My #TTRPG VIBE CHECK, featuring the "impossible" combination of streamlined systems AND deep character customization, will release on Black Friday for $5.00 on DriveThruRPG!

Two extra themes will be available as DLC, plus a FREE VERSION of the game for anyone looking to try before they buy!
DO YOU FALL ASLEEP WAITING FOR YOUR TURN? VIBE CHECK PLAYERS DON’T HAVE THAT ISSUE! You deserve better than clunky mechanics, complex dice rolls, and character restrictions slowing things down at the table. That’s why Vibe Check is optimized for maximum fun with minimum effort right out of the gate. Learning the rules?? Takes all of ten minutes. Character builds?? 525 combinations at level 1, and the only reason it takes more than one minute to make a character is because they all look so cool! Rolling dice?? We only do that once per fight. Initiative order?? Your team chooses their own. If you want a game where you can grab your friends and jump right into the action, Vibe Check is the perfect game for you! REASONS WHY YOU NEED THIS GAME INCLUDE: • No stats to memorize; no excessive dice rolls! Make the RPG protagonist you’ve dreamed of or your favorite OC in minutes! • 5 roles, 15 themes, and over 150 abilities let you make character builds ranging from standard RPG fare to unhinged nonsense that no other game will allow! • Make your own strategy and combos! Work with your friends and defeat enemies using guns, swords, magic spells, telekinetic trash compactors, pools of acid, good old rock and roll, angry squirrels, supernovas… • A fully-developed cooking system because my friend Alice made me add one to the game. • Countless hours of fun filled with awesome teamwork, exciting battles, and hilarious interactions. • The best $5.00 you’ve ever spent on a game. VIBE CHECK November 28, 2025 Mark your calendars!

Thanks for the space!
Nothing to really share, but I have gotten a few games to playtesting stages, from zany co-op one-shots right up to a long-form #ttrpg about the cost of war.
I'm excited to hopefully get some playtesters!

In Chronicles of the Boundless there are 3 bastions of civilization that are still standing against the corruption of the Derweald.

I designed 8 sets of rolling tables to help create thematic names for the game depending on where your character is from.

Will publish on patreon this weekend.

How to get #AI and #LLMs OUT of your company using simple programming:

Its a communication error between client and customer: they think AI is synonymous with automation.
Mariya Delano (Mariyadelano@hachiderm.io) I've been testing a theory: many people who are high on #AI and #LLMs are just new to automation and don't realize you can automate processes with simple programming, if/then conditions, and API calls with zero AI involved. So far it's been working! Whenevr I've been asked to make an AI flow or find a way to ipmplement an AI flow or find a way toimplement AI in our work with a client, I've returned back with an automation flow that uses 0 AI. Things like, "when a new document is added here, add a link to it in this spreadsheet then create a task in our project management software assigned to X with label Y". And the people who were frothing at the mouth at how I must change my mind on AI (so far) all responded with resounding enthusiasm and excitement.

My wife’s bank account is at –$100. She’s trans and disabled, unable to work because of her health and the discrimination she's faced. I’m doing what I can, but we can’t cover this alone.

Sadly, all the Learn Blender people were right. You couldn't pay me to go back to Maya or 3Ds Max. And I couldn't pay me either, because their license costs are insane
