Changed my travel plans for #KublaCon from flying to driving. Have an aching feeling that I would get screwed going or leaving given the shutdown & how much the admin hates CA.
Much easier on my mind to drive the 6 hours there and make a road trip out of it.

1st reel up on IG! It gives an overview of the core conflict for our #ttrpg 🖋️E-Scape🖋️.
Ready to create YouTube content explaining the game's setting, mechanics, and plot hooks. But the focus now shifts to prepping for #kublaconfall2025! Have 2 of 3 events booked, looking for 4 more in the 3rd.

Some 3D printed tokens to be used for the game. Players can gain3 bit flips per session (blue). The other tokens represent assorted game clocks: timer (grey), suspicion (green), & noise (purple). The last monitors how "loudly" PC spell casts are in the VR system before authorities show up.

Editing for E-Scape officially begins Nov 3. Getting some last-minute updates done first to make sure everything's captured.
Hard to believe the project's gotten this far. A long 2+ years to get here, but well worth it!

#ttrpg dev tip: When you run playtest adventures of your new system, take note of times when you had to think which b/w 2 skills should apply to a test.
If the choice was easy, great. If it wasn't, update rules so other GMs have an easier time than you did.

Now that the first draft of the E-Scape ttrpg is complete, time to focus on marketing. Get some videos up, open my website, improve my IG game, & maybe do some podcast interviews (if anyone would have me... lol).
Any recommendations for ppl to connect with to spread the word about the game?

Shared a reminder on IG to all you #ttrpg gamers out there that we'll be at #kublacon Nov 14-17 in Burlingame, CA! We're hosting 3 events, all running our 1-shot adventure called The Vertice Extraction. Can you find and extract a Copy before system authorities do?
Hope to see you there!

#ttrpg dev tip: When designing your game, consider how important combat will be. If you expect action scenes to dominate, your rules should slant heavily towards that.
But if you want "quieter" campaigns, lighten the rules load for combat resolution & bulk up elsewhere.
Design intent matters!
