That feeling when your small indie game makes some money that you can now use to buy small indie games that make some money so their creators can buy small indie games that make some money so their creators can buy small indies games that make some money so-

I loved writing this review and I think trad gamers looking for more narrative games would really like this.

Today in Night Owl X,

We're working on our idle animations for NPCs, breathing some life into the world.

Really enjoying how much of a piece of shit this NPC comes across as now.

Strange to think I released my first ever #TTRPG book over 3 months ago!

In Death was a labour of love that I'm very proud of, and it's surreal it out there in the world and in the hands of players.

To any who've picked up a copy already, thank you and I hope you enjoy it.

Today in Night Owl X,

I started adding in talking animations for NPCs, which will come in tandem with some more complex idle animations to breathe a bit more life into the world.

Today in Night Owl X,

I spent some time working on the Barber Shop's "Secret Menu" - a slew of hidden hairstyles for players to try.

Don't Fear The Reaper: Handling Mortality With 'In Death' TTRPG - The Fandomentals Whether or not Death scares you or you're fascinated by it, the new TTRPG In Death is sure to spark some curiosity when playing in an afterlife.

Using @chaosium.bsky.social 's Basic Roleplaying System, In Death from @jacobdimwood.bsky.social finds a bridge between trad and story tabletop gaming as much as one between life and death. @jellyfishlines.itch.io explores these connections in his review:

Today in Night Owl X,

These dumb point pop ups took me WAY longer than they realistically should have.

This week in Night Owl X,

I made these little door prefabs for the two existing shops. One takes Nox to the Clipper Wings barber shop to choose new hairstyles, and the other to Hoot Cups coffee shop to purchase movement upgrades.
