Hey! I've been getting a large influx of followers today... so lemme introduce myself!

I'm Nick! I'm a 40 yr old #ttrpg #gamedev from CT! I write games because I want to arm people with joy to combat the despair the world tries to drown us in.

My sister is home for the holiday. Which normally, great. She's one of my favorite people. Except one thing.

I was showing her a game dev problem I was having and it went like this:

"Why don't you ask ChatGPT?"
"Cause fuck Gen AI?"
"Ok then, get left behind"
"I can do this without the theft"

Possibly the raddest modification in any game, period.

Game is "Void Breaker" a FPS roguelike featuring highly kinetic movement (slides, grapple hooks, double jumps, etc) and a HUGE focus on environmental destruction (you literally heal by chucking shit at enemies). It's pretty rad.

I need like a Fallout 3 style open world game that lets me walk around in first person with a big fuck off gun and right wrongs and stuff and I feel like there's so little out that isn't published by developers I have an ethical stance against (ubisoft and ea specifically).

help?

So, I'm going back to dice matching on ASTROLITH.

Each enemy card shows a specific combination of dice, and you need to spend (discard) that exact combination to overcome it.

That does mean enemies with the same number of dice (2, 3, or 4) have the same difficulty.

I really don't like anything about D&D's alignment system, but I appreciate its power as a shorthand, and I'd love to do something that could work similarly, and this is a swing at that.

I'd like to submit to #ttrpg court (and @theneoncaster.bsky.social ) that cronching is a form of cheating at the table. At least if you use the same die over a long period due to your teeth wearing the die down and thus, changing the distribution of weight of the die and affecting probability.

Semi related. One of my first experiences with racism was getting pigeonholed into being Roadblock whenever we played G.I. Joe.

My mom got me a Roadblock action figure before this happened that I was very proud of.

Didn't know why being Roadblock had me f'd up. I just wanted to be Snake Eyes.
So, what if I got to talk to my child self and told him "So one day you're gonna make money by selling adults entire books of ideas on how to play pretend more like you"

I think he'd be proud, but also confused as to why I didn't ensure he got to be his favorite TMNT everytime instead.

One of the most frustrating things about social media is seeing someone in my orbit make a post like "Ugh, are we really having a discourse about (bad take)?" and then despite me searching I literally can't find anyone who posted that bad take. I only ever see the aftermath, never the real discourse

When GTA6 are comes out I'm pretty sure the joke can continue as "X coming out after GTA6 is crazy!" cause how could you be THAT late?

Just got my flu and covid vaccine at my local walk in clinic, uninsured for $44 all together.

They needed a vaccine record and all I had on my was my HPV vaccine record from my gyno and they counted it.

It’s okay to get it now if you still need it. Some protection is better than none

GO GET IT
If you are uninsured and need vaccines, including an updated COVID vaccine, look at your local county health services website and find the county health clinics.

Many of them have a walk in vaccines once a week or so, or a mobile health can schedule where you can get up to date for $30 each one

#ttrpg... here me out!

I think I just came up with a solution for how I'll do mapping stuff in #ScarSeal!

A checkerboard. Red pieces are floors and Black Pieces are walls by default. The powers of game entities can push them around or shift the entire board with gravity matching the orientation

I think I'm gonna start streaming SoulFrame regularly. 6pm Fridays.

Also, I want to do a separate little side project. Don't know how much people would need it, but I've played with enough folks that seemed to need it: A basic primer to combat in action video games.
