We have enough knights bitch where are all the combat archer fetishists
Empakaai is very fun to play :]
Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.
You are probably my favourite designers in the business. Treading ground rarely covered in ttrpgs with Silk and Dagger, and covering classic forms of ttrpgs in incredibly novel (and very good!) ways with Eureka and Death Bed. There's nobody whose work I am as excited for as you.
:)
Getting this message the other day really made my day, thank you so so so much. Stuff like this really keeps me going. (That and the money. Really can’t overstate the importance of money for staying in business and continuing to make this stuff.)

You sicken me.
when im playing a game alone and theres danger i am quiet and stoic, by necessity. when im playing with friends and theres danger i start screaming and sqwuaking like a chimp to communicate over long distance that there is danger and i am distressed. This is because humans are social animals who evolved to live in groups and signal to eachother when herobrine is there
oh hey my lovely- IS THAT ALUCARD THE MIGHTY???
pencilless. lack of pencil. zero pencil in sight.

Hey how’s it going? I like your tower, it’s very damp. The locusts are coming. It’s not my fault. Cool hat btw.
hey thanks, i really apprecia—wait what
I have talked about it before, but independant artists, and by extension independant TTRPG designers like myself and my team, live and die by their social media presence. We can't afford a lot of advertising, if any, and so we rely not only on word-of-mouth advertisement, but also just the good will of our audience. Like another designer @cavegirlpoems put it, we're basically busking, putting our art out for everyone and hoping for voluntary donations, donations which I writing this am reliant on as a disabled designer who can't work a normal job.
If you can't pay, you can still have it for free, and something that can be just as helpful is reblogging the posts of artists like myself. I'll demonstrate with a screenshot from our itch.io page for the open beta for Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy.
(and on these days, it was only about 6 or 7 people who did the reblogging.)
As you can see, reblogs mean more people see our game, which means more downloads (and sometimes even payments), downloads mean more people play our game and more people see our game in the itch.io algorithm, which means more views, which means more downloads, which means more and so on and so on. But, it all starts with you reblogging our posts, and without that, we're stagnate. It doesn't matter if you have 1,000 followers or 10, your reblog means that our posts reach corners of tumblr that wouldn't have seen it otherwise.
Myself and others are reliant on a 2-second reblog to be able to support ourselves as artists, you and your 10 followers are where it starts.
