What do you all think of my new RPG idea?

New character sheet greebling for mutananny. Yes, I'm still finishing it to spite you all, despite the gamefound crowdfunding being a profound and humiliating failure.

Super depressing.

More inclusive flowchart on the left, simpler flowchart on the right. I lean towards just putting the one on the right in the book because it gets the point across better.

In "Calvin's dad explains music" meme format as suggested by @levikornelsen.bsky.social

Hesitant followers requested more detail on the MUTANANNY system than I had expected, so I obliged with a figure. I honestly thought people would have more questions about the setting.

This was after my dev editor told me to tone it down a notch.

Our neighbor's kid(?), who I suspect may be some sort of changeling, dwarf, or C.H.U.D. He just digs holes in their yard and dwells in them. A little squinty popeye of a child glaring out at the world from his dirt mound. Non-human vibes.

Small things that cheer me up a lil.

Character sheet changes, the Attribute Mutation was changed to Terazome (genetic library of monstrosity), which my Dev editor liked a lot better. Avoids confusing it with plural Mutations, which are actual... Mutations stemming from the Terazome. Still nuts but more cleanly delineated.

My kid broke one of my d100 golf-ball-of-doom dice from long long ago in the before times. I just thought you all might like to see what is inside of these. Little plastic beads! It snaps back together but it is a bit fragile now.

More fun on reddit.

My fellow game designers do not like this answer.

I wonder why.

My Gamefound for Mutananny launched and for some reason all I can think about is that episode of Billy & Mandy where Billy turned into a super hero who shot yogurt from his armpits.

There's actually a lot of Pogo in MUTANANNY, now that I think of it. I read a lot of it as a kid and some stuck deep in my subconscious. See the vital soup cauldron and the garbage, particularly.

After a long and sobering degree of thought and playtesting, here is how the mutation changes I was considering should work. I am still enamored of rapid shape-shifter style mutation rather than birth builds, and as a result it has evolved into this first draft:

A sample demi-die I had printed for MUTANANNY. I think the green is a bit too dark and the details of the RNA loops around the pips didn't quite show how I wanted. I also thought it was going to be engraved lol. Not bad tho, but maybe back to the drawing board with this one.

Sample adventure map from MUTANANNY, or at least the first iteration of it. Marshes, beaches, piers, woods.

Back from a Downy Ocean Hon vacation. It was fun being in a place that I love despite being kind of tacky. Or because of it? Not sure. I do love OC tho.

(In my game MUTANANNY, this is all underwater)
