The gap between my imagination and skill is very large.

Caves of Qud Switch Review | What's It Like? Have you ever had a game get under your skin, in a good way? I initially only had a taste, playing it for an hour before having to move on to other projects

Caves of Qud will not be for everyone, and in my first few hours I thought it might not be for me either. But for players who love weird and wonderful games where every mistake becomes a story, Caves of Qud is waiting for you.

I really like synthmusic. A lot of it comes with caveats. Here is something that doesn't. Something perfect just the way it is.

Random chance also feels like a blunt tool for this. Kind of weird it's the default solution.

Thinking a lot about stakes in ttrpg design today. Especially violence, but really any consequence.

In genre fiction you really want the thrill of a close call, so you need the threat of disaster, but you really don't want Indiana Jones to get crushed by the boulder. It wouldn't be satisfying.

Gunther, black cat, sitting on his cat tree.

Had a dream where I went back in time for some reason, and I ran into my cat that died. I asked the lady I was with, what I could to save him, and she said "nothing."

RIP Gunther you were a real one.

Little Visitor and Other Abductions is a very good comic.

@adamszym.bsky.social knows how to give you just enough to make it stick in your head.

Itzli approves.

"The player makes up what happens" is the strongest most powerful thing that ttrpg can do.

It's also wildly unpopular and most modern game mechanics are designed to produce that result while obscufating it from the players.

So happy to share my Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam piece for Spoke Art's #SDCC25! If youre at SDCC make sure to stop by their booth 4900 and check it out! Zeta Gundam has such a special place in my heart for many reasons and I hope I did it justice.

Can I ask if you would recommend it to me, if I didn't like the 1st game much?

Mainly, I play these types of games because I love making builds, which I felt was too shallow in the 1st game.

I've been curious because lots of people talking about improvements...

Actually, ballots are separated and hand cancelled once it's close enough to election day.

Would it be surprising to hear that this has actually already been in practice for years in offices level 20 or higher?
