I remember when news came out that the Adventure Time TTRPG would end up just being a 5E Supplement I decided to try & make my own by hacking Black Sword Hack. This is as far as I got. Replace the 3 backgrounds to suit AT, and change the Stats to reflect the "Magic=Madness" aspect of AT. Thoughts?

And you all thought I was joking

Partner drew me for our anniversary. Was so cute I decided to make it my icon on a few things. 💚💛

The cover for this book is easily the best in the series thus far. Can't wait to see what we cook up for the final book!

This is the d100 places in the world chart. If you're not on this chart apologies. I know I didn't include the Ilse of Man on this, but it's a big world, and a lot of places have mysteries. Hope you all like the sneak peak at this as of yet untitled mystery game tool.

here's a preview of the games Challenge Resolution system, which uses a d100 and a table, for maximum chaos.

Update on Chaos Clash, the one shot game I've been working on: I've finished the conflict resolution rules and logo (which took two weeks, believe it or not). Now I just need to write 100ish Chaos Powers & associated Goals. Expect the finished game... eventually! Probably by the end of the month.

Ok, due to scheduling issues with Play Tests and the art not being ready yet, I'm putting the Ruin Guide on hold. Expect it some time in May. However, I am still working on a new game. A rules light game I mused about on here. Chaos Clash! Coming... when ever I can fill all those Random Charts!

Flavor text done! Hope you like it!

Found this in my laptop files. I should do more art like this.

working on a twenty part Random Society Chart for one of my up coming books. Tried to calculate how many unique results it could have. Any math people know what this number is? I think it's big.

Many of the ideas in the Weird Location chart are serious, but some are very tongue and check. One such idea is World Building Not Finished. An homage to the lazy and derivative. If you look closely you can see a little self own in there. You can't make fun of others without some humility after all.

I've started working on The Weird Locations Guide. Already plugged in 20 of the finished Locations. Doing some reformatting. As promised, here's 2 of the ideas. Pretty straight forward. Could make for a fun encounter or even a whole session. I'm also working on Giant Insects to go with Small Land.

Progress thus far. I have finished all that I though would take Jan, Feb, & March, + most of April, in less than 1 Month. Now a new goal has been set. Orange for Feb, Green for March, Blue for April. Should be out by early April. Additionally, Im going to start on the 4th book. More updates to come.

This is just from a week of work. 12 sections finished. Not too bad. Going to work on the Weird Locations, and then Stat Blocks. Several other things will flow easier once the Stats are done. I'm adding over 30 new monsters to this book.
January 7, 2025 at 6:22 PM
After 5 days of work I've gotten most of what I wanted to get done in January AND February done, plus a bit of March and April. Hey, this book is going to be out before June. My main goal for the rest of this month is the magic wands & some of the creature making rules. Stay tuned for more updates!

Rewatching @zigmenthotep.bsky.social's GURPS video on a whim today and I noticed the dates in this chart. Can't believe we just entered the MicroTech age! Hope you guys are taking advantage of the new World Tech Level.

On one hand, I shouldn't have called D&D out like this. Kinda Catty. On the other hand, they announced Bastions shortly before I released this. So clearly it was because of me. You're welcome guys. Can't wait for WOTC to add Magic Sex workers as a major faction in The Forgotten Realms.

That world also had Orks, who were analogous to Medieval Germany. I had them look very Porcine. I like Pig Men. They're fun. I could release the PDF I made of this project on Itch. Might have to give it a quick look over first. Idk what biases teenage me had yet to analysis if you know what I mean.

I don't get TTRPG people who feel they need to put AI art in their works to "fill in space". When I was making poorly conceived RPGs in High School I took images off Google Image and placed them over other images and cropped them. (I didn't what what Photoshop was). Took much more effort than AI.

I also included similar rules for nomadic bands. Because as I've mentioned before, I just really like the Eurasian Steppe, and felt I wanted to include "Being a Khan" as a Fantasy for my game. It's bound to be someone else's fantasy as well.

I mentioned earlier that I really like societal collapses as a concept. A lot of fantasy games have something like that as a backdrop. Forgotten Realms has Netheril, Runequest has the Empire of the Worm Friends. I decided to bake the idea into character options...

This is a much earlier version of the ideas laid out bellow. Much closer to 5E D&D. You can see where I began to move towards my more radical changed where I color coded the Saves by the new 3 classes I made up. With the old classes Clerics become Cha, Druids become Int, and Monks are Prof based.
