Howdy, BlueSky!

I'm Dan and I make TRPGs. I'm working on a space adventure RPG called "Drier Deserts, Hotter Suns" among other games

I post about designing, running, and playing Sci-Fi RPGs a lot, so if that's your jam, give me follow!

✌️ peace!
Reposting so I can come back to this post.

Flames engulf the candy apple red Veygama ekamaran as it screams through the atmosphere. In seconds, the small cruiser punches a hole through the clouds revealing a frozen wasteland of endless ice. Call it what you want: Ân, Soliby, Terrewan, Colonial Prime.

Ran another Cy_Borg adventure in last night's Cyberpunk RED game. I've decided this campaign will go on so long as I have another Cy_Borg dungeon to run

Short thread explaining how I do my layout work for games. I basically break it down into four distinct steps.
Step 1: Create Templates (25%)
Step 2: Bulk Layout (50%)
Step 3: Layout Refinement (20%)
Step 4: Proofing (5%)

Let's explain what these steps consist of.

Thinking the visual style for DD/HS is going to be "The 90's Star Wars bounty-hunter OVA that we never got"
August 12, 2025 at 5:56 PM
Have gotten some great feedback on DD/HS from beta readers so far! If you are interested in participating, I still have a few slots left open 🥳
