mastodon 4.7.3Creating TTRPGs of many genres. I particularly like: Solo games, the #NSR side of #OSR, lyric games, zines that look cool, making maps, DIY. Trying to learn to be better at art.

I've added about 50 new images + variations to my public domain art pack.
This set of images are all edits of the work of Johann Wagner (https://artvee.com/artist/johann-friedrich-wagner/) and are mostly castles, ruins, and a few other structures like arches, bridges and towns.
If you remember the public domain images I was modifying, I put them up on itch. They are also CC0. Hopefully someone finds them useful for their projects, blog, etc.
I'd also like to put them up somewhere that's a bit more convenient for people to look through without making an account and downloading a zip file - maybe that will eventually be my website but right now I don't have a great way of doing that
still don't have energy to do a lot of ttrpg stuff, but I'm back to editing public domain art
I feel like things look a bit less dated if you cut them out of their original context enough

#ttrpg I'm sorry I am subjecting the hashtag to this
cyberpunk heist concept where all the rich people have AI and robots in their homes, but they're all secretly controlled by remote human operators because they never got the AI working, so you have to achieve some goal by taking over a variety of increasingly impractical gadgets inside a billionaire's compound
I had this idea for a Cairn lifepath generator where there are three stages of life and you roll 1d6 for your stats at each stage, and also get appropriate items.
It has not been playtested, it's barely been proofread, but I've been having a lot of fun generating guys

I wrote a blog post defining "grounded fantasy". At least how I see it - I'm sure it's the sort of thing everyone could come up with their own definition of.
Here's a blog post about what zines are, why that's important, and how that relates to other conversations about how to create things free of corporate control.

I wasn't planning to spend a few hours updating my webring and for some reason making it randomize the order of websites and then adding in a bunch of blogs that I also follow, but I did
did a few more (first three taken from last image)
I'm trying to figure out how to edit public domain art to use it in other contexts - here removing the people, camels and most of the architecture
I maybe should have read a tutorial or something to see how it's generally done, in this case I just copy pasted bits of the image from elsewhere and pasted over it
Here's a (free) solo game I made some time ago. It was an experiment in making a solo adventure/point crawl, a sort of OSR type Choose Your Own Adventure that you can play in your browser.
I have this idea for game mechanics where combat is like 90% centered around morale rolls and getting the most favourable possible morale roll before combat
Something with lots of hirelings
No idea if it will be fun - this will probably be more a blog post than like a real game I intend to play
Would you be interested in a TTRPG (or game, or vaguely adjacent community) specific pixelfed server? I still don't know if this is something I would actually do
