AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN

That's a great step! Next time will you submit it to a waking world agent?

It is starting to feel like a bit of a tipping point has been reached over here - good news if so.

Welcome back

Let's give this another go, maybe.

Coming soon: Jude's World A solo, tarot-based journaling game in which a plucky preteen protagonist works to reunite their warring parents

This campaign is creeping up on 50 followers. Can we get there by the end of the week? I hope so!

Jude’s World is a solo TTRPG where you’ll play as a kid who just wants to grow up cool and get their parents back together.

Sounds both easy and reasonable, right?

A mood board with a collection of nineties cultural references: Clarissa Explains it All, Fresh Prince of Bel Air, The Parent Trap, snap bracelets, friendship bracelets, locking diaries, game boy colour, fun fax, dream phone, and troll dolls

I could be brave reach out to games journalists and podcasters to promote my game OR I could sit in my room and create a mood board.

More play tests, more problems. My February newsletter is out now, including part 6 of my development diary for my upcoming solo TTRPG, Jude's World. buttonkin.com/newsletter/f...

Amazing how much the basing makes a difference! Also pictured: a slightly overdone attempt at OSL from lockdown days.

Honestly I'm mostly glad I finally finished a model 😅 I've been on again, off again with minis painting for years now, usually it feels like a chore but more recently I've come to enjoy the process :)

Still struggling to get to grips with individual figures 😅 Cassian's face is a bit of a 'mare but I'm generally happy with the rest! #swlegion

It was a minor miracle that I managed to make it work with my horrible sausage fingers

Thank you! The secret is very tiny masking tape 😅

Started painting some minis again, and finally put this Star Wars Legion A-A5 truck together! I was pleased with how that orange stripe turned out, though it's a simple thing I think it really makes it pop. Hopefully I can actually stick to this and keep completing more of my backlog!

That's ventriloquism

🥲

Like.. like a discus.

The disc

That you throw

Barbarian character accidentally pulling the entire Wheel of Fortune off its hinges, discus-ing it into the audience

Well, I'm calling dibs on this one.

Gelatinous cubes raining down from the ceiling!

I recognise that! (It isn't a print FYI)

Please change no. 3 into "wheel of fortune" over the course of the next 4-6 sessions

Button Kin Times: September 2023 Orbital Blues play report and development diary

Newsletter day! In this September issue I have a play report for my first Orbital Blues one shot and a first development diary entry for my new solo coming of age TTRPG about divorce. Cheery stuff!

Kenny and Amber look at the camera smiling. Amber's hands are up and presenting mock ups of MONSTROUS book and Tales of the Valiant Alpha Release.

Oh boy! I'm on camera! And I make a pretty neat food-themed dragon called The Gourmand using @cloudcurio.bsky.social's MONSTROUS and @koboldpress.bsky.social's Tales of the Valiant Alpha Release with guidance from @volfmyr.bsky.social.

Links to vid AND the pdf of the dragon below in the thread!

I was considering the same! Really fancy turning it into an audio log type deal - their Discord is full of people putting things out there if you're interested in works by others!

Dead Air has been sat on my shelf since the Kickstarter delivered; it's such a wonderful art piece I'm scared to sully it with my haphazard writing skills!

So like yeah any recommendations for TTRPG and boardgame creators/type folks please send them on, I wanna get CONNECTED
