Quit yapping and keep turning the TTRPG crank at the TTRPG factory!

Hard agree. Mailing lists are the last bulwark of creators trying to reach their audience.

Some billionaire fascist buys the platform your audience is on? Write an email. Or you get banned because the platform you used replaced their staff with an AI tool? Email.

Yeah, I think so much of our advertising is limited to social media - that if someone just isn't very online, they can miss whole things like that. Or, you know, they have like a big life event and miss your announcements for a while.

Second this: I've had people who have described themselves as 'fans' πŸ™ and have said whatever I make, they want - and they've missed entire crowdfunding campaigns before and done late pledges instead.

I learned this from a breakdown video about Batman & Robin on the Sega Genesis! youtu.be/Z0S92Fs5gOg

I can use this old technique to give a 3D effect in my animations

Animation practice: this 'tunnel' is made from one image only slightly wider than the screen. A combination of skewing and translating the image right to left, then duplicating and repositioning it - makes the 3D tunnel effect.

Have you run Wages of Sin yet? I'm making an animation about it and want to hear your thoughts.

If you're interested in discussing it with me either DM me on Bluesky or email me at wacomatrixo@gmail.com

These 'orbs' you did, from the light, that's a nice effect! I want to learn how to apply them.

Have you ever played my Groundhog Day inspired, time-looping #MothershipRPG module, Decagone?

I've got a limited number (half are gone already) available as add-ons for my current Kickstarter campaign: CAIN SUN - a Mothership scenario.

Check it out now: www.kickstarter.com/projects/wac...

Lesbians and mechs are cool, but I can't presume to 'control' them - can I be drinking buddies with them instead? 🍻

I'm doing a cross-collab with Joshua, if you back their awesome-looking project and CAIN SUN - you'll get a free one-shot we wrote together.

BLUESTAR: Bluesky as Galactic Setting β€” MEATCASTLE GAMEWARE Earlier this week, Theo Sanderson released a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users , visualized by follower patterns. Because I have some sort of cursed brain, my first thought was β€œ I wonder if I could...

Remember that cool map of Bluesky accounts from earlier this week? Well, I wrote a quick n' dirty guide on how to use it to create solar system for your own sci-fi TTRPG setting on the fly! Welcome to... BLUESTAR! meatcastlegameware.com/blog/2026/2/...

As part of my latest #mothershipRPG release, I've written a pocketmod hack where you play as corporations instead crew members. Health is money, visit the literal 'moral high-ground' and prevent investor panic.

Check out 'CORPOCIDE' on the CAIN SUN Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/wac...
