"Rules-lite, shoes-lite, flavour-heavy TTRPG.
Southeast Asian fantasy. Flavours include cloves, gingers, and pepper."
I've just released Kala Mandala Playbook! Pay-What-You-Want on Itch. I hope you like it!

Cover page of Kala Mandala Playbook. A TTRPG rulebook for Southeast Asian Fantasy. It has 4 adventurers in a cool pose. A page from the Kala Mandala Playbook, basically describing that adventurers are real nosy busybodies, but there are meddling guilds to join to monetize that personality trait. The illustration is of 4 adventurers escorting a water buffalo.

Willing Subject
A dark room, lit by a single shaft of light from above. A man laying flat on a stone floor, next to him is a sorceress on her knees, dagger up in the air, an instant before she plummets the blade into his chest. The man stares at the viewer with a content expression. Next to the man's hand is a tipped over goblet.

One of this morning's LOTR pencils (one of Saruman's uruks, which'll be the Patreon-exclusive figure for July's batch) and the reference snapshot I used to draw it. After initially drawing the spear I decided to have him holding his sword, instead.

Hello. It's my final week as a full time game designer, and as if to underline why I can't do this anymore, I currently can't afford to cover my bills at the end of the month.

All of my work on itch is on sale. Tell your friends, buy something, thank you very much.

I left my old job a couple of years ago. I’m getting by (just) but crikey, having done my tax return & seen how little I’m earning it was a shocker, it’s getting more & more difficult to earn money from illustration.

I have been out of action too so…I’ll get cracking!

Buy my art (FEBRUARY) 🙏🏻
A black pen in a crosshatch technique and black block printing ink applied with a roller on white paper illustration. The dark silhouetted shape of a woman in a black funeral dress stands at the foot of a bed in an Edwardian style room, she stares at a tired looking man under a heavy quilt. Moonlight shines into the room from behind the woman. Creepy and atmospheric.

Still a steal.

On a whim, I've made my rules light game about grave-robbing PWYW.

Used to be $5. Now it's a steal, which feels thematically appropriate.

drawing of my stupid morrowind guy floating above the ground with a levitate spell like a loser, he holds a silver longsword and a lantern, donning chain armor and a skirt that was expensive.

I got to do the interior art of @directsun.bsky.social's remaster of his old adventure, The Seers Sanctum.
The remaster is part of the upcoming crowdfunding campaign for his new adventure!
Pretty stoked about everything - the layout, the cover, the upcoming adventure (Heard it's real good!).

It's been 5 years since Puzzle Dungeon: The Seers Sanctum was released. It now has tighter text, fresh layout by @slimemindstudio.bsky.social, cover by @jacobfleming.bsky.social, and art and handouts by @munkao.bsky.social.
If you already own Seers, you own the remaster. Cheers!

A new painting (by me) I can share for the game we are working on here at Gardens. I still can't say much, but things are moving along smoothly and I'm excited for you all to see it when it's ready. I really appreciate all the enthusiasm everyone has shared with me about the art we've shown so far.
A group of young adventurers approach a mysterious shrine where a sword emerges from a rock shrouded in mist. A key concept art painting by Andy Porter for Gardens Interactive's new game.

In a lot of ways, I'm really lucky. I work from home. I write and draw books. I still experience a lot of the same normal creative issues. I'm burned out. My current project frustrates me. But a few things in my routine have changed. Me: Hey, mom. Are the cousins okay? How's grandma? And your sisters? Me: Oh, good. Yeah. Okay, that's good. I'll call you later. Watching Bob's Burgers on repeat while I work. My friends check in from time to time. Text: I got rubber-bulleted by ICE just on my way back from work. Ouch. Text: Hey I'm gonna observe tomorrow at the protest. I'll text every hour, and if you don't hear from me, please call [number] and give them my identifying information. I'd probably be at the Whipple. Okay? Text: They knocked on my door, but I'm okay. I demanded a signed judicial warrant, and they couldn’t provide one, so they left. I’m worried all the time. Very little in the news feels encouraging. Headline: Mayor Kaohly Her says she was told to carry a passport amid ICE operations in Minnesota St. Paul Mayor elect Kaobly Her says her office received reports of federal agents going door-to-door asking where the Asian people are. KARE11 January 16, 2026 And it makes me feel utterly untethered from reality when I have to live like this and just get back to work and draw my stupid little cartoons. Nothing else feels real or important right now. But my neighbors are doing such a great job staying engaged and finding needs to meet. Text: I'm running to Costco and picking up some canned goods to run to the food shelf. Let me know if you want to donate anything. Text: I'll throw in for some canned goods! Text: Me too! Text from me: What's your Venmo? I can contribute.

As one might suspect from Mike's games, he's got a keen eye when it comes to game design, narrative structure, and more.

If you need a second pair of eyes on a project, you can get some quality feedback with this coaching offering. I did!

I’m piloting a design coaching service: writing, layout, or whatever else you could use help on with your ttrpg project.

First session with @signalstation.bsky.social was a dive into syncing mystery components for his The Between-inspired carnival game Step Right Up.
