"to democratize art is not every person having a cute drawing made in seconds, to democratize art is every person having time and health to learn and make art if they chose to, and mainly to have the means to think and relate introspectively with art."
Pq democratizar a arte não é toda pessoa ter um desenho bonitinho feito em segundos, democratizar arte é toda pessoa ter tempo e saúde pra aprender e produzir arte se quiser mas principalmente ter condição pra pensar e se relacionar com arte com introspecção.

There hasn't been a single game in my life where I've thought, "Man I wish could ask this NPC absolutely anything I want and they'd respond."

Even if I had, it'd be novel for about 2 minutes.

I'll take 50 handcrafted lines from an actual writer than 1 million from a glorified chat bot any day.

Campfire is crowdfunding!

It's my new game, designed for people new to tabletop RPGs: those who always wanted to try but were intimidated by thick rulebooks and tomes of lore.

If that sounds like you, please support and share. Thanks!

Violent retribution? Blood? On one's name? Sounds like my kind of game. Looking forward to playing this upon release.
Take your revenge or die trying.

Blood On My Name, a solo journaling #TTRPG of violent retribution by Jason & me, arrives March 15th 2025.

Load your guns, sharpen your blades, and return from retirement as one of the world's best assassins now on a personal mission of vengeance.
