Not a new post but as of 2020-11-06 I’ve updated the About Me on my blog.
I also forgot to promote The Indigo Saint’s Cathedral, the first chapter of what was supposed to be a sort of “anti-Halloween” short story. Not anti in the sense of being opposed to Halloween, but more like, opposite of it, in some ways.
Here’s the transcript of my interview with The HardBoiled GMShoe’s Office for my Kickstarter for Maximum Recursion Depth!
I haven’t been going out of my way to promote my blog posts lately, but I did something kind of unique with this one, or I think so anyway, so I wanted to give it some promotion.
This post is quite a bit different than my normal stuff, or actually any blogosphere post I can think of, seriously! And I’m really hoping to get some participation on it, I think you’ll see why when you give it a look.
Anyway, maybe it’s too weird or too up its own ass, but I think there could be something here, so please check it out!
Weird & Wonderful Player Design Patterns (pt.1?)
Inspired by my I am a Bad Player thread. A blog post that lays out an approach to teaching Players how to play like we teach GMs how to GM; not just tips and tricks, but actual tools, in the form of Player Design Patterns that Players can apply when they game.
In this first post I just give one Player Design Pattern and one GM Design Pattern (for comparison), but I hope to post about more Player Design Patterns and write other Player-oriented posts in the future if people find this interesting or useful at all.
Game Design Patterns: Social Intrigue
I discuss my concept of Social Intrigue games, given feedback I’ve received both as a GM and as a player.
5d4 NPCs Generated with my Character Formula
A bunch of hopefully interesting NPCs and a means of making more of them.
I haven’t been super active on social media or blogging or other creative things lately because I recently moved, but I polished off this old draft inspired by a Chris McDowall / Bastionland post (linked inside) and I’m fairly happy with it.
A revisit of a very old blog post of mine where I come up with new takes on traditional fantasy species. The original post was not great, but these I think are much better.
Lost track here, there have been a few more posts:
Tunnels & Trolls / Mark of the Odd Hack
Has anyone else seen this anime!?
A generator for Reincarnation Ritual Recursion Attachments for Maximum Recursion Depth.
