Reached 10k words and 28 pages on my most recent project. Now I'm just filling out the leftover sections then it's time to rewrite almost all of it lol. Then maybe, it will be ready for play testing.

I added a fixed NPC into my WIP TTRPG for the GM to play as the most insufferable middle manager ever, it was surprisingly cathartic to write while still being a major role in the game.

I havent drawn in a long time so pardon the roughness, but roughing out the concepts for the weapons of the protagonists of my Scifi horror Despair. Introducing the Accutek II a compact Linear Fluid Sintering Projector basically a scifi pistol with a aim stabilizer and a LIDAR receiver under barrel.

Its been awhile but I finally wrote enough of an RPG idea to write an example of play. Still so much to write, but its at least digestible enough to get opinions on how it works.

Third 10 hour car trip up north in the last two months, three nights in hotels, then another 10 hours back. I'm going to eat so many sour gummy worms...

-Pulling out a soul wasn't easy, hell is naturally hostile and filled with horrors far beyond comprehensions, but through firepower anything is possible. If they could just keep their weapons hot and stay sane in the deepest despair maybe they could get someone to pull them out when the time comes?

-of profiting off this knowledge the paychecks wrote themselves. After all who wouldn't want to ensure their family member wasn't rotting in hell? Of course it wasn't cheap, or safe, to extract a soul from hell but then for the pay they were offering it made many people jump at the opportunity. [C]

Physicists didn't like the answer but we eventually found what was at the bottom of a black hole. It turns out the densest material ever discovered was despair, the pure condensed despair of the souls locked in hell. It took some time but like all things as soon as there was a financial means [cont]

Hellboy, Aliens, Silent hill, and Doom are strange bed fellows but it fills me with ideas.

Jay 🐸 @quidranae.bsky.social · Sep 28

In the middle of writing a root cause analysis and I have a fantastic campaign idea, but I cant do anything about it till I finish this project, darn it.

Just make it exist first, you can make it good later.

In rigging a Frog PNG-tuber I regret my artistic skills aren't good enough to draw a version hiding under a blanket just for scary games.

Jay 🐸 @quidranae.bsky.social · Mar 29

Building a new computer this coming week, and what better way to celebrate than becoming a Frog tuber on twitch! (there are so many better ways, but I'm odd.) Maybe some Frog Detective or POE2 not sure yet.

Jay 🐸 @quidranae.bsky.social · Mar 18

I actually like the current setting I'm writing for but I'm stuck in an editing loop because I'm trying to avoid making lists of equipment and their costs. Partially because I'm lazy, and partially because it takes away from the actual character part of character creation.

#Writing is a weird hobby, as the more you write, the more convinced you become that you're a terrible writer, while at the same time building the skills to fix your janky, never-ending pointless sentences that seem to run forever and struggle to find exactly where the full-stop deserves to go.

GV game 3: Hinode (me) vs Tiamat (lokas) you ever wonder if the choice of one wrong Mech going against a very similar force will cost you the game? Well it will! Melee is awesome, only melee is... annoying, you are nearly always out of position. My fault for over-specializing.

Jay 🐸 @quidranae.bsky.social · Mar 3

After three months of depression and not writing it feels good to get back into it.

Jay 🐸 @quidranae.bsky.social · Mar 2

For info I played a new weapon Id never used before (charge blade) and played the entire time in MP with my wife. Never felt cheated by the monsters, faints were definitely my fault/gear prep. Performance was fine and I am only on a 2060 super.

Jay 🐸 @quidranae.bsky.social · Mar 2

20 hours into MH WIlds, finished the tutorial (credits rolled) Overall good, didn't feel too easy, fights were just shorter compared to World. Whether this is due to QOL improvements (wounds/tracking) or reduced health I dunno. MP is still a mess and there is just no excuse for it in a modern game.
