Wizard on a windy day. #art
Leaves blow past a wizard with a staff. The wind catches his beard, as well. The sky is the colors of autumn. Painted with watercolors.

I am a secret third thing... I barely remember the rules. I'm confusing it with about 17 other games. I spent my prep telling myself I should probably start doing my prep. I'm holding the story together in my head by my fingernails. We're just jamming

The Pitch: - Players are called Jokers & have joker card character sheets. - Players collect cards by overcoming challenges -Cards have abilities you can use by tapping them (ala MtG) -To deal damage, you make poker hands (discarding them after use) -run out of cards, you die

tiktok is currently arguing over how much money and fame you have to get as a ttrpg designer before you can accurately call yourself a professional Every single person who has really strong opinions on the criteria has never made a single thing themselves much less been paid for it

In the new version of Affinity. Haven't played with it yet … Custom bullet glyphs are tricky, and this makes them so much easier to implement.
Affinity update: Image files can now be used in place of a standard bullet glyph
