What's up Bluesky, I'm Abby, designer & artist for The Mirage Company, a two-man TTRPG design team working on WELLSPRING RPG.
I'm here to provide my unhinged game design thoughts, share some art, and probably talk about whatever video game has caught my attention.

I would describe my end goal for Wellspring's layout to be "ergodic literature but it's an RPG" so put that on the record

4. Look just watch it watch it look it's on YouTube how can I make you watch this

age verification is bullshit and this whole "protecting children from ~the internet~" thing is straight up motivated by fascism and censorship and a desire to control young people
however I think all social media should have a toggle that says "hide all posts from anyone in high school or younger"

idk maybe I will make the easy version and keep it unreleased-ish just to get a draft down and see how it feels At All.
there is absolutely an easy way to make this game but it is not what I'm interested in because it's not what I think the game ought to be.
but also, how the fuck,

A white supremacist shit head died and the whole world rallies to lionize him, my trans siblings get murdered constantly because of his rhetoric, fucking crickets. I'm exceptionally exhausted with existing in a world that would clap at my death and celebrate those who called for it.
I dont have adequate words for my anger today at the hagiography and whitewashing of a neonazi whos fans Ive been personally harassed by. Like Ive gotten got called slurs by a guy in a turning point shirt here in Saskatoon. Your sympathy for the devils pretty vile.
