Thanks! I'm going to be tweaking everything up until the very last moment, so I appreciate the feedback.

Downrooted, my Cairn 2e forest depthcrawl adventure, has a new cover! I am extremely happy with how this book is coming along. What started as a flawed and overly ambitious game jam submission 3 years ago is turning into an 80+ page book I'll eventually get to hold in my hands.

A painting of a dense forest. The negative space between the trees and branches form the shape of a screaming face or skull. The text reads, "Downrooted. A Forest Depthcrawl Adventure. By Jason Christopher Burrows. Cairn Compatible.

Does anyone know how to properly scan or photograph a painting?

Some creatures I did for Downrooted in watercolour.

Small, gangly simian-like creature with leathery skin and a green face.

A creature with the haunches of a stag, the neck of a lion, and the head of a badger.

A large yellow and orange mass of creeping gelatinous tendrils.

I really enjoyed the short demo. I've slowly discovered that I really like the genre of pilot-a-vehicle-with-ropey-controls-to-do-survival-or-puzzle-things-at-different-locations. Such as Pacific Drive and Outer Wilds.

Jason Christopher Burrows @eucatastrophic.itch.io · 24/09/2026

This is a really neat idea and one I think could be modified for TTRPG combat as well. I generally don't like to get as fiddly with combat in my group games, but I can see this adding interesting nuance to a solo system. youtube.com/shorts/P9OLH...

If you just want to some progress images, here you go. These show off the new layout, forest section page borders, and creature art. Red areas are placeholder for future artwork.

We need a new word for the level of sublime vindication you feel when your skepticism or rejection of the latest tech bro fad/scam is proven right. That feeling for AI is going to be incredible. More so than crypto or NFTs.

I got a chance to sit on the coast and paint for 2 hours. I didn't realise how much I missed doing that. Modern life really takes a lot from you.

Rattlesnakes were a big one, despite living in a country that didn't have them and instead had far more dangerous snakes.

Oh, I just mean the mismatch of assets. The art is inconsistent. You have sharp pixel ground textures with blured pixel rocks and higher res clothing, etc.

It's a lot of fun! Really scratches that Scrolls-itch. Pogo spear jumping around the island is the best way to travel. I do wish they would develop a unified artstyle. The visuals give me whiplash.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

Well dang, should’ve just memed it in the first place

An illustration by Gustave Dore for Dante’s Divine Comedy that shows two silhouetted figures standing on a tall summit gazing up at a great celestial conflagration of souls in heaven. Text reads “We already had free art for people who are broke or bad at designing things. It’s called the PUBLIC DOMAIN”

It's no longer a game. It's a platform. And it's been a platform for a long time if you consider all the big 3rd party kickstarter reskins.

Something about "you are the product" (bacon) Or maybe the investors are the bacon #genAI

Screenshot from mileswildermusic on Threads:
"“Slop” is so visceral to me because I grew up feeding literal slop to pigs. Buckets and buckets of table scraps, garden trash, cheap grain, etc. soaked in water and poured into a trough. Pigs LOVE slop. We’d pour it out and they’d jostle each other and scarf it down in big reckless mouthfuls with happy, satisfied grunts. Pigs are smart animals, but not enough to understand the reason for the slop buffet. They didn’t know about bacon. I see people satisfied using Gen AI. Do they know about bacon? "

You got to admit, DnD going full Magic the Gathering is a smart business move. It's 100% tacky and lame, but people WILL eat it up, and DnD will remain the top dog of the industry for the next decade, at least.

I've been molding over this thought, but I see a lot of devs, writers, and movie people say that AI gives them ideas they never would have thought of. My reply is that it's GOOD that our thoughts are limited because they are OUR thoughts. Don't let your ideas be overwritten. Use your voice.

Yeah, I'm not surprised. He was constantly trying to replace the work of artists with whatever the newest tech was and seemed to hate being limited by the tech of the day. But you know what they say about limitations.
