ive designed the only perfect system where you need never make rulings, settling the age old debate of whether rulings are better than rules. the game is 1000 pages long and absolute dogshit.

thinking abt a minor rebrand now that i have a second game on the horizon. i dont mind using my name for stuff but i think having a snappy imprint that isn't 100% coupled to that sounds fun? my For Business Purposes name is darling thresher games but i picked it ages ago and im not in love w it. hmm

I am always in awe of creators who doggedly continue to find the shape of the—well—THING that they're trying to create, and I strive to follow their lead more. To cherish all the fragmented notes, hopeful ideas and just plain dead-ends; to return to the material again and again.
