Oh how I envy the UK folks having good shops over there! 😄 Central EU isn't great with it, but maybe in the future there will be some retail shops keeping a copy or two. Recently shipping became quite the problem anyway.

Also, I will be running my second session of Daggerheart. I was reading the core on the train ride, and started to formulate things in my head for the one-shot. Guess who watched recently also the Odyssey and installed Hades 2...

I am quite stoked to be back in Budapest for a short time — visiting fam and friends, and then going to the annual cyberpunk LARP will be goddamn refreshing after I wasn't able to attend while I was over the emerald isle.

I didn't back at the time, but it seemed to be really good. It certainly is unusual to see a hardback Mothership product. But I can totally see them in the future doing a big leather covered tome for Fatherfog, collecting all sorts of dark fairy tale adventures.

We had an absolute blast at Vindiecon 2026, and were very happy to talk to the kind folks who looked at our humble table and asked us about our first zines.

'tis time. I am happy to announce that I am now working at Tin Feather Press (@tinfeatherpress.bsky.social) for a month now. Very excited to see where this path leads, and looking forward to make more TTRPGs!

After months of looking for a job in Austria/Vienna, I decided to opt for freelancing. I still need to sort out the tax and insurrance stuff, but I am looking out for opportunities. 👀 If you know someone who needs an able producer/designer/illustrator for the next TTRPG project, send them my way!

I mean, if one can sell zines on markets... But ofc it depends on the usb drive costs, how large you need 'em to be, and if you could buy them in bulk. If anything it would reinforce the idea, that the player owns a physical copy. Even if they'd need to find a website for patches, it could be neat

In an age, where you ask a question on the internet and the first answer in your search engine is engineered by the company's AI, you might wonder how the total control of the answer they could have... Looking for alternatives, and to just figure out how I can escape this cyberpunk dystopia.

I made ten empty zine folds for *reasons*. Now I just need to get the actual reasons on paper. Scan them, and put then on my itch page.

I will continue to dump some ideas into the aether: how about going back to yesterday's web? I see so many videos nowadays doing your own personal website and getting off of social media for the sake of mental health and happiness.

Daydreaming about some solo-dev stuff on the side, while looking for a job: I love the nostalgic vibe of Morrowind. What if...? Then again, I don't even have hardware to start developing stuff.

*Looking around for jobs in Vienna.* *Industry is looking mostly for senior people or people with very technical skills.* *Barely any options for producers.* *shrug* I guess 'tis time for some bartender job, innit?

Four Pillars Gaming published hundred of AI-generated profiles over the past four months and when people asked to be taken down, they doubled down, defended their process, and refused. The ramifications of hallucinatory LLM "histories" threaten to erode truth and destroy the historical record.

In his first speech as Hungary's prime minister, Péter Magyar called on Hungarian President Tamás Sulyok to resign or be removed: "It's time to leave, Mr. President — while you still can." Sulyok, a Fidesz-backed Orbán ally, sat awkwardly watching in the Hungarian parliament.

While nobody can do too much against it, I hoped for a smoother start of our moving to Austria. Hopefully, soon I can just meet my family and friends again. Thank you for reading my venting, hope you had a better May Day. May the 4th be with you.

So with a croissant and a caeser wrap in me for the whole day and a coffee that I drank way too late I frantically started to clean and pack. I think I can safely say, no matter ehat happens, life brings around some tough times on a personal level sometimes.

By then, not only her left ear was having trouble but her right one too. Afterwards she received her medication we rode home and I tucked her in bed to rest for the remaining day. As one does. Meanwhile, this is basically our last night at the house we rent in Ireland, so there is much to do.

Zsombor Sváb @mythr1der.itch.io · 04/05/2026
The emergency department of the hospital wasn't as packed, but because an ear infection isn't as urgent as a head injury, we waited about 4 hours until she got her blood test and got called in to be given the antibiotics she needs.

Zsombor Sváb @mythr1der.itch.io · 04/05/2026
Nothing was open (May Day, being a bank holiday in Ireland) and supermarkets have only painkillers. I picked up some but we decided to call the neighbour who has a car and was extremely gracious of him to drive us to the hospital.

#vent sorry for a personal posting but damn... After my partner couldn't sleep at night from the suddenly developing ear infection, I worried. I should've called a taxi, and get her to the emergency dept. at the hospital. Today I scoured the town for a pharmacy in hopes to get something for her.

While it was rather short, the wrap up of Winter's Daughter was a lot of fun. #Dolmenwood has been a breeze to run really, and for newcomers to the hobby, the whimsical allure of the setting is perfect to get immersed fairly quickly and engage with the game.

So I can make news of this: I had a blast in Ireland, but I'm moving back to Austria, also leaving behind C7. I immensely enjoyed the job, but I'm ready to take on new adventures! Give me a shout if you know anyone who needs a game producer, it would be greatly appreciated!

Ran my first session of #Dolmenwood for a group of new players, and it was a blast! Winter's Daughter is a neat little intro adventure to get new people used to adventure roleplay. Going for something different than the usual 5e people demand was also really refreshing.

I remember the beauty of being alive as a teenager, and it made me very happy to see my former class. Life was different, as I enjoyed each moment of freedom, experiencing and making memories of my own, with friends. It way great.

I am not sure if I did make the right ones, but I'm confident I took a path that, that led me to something what I don't regret. I love doing what I do, and I love the people I've met and became friends with.

After attending the high school class reunion, I gotta say, it's good to see how different life can turn out. We all started out as wannabe artists, and the wide variety of different life paths just show me how each little choice in life is precious and important.

I am absolutely amazed sometimes by the tiniest indie ttrpgs, some of the stuff is such a noche thing, but it makes perfect sense to have the game. At least to me. I don't know how other designers feel about those little gems. Unpolished, micro-games that are made with a wild heart. I love 'em!

I noticed that after some years of heavy coffee drinking, it makes my heart race in moments of high stress. As a word of advice, don't overdrink, my friends. I panic so hard, I am now in the gym, trying to get it out of my system through sweat. :')
