Hi! My game LIGAMENTS uses a philosophy a lot like this, where as long as you have the TIME and RESOURCES, you can do anything, but when TIME is tight and RESOURCES are scarce, you have to rely on LUCK, which is all dice rolls.

Here's the page describing it for GMs!

I've never been able to finish Sun/Mon, or US/UM. But I've been hankering to tackle them after I finish my violet playthrough.

One thing I won't disparage about those games is the new Pokemon. Some of the best we've ever gotten. I've been a Minior stan since I first saw him. He's my son.

From watching @shinycatherine.com Pokemon Synchro hide and seek videos while I write, to finally picking up Pokemon Violet.

And running into this girl, full odds, thinking it was a texture bug down a cliff before my eyes bugged out of my skull and I kept off to grab her lmao

I had a truly excellent birthday surprise given to me by my wife, a very silly RPG session with some of my closest friends, playing my game. Not running, I was able to play, as she dusted off her GM skills and came back for one lost job.

It was ridiculous, and it was beautiful.

The morpher could be a cute animal figurine in a bubble that you pop, like the dice in Trouble

Unsure of what fel spirits possessed me to do 50 bespoke magical items for this zine, but it sure feels good to finally be done. Have an example as a holiday treat!

Keep an 👁️ on this space.
