and 9yo twins and I have a home game that’s been running for a couple years - I’m a bronze dragonborn fighter named Verne who’s gruff and pragmatic and mysteriously afraid of the ocean.

    My kids loved Ender's Game, The City of Ember, The Wild Robot. They both also appreciated Ray Bradbury & Jules Verne - like "All Summer in a Day". They overall read a broad author mix incl Barbara Park, Nikki Giovanni, Colson Whitehead. Brian Jacques. It can be hard to serve advanced young readers.

    I just face the friction in my Verne meets Indiana Jones game that they both treat travel very differently. In Jones it's just red lines on a map. In Verne it's sometimes the entire story. Not sure if I am able to square that circle. Is there some middle road? Still mulling. #ttrpgdesign

    It's at the very least an interesting challenge to consider. Which part gets the focus? Jones or Verne? Will this shift the tone of the game substantially depending on the direction I take? I can always make travel mechanics optional but that feels like a copout.

    If you wanna get all "well, actually", I'd say Falkenstein was the first steampunk game. While Space 1889 came out in 1989 and CF 1994ish, it was a "scientific romance" game and doesn't really count as steampunk (in the sense that Jules Verne or H.G. Wells aren't steampunk).
