But I haven't written today's newsletter issue yet (T-02:50), my brain is cooked, & I'm need to do my walkies.
By hook or by crook I am to do both while it's still officially Monday!

But I haven't written today's newsletter issue yet (T-02:50), my brain is cooked, & I'm need to do my walkies.
By hook or by crook I am to do both while it's still officially Monday!
Now I've got detailed notes for this episode & I've read what I've written, & I don't like how personal it is but by hook or by crook I'm going to record this episode and publish it while it's still Wednesday.
I hate deadlines. The ones I set for myself are THEE worst. Ugh.
Let's play Porchirren: Crucible of Cards Core Loop!
I've done images/cards for you to follow.
This is all a big, wild swing. I've never attempted to make the core loop playable like this before.
This is an Infiltration, not a combat.
Good Luck, Have Fun! 😅
Just published the quick start for Porchirren: Crucible of Cards over on Itch.
I feel sooo good about how the page looks wunna! 🕺
Proper chuffed AND real-real fussy 😅
Don't take my word for it. Hit the clicky-linky thing & see ⬇️
Red cards check against your ceiling, the harder target number, and black cards check against your floor, the easier one, so the same card can mean a tough climb or a comfortable clear depending only on its colour.
I was staring at the graphic I did (all by myself like a real boy) & the idea for a trailer popped into my head fully formed.
I'm rather chuffed by how it came out.

I've been working on this & talking about this for what feels like so long & now it's really-real! 🥳
I'm proud to present to you #ttrpgsky the quick start for my latest solo TTRPG, think XCOM meets Solitaire!
It's tactical, fast-paced, & uses playing cards ✏️📄🚫🎲
#Porchirren #Card-driven
Spend so long thinking about & planning this, three cheers for getting the first audio-first episode (live playing the quick start) done! 🎧
Not just done, but published when I said I would [today!] 🥳
And I'm happy with how it turned out🕺
Huzzah! I just finished layout the Porchirren: Crucible of Cards Quick Start. 🕺
I had a simple idea & was able to execute it.
I decided to go with landscape to avoid the tables feeling squeezed up.
Next step is a final read-through before starting on the store listings.
It hasn't escaped me that designing a solo-first game where low cognitive load is a core design philosophy is pretty much NOT a low cognitive load experience much of the time 🥲🫠
I'm very happy to have got past this instance of productive procrastination.
My reward is that the domain name is now a live website!
