Gnome Cap Gaming | Origin of Infinity

"Why have dragons in this universe?" Why not have dragons in this universe? #ttrpg #trpg #ttrpgdesign #rpgdesign #tabletop

My dream is to make this an actual studio, where we have a few artists and game designers hired. The desire is to create worlds and stories that welcome everyone.

"I only take inspiration from the greatest of musical melodies... and yes the Vengaboys party album is considered that. Pre Alpha 3 testing is soon; species are being fleshed out." - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming #tabletop #rpgdesign #rpg

New title for the Project is Origin of Infinity!! Finally decided on a name. #ttrpg #tabletop #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming #rpgdesign

“Implemented new combat rules for Pre-Alpha 3. Started work on a healer class. Looking to expand species text and add base building in” - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming #tabletop

“Project S Pre Alpha V3 is in the works. Major changes to the action economy and further testing of aptitude contests and checks.” - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #rpgdesign #tabletop #tabletopgaming

Just so there is no confusion, Gnome Cap Gaming is against AI, forever and for always. Human hands create my work and always will

Thank you so much for this! It's been a struggle trying to find a comprehensive document for ttrpgs. Appreciate all the work you do!

MAKE ACCESSIBLE TTRPGs! by IKO

We've updated the "Make Accessible TTRPGs" zine, cleaner PDFs, removed text backgrounds.
It's free and a great starting point to think accessible design.

"First playtest completed. Refining Project S Version 3, now with new lore compendium and base building mechanics." - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletop #tabletopgaming

Play test 1 tomorrow for Project S! The Archivist is busy planning for the big day. #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletop #tabletopgaming

"Realizing I need a separate lore compendium document..." - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming #tabletop

Lets take a look at four of the eight goddesses of Skies Above. Niamh Goddess of Light, Gaia Goddess of Earth, Aithne Goddess of Fire and Anuthis Goddess of Water! A lot of the lore revolves around the Goddesses and peoples relationship with them.

My main WIP is a podcast that I'm planning on launching in October for the world of Kalidria which has been a WIP for YEARS. Here is a sample of some of the lore from the world: ghost-of-kalidria.obsidianportal.com/wikis/destru...

I am working on my first draft of the character sheet for this game. Working on the first adventure module for the Pre-Alpha playtest happening this weekend! - The Archivist

"Creating a character sheet is very difficult. Most recent patch went live on Sunday. Another upcoming patch before playtest 1" - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming #tabletop

"Currently working on developing an encounter for a pre-alpha level 1 playtest. Working on an interesting early level boss with two tiered lair & minions. Only have 2 players participating currently and looking for one extra. I am really excited for how this system is turning out" - The Archivist

"Weekend Patch expected ETA is Sunday" - The Archivist #TTRPG #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming #tabletop

Remember Dicebreaker? - Fari RPGs It was a spark that helped ignite entire careers in indie tabletop design, mine included. So, do you remember Dicebreaker? Dicebreaker was a TTRPG and board game-focused journalism site where...

Does anyone remember Dicebreaker?

I miss that site so much, and even though we have new sites now (incl Rascal), I'm very worried about how difficult it will be for indie designers to succeed given the current state of the hobby.

“This species thus needs a government and faction system that can cater to every subset of the species. Which involves a long and bloodied history of war and unyielding diplomacy. Figuring out their physiology has been the other challenge.” - The Archivist 2/2

“Currently, it is the beast species and their society which have become the most complicated. This species is separated into 4 major groups: avian, mammalian, reptilian, and amphibian. And then they are further divided into different categories within those groups.” - The Archivist 1/2

“Today, refinement for playtesting continues. The galaxy grows larger and parameters more succinct.” - The Archivist #TTRPG #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming

“Playtesting for novice adventurers can commence soon” - The Archivist #TTRPG #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming

"Further adjustments to crafting and base building." - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletopgaming

"Traits have been adjusted for level 1 combat testing... the descriptions are getting there. Damn this quill." - The Archivist

"Current adjustments: Species Traits. Current additions: descriptions for said Species Traits" - The Archivist #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #tabletop

People don’t understand how large of a following 100 people is either. Put 100 people in a room and see how hard it is to navigate. 100 people are all there because of your amazing work. Small communities are what keep projects and media alive and running.
