After 125 sessions and countless hours at the table, @icel.me's Thorns of Winter campaign has reached its stunning conclusion.

Three unlikely heroes (and others who parted ways). An ancient cosmic horror. A world forever changed.

1/ After 125 sessions, our #DungeonWorld campaign has reached its epic conclusion. Kal, a fire mage. Skadi, a warrior wielding five fragments of a deliberately shattered ice sword. Grim, an orc ranger-priest. Together, they stood against an ancient evil threatening to consume reality itself.

Somehow, I set the totally unrealistic and pointless goal for myself to get 1,000 stars on each of the Starter Kit repositories. City Builder is super close now with 974 stars, Basic Scene the furthest away with 222 stars (I got ideas to bump it 👀)

We made a new GDScript Formatter for Godot 4, written in Rust: www.gdquest.com/library/gdsc...

It runs fast enough to use on every save on a laptop.

Please give it a try, and let us know if you encounter any issue!

Learning a new engine is hard, but I love that learning to do _anything_ basic in #GodotEngine is so straightforward and intuitive - if still a little buggy XD

But... what could I possibly be working on?

First draft of my new 2-page "I need a dungeon crawler for a single session, something I can play with newbies" game. @avivor.com , @evyatron.bsky.social , I imagine this even becoming the character sheet itself, in the future.
GM gets their own 1 page, and also a 1-page dungeon.
The 2-page rules for Adventurers In A Dungeon (WIP)

I finished the three-week onboarding and training for my new job. A lot of the pressure has gone down. Which means that my mind is free to think about the important stuff: Writing the manuscript for #GodfleshRPG full release.

#TTRPGs and story game crowd:
I'm looking for world-building games to help me flesh out the setting for Godflesh.

The entire setting started from a Microscope game, and now I want to focus on more specific areas during the time period the game takes place.

6. Soon, Godflesh will develop its visual skin and sinew, connecting the game experience to the atmosphere and design elements that make it unique. Can't wait to show you what we're cooking up!

5. We kicked off at the start of the month and have already completed our first week of collaboration. There are sketches and concepts brewing, but it's still early days for sharing. Expect some reveals towards month's end! 👀

4. We're not just commissioning specific artwork. Instead, we're embarking on a months-long visual development journey together. Think concept art, world-building exploration, and figuring out what truly fits the Godflesh aesthetic (and what doesn't).

3. Big news: we've got an artist on board! Meet @ronamis.bsky.social, whom we connected with at @ukge.bsky.social. He's previously collaborated with @nnesk.bsky.social and brings an incredible range – illustration, game design, 3D modelling, the works. Proper multi-talented creative! 🎨

2. Once we wrap up this Vanor campaign, my group is diving straight into Godflesh playtesting. RIP Vanor, hello Godflesh! 👋 This means I'll have another dedicated playtesting group putting the game through its paces.

1. Time for a long-overdue #GodfleshRPG update! While there haven't been major mechanical changes recently, development is very much alive. My current Vanor campaign is heading into its epic finale – the ultimate battle against the ultimate villains! ^Icel

Played “Trouble on the Tempus”, from Minor Disaster Games, out next April, and it’s lovely!
Play the crew of a ship in an emergency, with a twist - there’s a time drive that lets you reset the board so you know what’s coming (mostly) and plan ahead - if you can get back to the bridge in time.
Board game on a table. The board shows a ship with various sections - systems and corridors. Some rooms have damage tokens on them, z a shield tracker on the side, and players on the board. One of the players has been ejected into space.

Trying out Marvel Rivals – really nice on PlayStation and doesn't require much precision. I love getting into games I haven't tried, and I already have loads of Twitch drops. Playing support and keeping my team alive! 🎮 #MarvelRivals

Yesterday tried playing Black Widow in Marvel Rivals – she's basically just a sniper character, doesn't do anything else. Obviously didn't go well for me. Then the enemy Black Widow player starts chatting things like "go back to playing something more your level" 😅 #MarvelRivals
