Good Morning Friends! This morning I talk about the new #HonkaiStarRail story drop, Immortality Ends, and what I hope is the wrap-up of the Luofu area. While I enjoyed it... I am kinda done with "Space China" and am ready for more planetary trailblazing shenanigans.
For several years I worked as tech director at a local Seattle girls middle school where I also taught coding &, eventually, D&D.
I started off with an #RPG club of 6 girls that grew until, within 3 years, we had a third of the school in RPG clubs. I ran classes based on #DnD, we had RPG summer camps. It was a blast.
Doing some file cleanup just now and I found this audio we recorded for a podcast where some 6+7th graders intro'd their characters (level zero! because I ran it very old school).
This week's #retro game of the week is one of the best Master System games... hell, it's the equal best game on the system, in fact. That's just the way it is.
Play it. Enjoy it. It's fabulous.
What is it? It's Ultima IV, an amazing port to Sega's little 8-bit powerhouse.
This is the prologue to Tales from Alderwood. We finished this a few years ago now. I'll be uploading the completed chapters and then the individual pages for the ongoing chapter after that until we get all caught up.
Good Morning Friends! This morning I talk about getting Luocha before the banner ends in #HonkaiStarRail and then give a bit of a recap on our #Blaugust2023 sign-ups so far. Really excited that we already have a mix of folks who have never done the #Blaugust event before.
My engine now supports Tiled world maps so the map can grow without strangling resources at run-time, also (and maybe more important) different people can work on the map at the same time. I do wish Tiled understood that a file is R/O and blocked editing until it was R/W. This is so important for version control that allows locking files. It is more of a problem with world maps where the chunk you're working is so easily changed. I would help fund this change.
We're about a week away from releasing the first edition of Fully Automated! #solarpunk#ttrpg !
Do you want to preorder a copy?
Well you can't! Because it's FREE! We don't want your money! It's 255 pages, 80k words, and contains original art and we're charging NOTHING! Because it's post-capitalist in content AND execution!
We'll share links to Itch.io and DriveThruRPG when it launches. Stay tuned!
If anyone is interested in playing d&d tonight, I have a spot open.
0:15am UTC (Universal Time)
1:15am BST (London)
8:15pm EDT (New York)
5:15pm (Seattle)
There use to be this thing called the FLAILSNAILS convention. Basically just some verbiage to say, bring any D&D character from any vaguely D&D system to the table and you can play.
So, any level 1 to level 3 character you want to bring. Holmes Basic, AD&D, 4th edition, 5th edition, whatever you want to bring. DM me if interested.
Another day, another calabash charm. This one, however, comes with a twist.
It's very similar to the brass one I last posted¹, but this time it's better for my intended purpose. Because this one is intended to be an emergency supply for some important components I bought.

This chapter felt so long when we were posting it, it's kinda funny seeing it all wrapped up and easy to repost.
