I'm gonna be posting less on here in future, if you wanna follow me, I'm on Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/chaocl…

Just finished my first game of Gate by @GreyGnomeGames - Incredible fun! Highly recommended. I haven't played many solo board games, but of the ones I have played, this sits at the top.

This is fantastic!

@JohnGritland @sys_crash Thank you so much for the kind words!!

@Chaoclypse @sys_crash Even just owning your art is a priveldge you produce such beutiful work. I got the original bundle to use but even though I havent yet I also love looking at the pieces

I added 192 art pieces to my Pay What You Want artpack for you to use in your projects, commercial or otherwise! This is quite a major update - the original art pack had 19 art pieces. Make cool stuff, and share this if you can :) chaoclypse.itch.io/chaos-art-pack…

I made a video on free art resources for tabletop RPGs! Featuring lots of amazing artists such as @GreyGnomeGames @DysonLogos @DenUngeHerrHolm @strega_flora @EmielBoven, along with where to get high quality public domain art! Make something cool today!! youtube.com/watch?v=002DLq…

@CastleGrief Thanks so much pal!!

@Chaoclypse showing incredible generosity and goodwill here to all creatives! Share this post!!!

always fun squiggling out some random shapes then rendering them! not completely sure if i'll finish this but there's something nice about rendering a large piece from left to right

heres the process vid, i drew like 10 goblins before deciding on this one

i got this book today, have been absolutely DEVOURING it, you can probably see it in my drawing lmao

New Paint Tiles update coming soon :) mrmotarius.itch.io/paint-tiles

@MrmoTarius This is BEAUTIFUL!

I'm not saying "never treat the wilderness as a dungeon-crawl" - what I'm trying to say is that it's worth really taking into consideration what you're abstracting out and, more importantly, why. Hope that makes sense! I rarely post theory but this has been on my mind. (3/3)

I see differences as friction/texture. They're ways to restrict the more freeform nature of the game, but in doing so, make it believable. Complete unification implies complete abstraction, and when everything is abstract, it's harder to see the world you're painting. (2/3)

I've been reading about treating hexcrawls as dungeoncrawls and while I think procedure unification has the benefit of making the game more approachable for new GMs, it's important to consider why we have those procedures in the first place. (1/3)

@Psychic_Driving Same here... wishing you good luck.

Cross fingers for me today. Can't get into it, but I have some stressful stuff to deal with

I will be closing off new commissions until the end of February in preparation for an intensive month-long medical procedure. Feel free to still message me if you want a commission done, but I can't start on any new ones until after February!
