Everytime I go to make a small game, I feel like I've got to give you all some really decent art to look at.

I went down a bit of a rabbit hole yesterday on ships-as-characters for a project. Trying to find a way to make attractive, but also useful art assets for a game.

All right fine. You all like the fish!
I finished up the front side of the ship sheet and I guess I'm making a space trading game. (Combining the Boundless rules by Rene Pier Deshaies with the card trading rules from an earlier prototype.)
Next up should be a port of call.

Nothing makes your day like hearing that someone has not only read, but *played* your game!
Thank you!

Ran a one-shot of it at a ttrpg convention 10 days ago (the Page of Swords one), everyone loved it and I might have convinced some more people to check it out.

Working on a lines for a pair of very large images today, both about space and d20's but quite different in character.
I don't know about the other would-be designers out there, but I have to hop around from one project to another to prevent burnout.

Threadcutters out there in the wild! It makes me feel like the proud game parent.
My lovely copy of Threadcutters, by @potatocubed.bsky.social, arrived earlier today in the mail! 👀
Check it out if y'all like assassins, great tarot mechanics, or a variety of great hits to run at the table.

One thing I truly love about being an indie is I can sneak things in last minute that might get cut out of a bigger production, like a heartfelt in memoriam to my best friend and pup Cashmere alongside companion stats so she can join you on adventures.

And not only is it a great actual play, but also a great vid to watch as an introduction to the world, character creation, and general rules of Midnight Muscadines!

Revisiting an older project, and while the next iteration of Crash//Cart is going to allow much more player-driven characters, the art from the first version had such character!
Look at these sad-sack VTOL ambulance pilots.
I hope to keep the action-figure accessories, at least.

I've been talking a lot about Voidlight recently, but Voidlight is pretty much a scifi version of Boundless, my new soulslike tabletop RPG with old-school grit and modern design.
Boundless is free + open licensed, and is my go to "what do we play tonight" game.
