Hearing the call of the halloween tunes, I freshly finished a one page ttrpg you can find in the bundle. In Between Wise Wisdom you will reflect about books (and maybe life) in a supposed abandoned library. You can play with a friend or by yourself easily. If it interests you, please check it out!

It wouldn't be a Sprinting Owl game without me trying something mechanically, so in this rpg about stopping a royal wedding to a monster I also have the following: -asymmetrical social combat -you can keep playing after you're dead -you can lie about your dice www.kickstarter.com/projects/rod...

I'm not going to jump up and down on the person being wrong, but AI prompting isn't like art. It's like commissioning art. And the guy you're commissioning from eats coal, takes pictures of you when you're not looking, and got his career start by stealing everyone else's work.

Not all the way through the new Silent Hill, but it's definitely weird in how it talks about what it wants to talk about. Like, it's very clearly about that thing we don't wanna think about from six years back. But it shies off in a *very* specific way.

Thinking about how when you get good at a physical art (martial arts, dance) you can make it look serious, and then when you get really good at it you can make it look playful. Thinking about this re: animation and storytelling in the new Ghost In The Shell, and also Night Of The Zoopocalypse.
