Horny Valentines

One thing I love about the indie ttrpg circles I run in is the abundance of trans people. Especially the abundance of trans people who are interested in exploring and publishing work that surrounds sex and sexuality. One of my first introductions to the concept of lyric games, for example, was Draw a square in the dirt with a stick and then stand in the square and yell “sex is here!” by Riverhouse Games and Adira Slattery. Dasitdwasatsitsaysih! really opened my eyes to the way things that are not necessarily sexy can become sexy, and also to how you can just make anything at all that you want, when you write games.

Riverhouse Games and Adira Slattery are far from the only people making weird and erotic games though. Titanomachy, has opened the #tittyRPG jam for 2025 to celebrate horny transgender art in particular, in response to the growing hatred for queer and trans sexuality in the world today. The world is not creating spaces that are safe for queer people to be horny, so, let’s do it ourselves.

I’ve written my own weird sex games too! The surprisingly popular This Game Takes Place in Dracula’s Castle was me specifically leaning into sexualising a dangerous and unsafe dynamic. Trinity is less explicit, but more intimate, I think, and Fuck Your God is a solo experience with the intent of inspiring divine masturbation sessions. (Find these here)

There are so many games in the horny transgender genre that I won’t call them all out for lack of time and energy, but last I checked there were already 17 entries to the tittyRPG jam if you want somewhere to start.

I’ll also just name drop Transgender Deathmatch Legend II which is incredible, and I’M A TRANS MAN AND I’M HERE TO FUCK by Logan Timmins, Uncle Vlad, Nimaël, and Rook.

I was thinking about writing a whole thing about how I’m exploring the horny video game scene looking for art like this, and struggling to find it, but I got distracted talking about all the awesome ttrpg projects instead, so I’ll leave it here with one nod to Hardcoded, a trans robot sex game about invasive tentacle monsters and corporate exploitation. In a year or so of exploration, this is the best one I’ve found by far. I highly recommend it if you’re interested in the genre.

So uh, horny valentines weekend to all of you, and to all of you a good night!

Wait- before I go

I’ve been forgetting to do housekeeping stuff in the last few newsletters so!

If you enjoy my newsletter, I’d really appreciate it if you shared! I lost quite a few followers in the move to beehiiv because I didn’t want to move people who hadn’t heard from me in a year over here without their permission and I knew asking for permission would be a waste of time. So please, if you like something I write, share my bluesky post about it or make your own! Or forward the email to your mum (maybe not this email, but i don’t know your mum, maybe this one!).

Next! Streams in the coming week. assuming the weather and my health are amenable, we’ll be streaming:

• Monday (tomorrow) at 10am nzt. Starting a new hardcore save in minecraft because we fell into lava last week ☹️ 

• Tuesday at 1pm nzt. Continuing our dwarf fortress run that is going shockingly smoothly, considering…. all of the things that have happened.

• Saturday at 1pm nzt- Probably finishing Far: Changing Tides, but we’ll see what I’m in the mood for.

And finally a bunch of my links:

Tumblr - where I semi regularly share opinions that probably should have been newsletter entries but come to me in the middle of the week so end up here instead

Bluesky - Where I am bafflingly close to 1000 followers

Patreon - Where I am STILL seeking suggestions for additional benefits for supporters

Ko-Fi - Where people irrationally give me money for video games I can’t afford

Twitch - where i make a fool of myself a couple of times a week

Thanks again for reading, and I’ll see you all next week, where maybe I’ll talk porn video games? If people don’t unsub en-mass after getting this edition, at least 😉
