Hello Dungeon Denizens,
My next big project is Dungeon Local 001, a reverse Dungeon crawler for 2-6 players where you get to map out your dungeon home and make it safe after the death of a tyrannical dragon. You tell a story about a bunch of cool goblins, and at the end you have a dungeon ready to import into the World ...

Lots is happening in the land of Not Writing Games. I'm still working on MERGER. Finished playtesting recently and will be moving on to fleshing out the writing and layout next week. Also finishing up my work on Synthicide, collaborating on another game, and starting to plan my game for Zinequest in February....
2021-12-03 23:18:24 +0000 UTC View PostWell, we've done it. Funded in 2 days. Reached the last stretch goal today. More funding means a nicer product and that I get to keep the lights on longer. What a weird and frankly exhausting 2 weeks. I had people telling me running a KS took its toll, but wowee. Those first few days were a write off.
I'm feeling good n...
2021-11-22 19:11:13 +0000 UTC View PostHell Everyone,
Finally put all my notes from my various playtesting sessions together. I now have a prototype for MERGER ready (attached to this post) which I can further playtest and refine and add flavour. This is very bare bones, not at all resembling the final product. It's enough to make a character, and get a gene...

Well, we got there.
MERGER funded in a little under 36 hours on Kickstarter. Wow. What a load off my shoulders that is, haha. Phew. Gosh. Woof.
OKAY. Well, thanks for everyone who supported the project or shared it around. Like I said, y'all will be getting the digital edition when I publish in the next few months...
