Sometimes I think about making a blog because I want to ramble about stuff at length but 300 characters is just not enough and I hate making run-on threads.
I could put a crude one together using vercel and obsidian, but I wonder if there are better options.

This is likely not a popular opinion, but I think one nice thing about universes beyond in magic the gathering is the fact that it means we can get black cards that aren't grotesque and macabre.
I know that's also true for bloombourrow but still...

People talk about the AI bubble bursting and that it will crash the economy and stuff and I just want to know how this bubble bursting is going to cause food prices to skyrocket and people in jobs unrelated to tech to get laid off.
It's not that far reaching, is it?

Of course, when I say that I haven't drawn seriously, I mean high end, fully rendered images, lined and colored and all.
I've been drawing still, especially for my card game, but still mostly just been doing very fast and very crude illustrations, not stuff people would pay money for.

So due to my current financial situation, I've been thinking about getting into doing commissions again for some supplemental income. Of course the first thing is getting back into practice with seriously drawing again, as I haven't really done it in a good while...

I should probably also say, I'm always open to get some new playtesters on board for this card game.
Right now it's just me and a few friends but if you are interested and have tabletop simulator then just let me know!

So in Balloonomancy, Cards are broken up into 4 main color divisions defined by it's pool of themes and general strategy. here's a pile of cards from each.
Art is all over the place, some old, most new, nearly all of it temporary. most is by me but @balloogabu.bsky.social has done some blue cards.

It's hard to really talk about game rules much within a 300 word limit, but I do have a crude Vercel website that I use to post up rules as well as some design notes. just recently updated it. you can check it out here:

And I do have to limit myself to 10 minutes on a drawing because otherwise I get way too committal to what is supposed to be temporary art.
While it means I can get stuff made and I don't get too attached to a card if it's not working out. They still look real rough and ugly...

But that's a dilemma really, how do you talk about an in progress card game?
Without knowledge of the rules all people have to work off of is card art, but when you don't have that either then what? Like I doubt people want to see my crude 10 minute illustrations.

I've been making a lot of progress on my card game project. while card art is still crude, temporary, or even absent, I've been making improvements on the rules formatting and layouts.
it's often hard to talk about a card game you are making when there isn't much exciting to show off.

So these are a new thing in my local supermarket but I can't help but wonder if they really thought the name through.
Just imagine telling somebody to get you some "saucy noods" with a straight face!

You know, "easy to learn, hard to master" is such a cliche branding line with card games these days.
You don't see people make or advertise games that are hard to learn and harder to master. Or games that are both easy to learn and gain mastery over.

You know, every year I think about wanting to do something or draw something seasonal but I end up not doing it. I'm always too occupied with whatever project I find myself working on.
Like it's almost Halloween now and spooky season is about to end and I've got nothing of note to show for it.

So I haven't been hearing much good about Legend Z-A, I'd imagine that the game is probably a bit anemic but is the battle system fun at least?

Found this card in the bulk boxes of my local card shop. Doesn't seem like a particularly good card but the art looked sick so I just bought it!
I've heard nothing good about Aetherdrift But I really do dig the way this card looks and wonder if there's others in this style.

concept sketches and illustrations for balloons of the blue color group, this specific class is known by the fact they wield plastic prop weapons and training swords to score a hit against players. it skirts the rules of the in-universe dodgeball game but blue does a lot of mildly cheat-y stuff.
