This Wednesday I'm going on stage at Games Now! in Aalto University to talk about dungeon design! Three days of awesome talks from the local gamedev scene. #ttrpg #indiedev gamesnow.aalto.fi/gn-event-wee...

I was checking rain predictions for tomorrow and saw that across the ocean half of Estonia just got hit with the third impact.

In know enough tech to know this could be a legitimate description of my account but it could also be a series of random words 😂
Text that reads: "They are currently using a custom domain which has a rarity level of uncommon. They don't have their own rotation key set, and their PSD is hosted by a Bluesky mushroom."

Last batch of the WIP class icons for #Runecycle. Initially I had a whopping 12 classes but ended up smushing them down to 6 with all of them having more options.
An emblem resembling a spiral with the text "Those with power fight by force. Unfortunately for the, you know how to fight dirty." An emblem resembling a flaming star with the text "You did not choose to take the risk. They made the choice for you."

Glorious (what a name for a company) has some cleaner designs. Their latest models are real expensive but if you can find an older model its probably reasonably priced. Model O PRO (not O 2 PRO) in picture. I have their keyboard and its both minimalist and really good to type on so I trust them.

#Runecycle got into a massive overhaul over the winter break. Here's a wip of some of the new class icons and intros

#selfpromosaturday #ttrpg #indiedev
an emblem resembling a shield with the text "the soul of warrior" and a description of "Where there is life, there is strife. Where there are people, there is war." an emblem resembling a compass with the text "the soul of nomad" and a description of "Many would stay in their place and make do with what they have. But not you. For you the journey is the destination." an emblem resembling a scroll with the text "the soul of sage" and a description of "Knowledge is power. Pen is mightier than the sword. I don’t know where I’m going with this." an emblem resembling an eye with the text "the soul of oracle" and a description of "There is great darkness in the world. Perhaps most of it. But you light that darkness, and make the world worthwhile."

Happy #selfpromosaturday to those who celebrate. Today, a sneak peak at the GM side of #Runecycle with a divination system to inspire you and your world! #ttrpg #indiedev

I find the pixelated enemy quite fitting but the pixel chest does not mix well with the others. Pixelated enemies - makes sense for the machines. But why is the chest pixelated? Is it also a robot? I prefer it with rounded corners like this or something of the like.

#selfpromosaturday wooot! Today in the process of #Runecycle ttrpg I'm showing you a wip illustration from the game. I grew tired of public domain images so I took the obviously easy solution of learning how to draw myself. #indiedev #art

On this #wipwednesday I'm working on character art for #Runecycle. Pixel art from Craftpix.net vectorized by me to fit the style of my game. Nervously representing her people, the Taridians living on the shores of Titan's Harbor. #ttrpg #indiedev

#Runecycle 0.7 is released! Read the devlog and get the free playtest at runecycle.com. And check out this system brief! I managed to fit most of the relevant rules in this spread alone 😱 What do you think? Too complex, too simple or just right?

You are chilling in The Void and you run into this infinite cube full of hooded figures. What do you do?

Stay tuned for a wacky adventure in the Non-Euclidian 4-dimensional Aberrant Castle!

It's #selfpromosaturday somewhere in the world!

The Affinity sale got me some great assets and
✨ #Runecycle ✨ got a new coat of paint. All WIP but I'm feeling confident about combining art deco, old paintings and some grungy textures into a unique blend of fantasy. runecycle.com #ttrpg #indiedev

What bad decisions would you make while playing this class? Pick the Enchanter as your Primary Aspect and you too can delve too deep into dark magic!

Stay tuned for the class update of ✨#Runecycle✨
