Nybs' Random Bullshit

Are you the sort of person who likes things that are "weird"?

Do you like inventing blorbos and then subjecting them to the horrors™ ?

Would you get excited by the idea of a game that not only encouraged characterization, experimentation, and out of the box thinking.. but explicitly rewarded it?

Are you a burnt out queer filled with rage at the state of the world, looking for a chance to cause some cathartic havoc?

You* should start playing Triangle Agency

*stanndard disclaimer that no TTRPG is for everyone.

The Pitch: Triangle Agency is a paranormal investigation game like Monster of the Week or Delta Green where you play as unwilling employees of a laughably sinister corporation that has you plunging into pockets of warped reality in the hopes of keeping the world together long enough to make quarterly profits.

You do this by capturing Anomalies, entities born of thoughts and feelings so strong that they reshape the world around them in disastrous ways: An icecream truck that wants to help people escape a summer heatwave and ends up freezing them solid, the imaginary friend of a lonely kid that goes on to kidnapping other children once their playmate outgrows them, a tech-billionaire's gravity warping ego tearing up the city to make way for their futuristic vision.

Every player is also bonded with their own Anomaly which lets them warp reality in their own specific ways. Just as a scattering of examples: Catalogues can make any tool for any job, including conjuring alternate versions of themselves. Dreams can put targets to sleep and jump into works of art to interact with the characters inside. Manifolds can teleport at will and trap enemies in liminal labyrinths. Guns can intimidate ANYTHING with the threat of violence and delete whatever they point at from reality.

It makes the game this delightfully odd three-part-blend of Gravity Falls, The Magnus Archives, and Chainsaw Man. You're superheroes clocking in to work menial office jobs before getting hauled out into the field to solve mysteries, kill nightmares, and confront physical manifestations of your greatest regrets.

Why you should check this game out: Despite my many comparisons to other things, I don't think I've ever played anything quite like Triangle Agency, and I think as someone who enjoys TTRPGS, you owe it to yourself to try something this fun and this different. As a player, I've never felt more empowered to play my character the way I wanted them, and be rewarded for engaging with the parts of the game I found interesting. As a GM it's a BREEZE to prep/run, taking almost all the stress out of running the session because as far off the rails as players go, the structure of the game always snaps them back where you need them by the end of the mission.

Some old personal work for a series pitch I decided to stop pursuing.

My compositor and I stayed up late one night developing this line treatment as an experiment.

While we never ended up making this, we did end up using the treatment on the Hyper Light Breaker trailer.

The kingly pig looks taken aback by this statement. "You claim to be 'baiting' our kind?.. A master of it, no less - after all the trust we hsve placed in you?"
