On real #sad days; I'd remember mom. She'd recall all the horrible things happening to kids my age across the world. How they're going to have to live on with those experiences in their pasts. Eventually I'd realize that being able to mope about was a luxury.

Flipping Bastard Whatabout'ed me!!!

I have three types of TTRPG characters.

- There is a System and I will Destroy it.
- There is a System and I will Abuse it.
- Don't stop, never give up, hold your head high and reach for the top.
I have three types of TTRPG characters.

- Trans Girl Wish Fulfillment.
- Weiss Schnee but a different class.
- Disaster Lesbian who tries to be the party face.

Sometimes all three at once, lol XD

Building this craft game has been a fun test of what I've learned in a six month fever dream of a course. It still looks like cheeks but its a wip. Consuming books, random build quest and building in multiple weapon functions; all work!

Without a Dawn is coming out in less than three weeks! I'm pushing hard to gather enough wishlists for better exposure on Steam, so if this looks like something you'd play, consider adding to your wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/3145620/... Thank you! 🤗💛

Guess I now have a proof of concept of In A Dark Place. You can accept craft jobs from clients, craft the item, hand in the item and receive rewards. I removed the AI backgrounds and replaced it with horribly edited images!(Till I get human made pixel art)

Making a game. Got a third of my Proof of Concept done. It's a single location crafter called In a Dark Place. You're trapped in a smithy and must build a way out.
1) What I Got Done So Far
2) Accept craft quests.
3) Craft an item.
Turn in that item for a reward.

First Rule of #Spades: Supposed to learn young. When you ask to play, the adults tell you to watch. That's how they know if you're behaved enough to play. Sit, watch, learn.

Adults that don't know how to play = you were a misbehaving, no listening, troublemaker of a child!
