Welcome to the Rolling Alone Podcast

The "home base" for this show is the Rolling Alone Substack

Drop by and comment, like, share. I write 3-4 posts per week, including reviews, tips, ideas and play reports about my Solo RPG journey.

Join me as I "think aloud" about designing my upcoming Solo RPG. I have created a 2-page version for the 2026 Game Jam. It's a vertical slice of the eventual full game, and it can be downloaded and played as PWYW on Itch.

My 2-page game is called The Apartment Below. Feedback welcome! I will be updating the game and discussing it on my Substack

Mentioned in this episode:

• Overland Empire, creator of Of Coal and Corpses

• Niamh Celeste's Substack, A Reading Journey
• The Ravensridge Emporium
• Dawnfist Games
• Witches of the Wenderweald

I have started a Ko-Fi page for those who might want to support the podcast. Head over to the Rolling Alone Ko-Fi to make a donation. Everything received will go towards improving and developing this podcast.

UPDATE: I'm currently "crowdfunding" for a new external hard drive to hold all the gigantic files generated by this podcast.
