More Lee J Ames studies. Don't really care for these ones, but always trying to get out of my comfort zone.

I LOVE making random lists of flavour content for #ttrpgs. Bug & Claw is no exception. I foresee many more of these on their way.

Watched the new #Frankenstein and was surprised. Way better than I expected. Bad in different ways than I expected. Jacob Elordi was great. The CG, especially of animals like wolves, was absolutely terrible. Like it was from 25 years ago. The traditional effects were amazing.

If some of the way XP is awarded is randomized between adventures and milestones, players will be free to act more like they want instead of in a singular, pushed direction like combat. Something I definitely want in a #ttrpg, which is why I wanted to try it...

Thankful to my friends for helping play-test #ttrpg Bug & Claw. I share some of the feedback I collected in #Devlog 47 that helped shape the game.
Playtesting character builds - Devlog #47 - Bug & Claw
As we finally come to the close of our 3-year long D&D campaign, my friends and I are excited to try something new. I am lucky to have this group of pals, who have been pushing me to finish Bug & Claw so we can play together. While I thought the alpha would be completed

Fred stared out over Silkhold, observing the pink hue of silk that helped hold many of the buildings together, coalescing brighter towards the center of town.

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

🦠 💎 Infection and resonance are two concepts that effect most things in #ttrpg Bug & Claw.

The first thing you do when creating a character is roll to determine your starting infection and resonance values. This will effect everything else.

I’ve done so many things that people told me I couldn’t do, but the thing is that I let those few naysayers get to me enough that I dragged my feet starting out and faced years of doubt and now regret. I don’t want that to happen to other folks. I want to enable you.

This place is quickly becoming the art community I hoped it would be. I hope it just continues to grow and grow.
