We're doing a stream on our Discord server in about 4 hours! We'll be making a game using our On Poetic Tides SRD on screen to show how easy it is to use an SRD to make a TTRPG 🥳 If you've never made a TTRPG or want to see how we make stuff, it'll be perfect for you! 🧡 discord.gg/sDZ5BwwDVy?e...
The first full draft of Oceans and Spirals is done! I'm so proud 🧡 we playtested a partial version before and it went super well, so I'm hyped for a full playtest in a few days I also made the covers of the booklet look like a softcover fiction novel! 🥳
I'm working on Oceans and Spirals, my Alan Wake fangame solo TTRPG, so excited and proud that I'm getting manic lol I even got a poem in here from "T Zane" 🧡 Much love to @remedygames.com for their masterpieces 🥰
This screen always makes me so happy 🧡 I've been a lot kinder to myself and not scheduled like 20 to-dos every day 😅 Done for the day! 🚀 #TodoistZero
The Whimsical Wizard is FINALLY DONE! It's a solo doodling/journaling game meant to introduce people to TTRPGs, and we had a blast playing it ourselves as experienced gamers, too. My end-game sheet is below 😅🤣 beth-and-angel-make-games.itch.io/the-whimsica...
I am SO FREAKING PROUD of the playtest of Oceans and Spirals I had with @unbirthdayangel.bsky.social. the "blackout poetry" editing worked out far better than I could've hoped! There's still a lot of work to do but I'm really excited to work on it now
This adorable lil jerk needs to learn to use their words 😅

Under 17 minutes per mile for my walk today! And it was a 2.78 mile walk, too!!! Not bad for my fifth walk in like a month 🥳 and all 5 in the span of 48 hours, too! I'm coming for you, 16.5 minutes!
I humbly accept walking at a 17.5 minute/mile pace when the ground was SO awful outside. I nearly fell several times, kept having to walk through grass, etc
Today is the first day it's been in the 50s in 2025 so far I think. While it's a celebration for me, it's the end of the story for this snowfolk... Unless we keep them alive here! What do you think their hobbies were? What was their best memory? What was their last moment like?
I am SO HYPED that Lost Records by @dontnod.bsky.social is in the PlayStation Plus library thingy! We got a year subscription today and this alone covers almost half the cost. Don't Nod is so amazing and I am so excited to dive into this latest story 🧡
