Hi! I am HauntedPuppets. I am an 23 year old indie game dev and video game musician.

I am also disabled including monochromacy aka “total colourblindness” meaning i can’t see colour.

I am working on a big game project that will be out later this year!

Follow me to see what happens!

Hey everyone, so life happened. And I am very unsure if or when either of my projects the smaller one or larger one will be finished or available for demo. I took scope creep and shot myself in the foot with it. I thought I could do it and I apologize for letting you guys down.

Check out this TTRPG! It is so easy and simple and is almost completely customizable!

#ttrpg #TTRPGsofBluesky #ttrpgsky #vekarittrpg #indiegm #indiegame #itchio
74 pages, final count before covers which can be done later, as printing books is not in the budget rn

HOWEVER!

This means you can finally have the full PDF, and I can start working on homemade physicals. Is done. Enjoy

Oh yeah btw

Vekari is not the only game getting physical copies for pride

Very small run of 2 carts (my third shell came damaged ✌️😔) with more later, they will go up in my Ko-Fi on the 6th if they do not sell in person

Also if you are a member on my Ko-Fi, you get first dibs on the cassette cases. They went up last night. They go public on the 6th!

I will be putting up a series of small updates throughout the week to catch up as I'm behind on updating this, took a break after the Poltersprite grind. Lots of quests to update 👀

How this works:

• Read the story parts posted for each character
• Cast a vote on the poll at the end of each one to help the characters decide what to do next
• Explore the site and wait a couple weeks for me to check the results and post the next set of story parts

Each part is only about a 5 minute read tops, it's free

This entire game is like one big TTRPG open to anyone, but on a website. You are the players, I (the dev) am the GM. It is messy and weird and fun and we're all progressing this story together, part by part, quest by quest.

It is HIGHLY addictive and must be used with caution. Also finding a clean source is important as some scrappers will lace it with spare bathroom chemicals so they can loot your body later! There are businesses that will check supply for free if asked to help prevent the risk of death.

Purple Ghostvine is a waxy substance that users melt down and inject into themselves and is used widely for pain relief, certain immune system disorders, recreationally, and, in the case of Iliana and Kori, in lab experiments to see if it can be used to help treat severe mental disorders. 🧵

So glad you asked!

In Vekari, there are a few pain relief options from direct suppression of pain responses in the nervous system using specially tuned cyberware, to certain spells, to a commonly used street drug called Purple Ghostvine. 🧵
Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there;

I'm gonna assume that pain exists in most of y'all's settings, so-

What kind of pain relief options exist in your world?

Does healing magic relieve pain? Or is that a specific spell? Are there drugs, and are they addictive?

I make you cool things and put most of them up to enjoy for free so as many people as possible can have my games and art and music as potential comfort during the shitshow that is everything

I love making free art and games for everyone to enjoy especially through the times we've had and are having.

Unfortunately, I am bound by the laws of my mortal body and require something called "food" to continue doing so.

Korvak Lis is a crow-person former a venturer turned taxidermist.
Mike Assette is a shark-person who runs a music shop 🤭
Amanus *was* human but was turned into a mutant. He appears humanoid with a screen for a face until you have higher perception, then things get messy.
Do you have any nonhuman characters in your book? Tells us a bit about them and the role they play in the story! (Dwarves/elves/gnomes/etc fall under "humans" here, give me your aliens, your furries, your monsters) #WritingPrompt

Use your silly little autocomplete on roids and tell everyone around you to suck it up. Be the asshole you wanna see in the world. Or consider fucking not. At least until this shit can be used ethically without jeapordizing your neighbors.

Why do I need to be faster let's start there maybe if this entire thread is too complicated to parse.

Bc it certainly wouldn't be for the benefit of my art. My art would look worse than if I just made it myself. You're sacrificing quality for speed in self expression— why?
