When I talk about game writing, I often reference "scenario writing." But what's scenario writing? Why does this term appear so much in Japanese game credits? And why do I think this is relevant to TTRPGs? Let's take a look at what this term has meant historically and how it's evolved over time.

hey all, I'd like to make one more push for donations here. I'm hoping to raise funds to begin laser facial hair removal treatment, and my goal is $600. it might not sound like a big deal, but it would give me enormous peace of mind in my upcoming local job search, especially with how everything is.

one thing you learn from making a lot of things is that the nitty gritty details, the millions of tiny invisible decisions, ARE the art. The "higher level ideas" are not nearly as important or interesting

I enjoyed the writeup! trying this game also transported me back to those 2000s freeware days. I adore its honesty and simplicity, it feels much like DQ1 in that I could just sit there with it and throw myself at it all day.
