Zines are fine. I buy them. I sell them. I collect them. "Better" is a completely subjective term. I've spent countless hours flipping through zines at the table and I prefer stitchbound books instead. That's the lay of my value system when it comes to printed matter. Also subjective.

Thank you for this. I thought it was just me. Why did I think it was just me? Like I was typing wrong or something.

They used to be strong to the point of being off-putting. But now they're super lame. Like firecrackers these days.

I'm running a Kickstarter that started off as 16th century Korean and Japanese naval vessels to Pirate Borg, but has blossomed into a unique little skirmish game (with ship conversion for PB) 👉🏻 A5 zine and/or digital 👉🏻 9 ships from Korea and Japan circa 1599 👉🏻 Extensive print-and-play/VTT assets

it's crazy to have been working on this game for 4 years and to finally have mockups of it

I only gauge RPGs now by how much they would shock an '80s Christian mom who walked into the room and discovered her children and some neighborhood kids playing. 1-Approval to 10-Heart Attack. This game is shaping up to be a solid 8!

I Googled the explanation but I need you to stay in the dark on this, for my continued entertainment.

Dave Thaumavore @thaumavore.blue · 03/06/2026

Start work on a passion project and it will feel like you're not even working. Then when you sputter out on that one, getting back to work on the main project will feel like taking a break!

I've been e-stalking you for years and this is only first time I've seen THIS guy. Also, KPot rules. There's one near where I live.

I thought of Break!! when I saw that animated trailer. Somewhere in this world there's a studio who would greenlight your series. In Japan probably.

These + these all went to my patrons for use in their projects. If you're looking for art in a project, please consider a "membership." As of now, my patreon income is about $200 short each month of our daycare costs. Commissions are spotty to come by. verging into tough times here.

Is it too late? If I backed at the highest tier, would you get to 1000%? DM me.

I just watched a trailer and the first words that came to mind were "歯がいっぱいある化け物" (lots-of-teeth monster)!

This is a very attractive physical product. I look forward to playing it at some point!

My biggest issue is how poorly written it is. Very implausible villains. Completely recycled plots from other stories. No discernible protagonists. Just garbage.

My guess is licensing. In other IP licenses, VTTs are considered "video games" and it's possible that FL's license doesn't include "video games."

@thaumavore.blue just dropped an excellent breakdown of the BUREAU of CHRONOLOGICAL AFFAIRS! I gotta say his wishlist of features for the game makes a lot of sense to me - and get my brainbox working.
