Trails Weaver

It’s #SelfPromoSaturday (at least in Ukraine 😁) so I’m screaming into the void:
I made a GM tool to stop losing my own notes.

What cool stuff are you making?

Gimme 👇

#TTRPG #DnD #CallOfCthulhu #Art #Release #NewRelease #Stream #Kickstarter #Backerkit #DMsguild #indiedev #DriveThruRPG #itchio

Thank you! The visuals on demo are 5 months old, so now it looks much cooler! 😛

I can also remove the promo reply, if it’s an issue 🤝

Totally understandable, not asking to share, but just wanted to show what I got.

Yeah, used those images for example games, I don’t have budget for buying art, but I also don’t propagate any AI artwork.

Have a great Saturday and thank you anyway ❤️

Glad to be here :)

Doing a little bug fixing, added progress dots, UI re-arranging, refactoring, and housekeeping.
Code Jamz: Baby Blue - MILES

Then... making Gyoza!

Also growing is hard as hell 💀
And I suck at marketing much more than at codding 😁 (at least for now, but lets see if I get better there)

But yeah, I was postponing & re-scheduling release ~5 times 😂😂😂

User base is growing => more feature requests => more ideas & challeges to tackle 😁

Made a few big updates recently!

Have big features planned for next quarter, like game export, AI-assistant integration in Text Editor & like a gazilion of other things 😅

But yeah... I. NEED. MORE. USERS

Smart move with having "text messages". Yeah, I suppose comma will work perfectly here!

Tried it out & I love it. Awesome job.

A few ideas:

- Parsing "2d6 + 2" (with spaces) same way "2d6+2" is parsed 🙏

-Do you plan to support more than 6 macros, by the way? 🤔

It’s always “one more update” (was stuck in this loop myself with my app😂😂😂)

Will check it out!

Thinking of running an SCP homebrew. Might include the Antimemetics Division (I forget what it is). Plot revolves around ██████.

Q: Would Delta Green be a good fit for this kinda thing?

i’ve run lots of CoC but never tried DG 🤔

Have you run anything SCP-related?

#TTRPG #DeltaGreen #scpfoundation

That looks DOPE! 😍
Any ETA to production? :)

this is a great breakdown. i got so tired of trying to wrangle my notes from like 4 docs and some napkins 😁😁😁, that I just built my own app for it lol.

Structure's actually pretty close to what i ended up with too 👍

Organizing Your Campaign Notes (Without Going Full Spreadsheet Goblin) Struggling with scattered GM notes? Learn how to organize your TTRPG campaign efficiently with practical tips, tools, and templates that actually work.

I found my old GM note that said:

“grumpy guy, hates guards, gave map??”

I had no freaking clue what it meant.

So I wrote a post about finally organizing my campaign notes like a grown-up GM.
