Got to talk about Branded For Sacrifice, my first real shot at an RPG video game, inspired by Bloodborne, Elden Ring, and Final Fantasy. It's a shorter experience, I can be at it in about 2 or 3 hours, but I am proud of it :)

Here are four maps from my current game project, tentatively called "Chimera Rancher". In it you play as a newly retired soldier learning to accept peace in a small village called Hamlet. Pictured in order:
- Hamlet
- Your Ranch
- A wetland area west of town
- Farron's Mercantile, a shopping HUB

A not so gentle reminder from Beren

A not so gentle reminder from Beren
In Arc City Stories, I write about a bitter old man learning to fight for someone else again.
In Neo Cyberpunk, I write about a young woman going through hell so her mother might not have to.
In Power Loss, I write about two young men finding a space for love in grief.
It's always about love.

I drafted a table display/poster for an upcoming convention I'll be attending (Fantasy Forge in Pigeon Forge, TN, info in the thread). Any thoughts or comments on the layout? I'm still tinkering with designs before shopping printers. #indieauthors #writing #marketing #graphicdesignismypassion
