Hi everyone,

I'm Jay Anyong from The Life and Times of a Philippine Gamer, and I'd like to make an open call for anyone who has any good links, blog entries or series that talk about writing & designing RPGs. I'm looking for other resources as well, so freelancers (writers or artists) who are open to being advertised on a blog like mine are welcome to send in their information as well.

The reason for this is that I'd like to encourage game design in my country, and having a go-to page with all sorts of handy advice and resources might be just the thing to make it happen. I've only begun with only a few meager links at the moment, but I'm hoping that the networks will be able to help me out.

For the curious, here's the page I'm talking about http://philgamer.wordpress.com/game-design-resources/

Thanks for your time.

-Jay

Not sure if it is what you are looking for, but I have a tag on Reality Refracted for Game Design where I talk about certain aspects of designing RPGs, though I haven't had a post under that tag in a bit. You can find the tag related posts here:  http://www.realityrefracted.com/search/label/Game%20Design 

I'll see what else I can dig up to help you too.

Hi Anthony,

This is great! I'm willing to accept anything as even musings about mechanics and such can be really helpful.

Campaign Mastery has three articles on that subject, all available from the index page http://www.campaignmastery.com/blog/tag/game-design/ .

Hi Jay,

I have a number of Game Design articles on the KORPG blog

http://www.korpg.com/blog/category/game-design/

You're welcome to link back to them as well.

However, as my design focus includes more than rpgs, you'll find more than rpg-centric entries therein.

Should you want me to filter those results to be only rpg oriented, let me know and I'll see how difficult it would be to create a custom filter to only return those within the Venn intersection.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for bringing these to my attention. I don't mind linking to articles that tackle more than just RPGs. Sometimes looking at other game types can inspire someone to try something new and innovate.

Jay,

Well, I've been writing a blog series about game design called Making the Game (part 7 just went live today), but it's actually about the card game I'm making, not an RPG.

Hi Michael,

I can link to this, but I suppose I might as well place it under a  Non-RPG game design category. Still good to have!

If you are open beyond P&P, I find the video presentations of gaming-topics and mechanics from Extra Creditz highly indispensable!

Hey QuestingGM!

It's been a while since I've heard from you. Good idea, I'll add that link to the page as well
