Making a cheese dip with chipotle glaze for Thanksgiving, and watching A Knight's Tale in the kitchen. -and damn, thinking about Them. Someday, you'll get your game, guys.

There are several hazards in CARD DRIVES, like ICE. ICE cards have no suit, no value, and can't be modded. They clog up your deck and if you ever have 3 or more in hand, you flatline. Find out more next week: www.kickstarter.com/projects/not...

BOUNDLESS SPACE: Finished up the example character sheet (and almost all of 30 starting abilities). This weekend will be for A.) Family, B.) Food & wine, C.) Revisiting the space travel and brain-hacking rules, to make sure they're not ridiculously game-breaking.

SOLARCRAWL: With the planet arts mostly painted, now it's on to a variety of internal color splashes. This will be the header image for the system-neutral rules and how to do planetary exploration. I've been working on this game for years now, and it's a relief to see the finish line within sight.

While I'm thinking about Spencer's stuff. The latest edition of the RAID playtest has got my wheels turning. You can enjoy some excellent Gila design, but for me it conjurs Muspel as a vast riveted iron & steaming grates under an Yggdrasil-shaped arcology. More of a grungy, euro take on the genre.

BOUNDLESS SPACE: Not too exciting today, but you've got to put the character sheet together at some point. Since this is a very cyberpunk/Ghost in the Shell future setting, we're linking the last few hit points to your character's talents and abilities--they can be hacked!

Do not miss out on this one, solo fans.

Only £580 left to fund this game! I was going to do a thread on which Pokémon exemplify the various playbooks but I got stuck on the Faithful because Pokémon are beyond the light of God.

I'll post this one, too, since it's out of my normal wheelhouse. Here's a character of demonic heritage getting a dose of "Martyr's Blood" for Eric Lazure's upcoming expansion for Daggerheart! My original sketch had much more junk in the trunk, but this site has taught me that's a Goblin thing.

Woof. Almost posted about politics. I think we can all agree on who we'd like to see fired into the sun, and no one needs my attempts to be pithy about that.

SOLARCRAWL: Continuing the work of the nine base planets. Today we get to the gas giant Vent, and the shattered alien artifact orbiting in its rings. A fairly empty composition, since I'll have to put a ton of word boxes and locations to explore in and over this piece.

Get you an APOCALYPSE FRAME at PAX!

I finished the first full rules pass on this today. Next up is stress testing the space combat, and making a character sheet! (You may not believe it, but this is how I design. Got to see the whole thing on the page to make it work.)

I have way too many things to promote. I'm going to end up diluting my message! 😓 Let's start with the Kickstarter for GRAVITY, shall we, which is doing much better since the self-pity boost last weekend. Still need £640 to fund though -- that's 32 more hard copy sales!

Boundless Space: Making the scary monsters of the Eridani Belt today. I'm thinking that space combat will be much like normal conflict in Boundless, but with the addition of vast space ranges, multiple actions for a crewed ship, and of course, torpedoes and boarding!

Hot damn, I've always wanted to run an Incal/Arzach, and it looks like it will finally happen! This piece by Linnea Sterte is incredible.

Anybody wants to hire me to make an isometric pixel art gothic tactical stealth rpg?? Or hire me as a pixel artist in general. #pixelart

Yes! We missed the PaxU deadline, but keep your eyes out for magical card assassins in the near future, folks.

It's all coming together, bit by bit. I should have space conflicts and a character sheet in line by the end of the week, and then, who knows?

boundless spaces NPCs!

I'm going to have to draw some fucked up little guys.

Laying out some NPCs for that Boundless Space game today. I can draw little space guys all day long, but really wish I could outsource the writing. The pain of staring at the names I come up with, willing something better to emerge.

Hell yes. I'm going to save that last one for the next time we get a "Without Downloading an image, where are you at?" Thread.

Running up some NPCs for Boundless Space today.

I was playing Hollow Knight: Silksong and thought: "You know what #ttrpg would emulate this well? RUNE by @gilarpgs.bsky.social." So I'm making a hack that does just that! SHELL, a Hollow Hack of RUNE, is coming soon to my itch.io page!

Here are some more pictures of Midnight Muscadines! The Wanderlustian solo journal, double sided map, and the coloring book!

Good Game. cannibalhalflinggaming.com/2025/03/17/s...

Boundless Space art for you all today, as I can't share commission work, just yet. I'm thinking about putting some bright holographic billboards around the asteroid belt's little boomtown station. What kind of far future amenities do you all think that Railhead should have on offer?

Neeeeedles.

Damn, that looks sexy as hell, Spencer and Mike!

Everytime I go to make a small game, I feel like I've got to give you all some really decent art to look at. -and then I end up drawing the individual windows on a space city. This is going to take a minute.

Incredible stuff, coming from Munkao.

Truth.

Such a good take on the Knight of Echoes! (Original art below for reference)

I hear all of the cool kids are doing it.

New episode of Black Armada Tales is out! In Ex Tenebris, we play a ragtag team of investigators, protecting the Republic of Stars from terrifying supernatural threats. We have stumbled on a horrifying cult and hopefully we are about to break the case wide open. #actualplay #realplay #ttrpg

Carved in Stone is officially out! In this comprehensive setting guide you'll be able to see, touch, taste, hear and smell your way through everything that modern-day scholars currently know of the enigmatic culture of the Picts, from the perspective of someone living in the late 7th Century.

POCGamer building lore here, folks. (I should adopt a used-spaceship dealer persona for these illustrations, too. That's a solid bit!)

For those of you wondering what I'm on about *this time*.

All right fine. You all like the fish! I finished up the front side of the ship sheet and I guess I'm making a space trading game. (Combining the Boundless rules by Rene Pier Deshaies with the card trading rules from an earlier prototype.) Next up should be a port of call.

Nothing makes your day like hearing that someone has not only read, but *played* your game! Thank you!

I went down a bit of a rabbit hole yesterday on ships-as-characters for a project. Trying to find a way to make attractive, but also useful art assets for a game.

Went ahead and put a bunch of my most popular work - including my Mothership class, my sci-fi gig economy solo RPG (and its Online-focused expansion!), and my cyberpunk microgame trilogy - on sale through the end of November! itch.io/s/166208/thu...

Working on a lines for a pair of very large images today, both about space and d20's but quite different in character. I don't know about the other would-be designers out there, but I have to hop around from one project to another to prevent burnout.
