​I loved this game! The artwork for all the Lovecraftian monsters is fantastic, the writing was pretty funny, and the main character was sweet. It's VERY short, but still fits in some touching moments.

Out of curiosity, what's the beef with people who have blue checkmarks? I thought it just meant Bluesky verified them as a celebrity or something like that. Is there some sinister connotation to it? I'm wondering if it's something I should be worried about when I look at somebody's account.

I hadn't thought about it that way, but I love that idea. I've had supernatural beings with their own myths in my games, but I haven't thought of it as a philosophy to approaching setting design. Neat!

Ooo, love the use of perspective on this piece. Great work.

You're playing Everhood?! I love that game! By the way, I think you bring a lot of good energy to your videos!

The art looks great! What's their story? I was just hearing about that game system a few days ago, so this is a neat coincidence.

All of this is fantastic advice, a lot of which I'd give myself, and some ideas I hadn't thought of.

Oh, I like that concept, that they're kind of a family. Do you have a write-up about Oddities In Engress anywhere?

Paranoia is a somewhat early example of that. In Paranoia XP (and maybe earlier editions, I'm not sure), damage is rated on a range, somewhere between "bruised" and "obliterated", with "dead" being just before "obliterated". All weapons have their own range of harm they're capable of inflicting.

Honestly, agreed about the mechanic. All of this is super cool: the animation, the underlying mechanic, giving players what they want at a cost. Love. It!

Oh, hey, I love the energy she's giving off. The way she tugs on her shirt accentuates the expressive vibe.

Oh, this is an interesting shot. I like the cutaway look.

Oh gosh, you're leagues ahead of me then! Just one campaign of 3e so far! I played the Power of Labyrinths. Ostensibly an investigator, but didn't get to do much before THAT game petered out. I'd love to reprise Amber sometime.

*hesitant, with slight trepidation* Does she still like pancakes?

This turned out great! Good work!

I would have had to have restarted the entire game to get it, which is unfortunate, because the endings that I got left me wanting something more concrete. Thankfully I found a video by @lilithsaga.bsky.social going through how to get it.

​Loved this game. The art's fantastic, the music's great, the atmosphere is spooky and melancholy and sometimes hopeful. It's not very difficult and the pacing's great. My one regret is that I couldn't get the secret ending.

What were the highlights?

@snowlupinwood.bsky.social Do you have your TTRPG works listed somewhere? I'd love to see what you've written.

This looks like the last thing a person's eyes see when they look up at the strange shadow cast over the moon, if they aren't fast or clever with their words.

His surroundings are so beautiful, and yet he's so sad. I had to zoom in the see the tears of blood and then I felt awful for him. I wonder what's happened.

I can see why. It has a gritty sci-fi vibe (the paneled metal walls, the twisted pipes, the leaning buildings) and a sense of horror (the monster in the background, the look of trepidation on the foreground character). You did very good work on this one.

This picture looks great! I love her smile and her relaxed pose.

Oooo, I like how much is going on here: the purple demons(?) coming out of the cigar, the intense expression, the peacock feather. Fantastic!

Intimidating. The way she stares at the viewer, the tentacular swirl of hair, and the awesome blood moon. Love your work.

Of what?! I literally can't tell. 😂

Oh, I love this! How the pole itself bends, how Ruby hugs it, how the dollar bills float around in the background. Incidentally, what's Ruby's story? I'm not familiar with the character?

These look great! It's challenging to draw large breasts and give them a sense of appropriate heft and proportionality.

I see you did an expansion for Far Roofs. Have you played Nobilis or Chuubo's? I've read them, and played in the former. They're both games I want to return to. Looking forward to Nobilis 4e.
