I'm making a game. It's not named right now. But it involves surfing on clouds. Marshmelloy clouds.

A good blank wall staring with some thumbs twiddling is also solid!

Not the top Steam review of Dressmaker making me cry this morning!

US Justice Dept sues California to block votes from alleged noncitizens - www.reuters.com/world/doj-su... They waited last minute when they could have raised the issue months ago. The ballots will also be verified once cast and received. So it's not like there is a risk in sending the ballots

Keep up to date on the Rockstar Union Busting trial. www.thegamer.com/inside-rocks...

These games can be super fun. If you haven't tried a text-based role-playing game on discord before, it's worth a shot!

Don't be fooled by the "slow down" rhetoric from LLM companies. Slow or fast doesn't matter. Safe matters. And safe is how you use it. I don't care how fast they develop these technologies. What I care is that they aren't used by the US government to spy domestically on its citizens. Which it does.

I cannot emphasize enough how much I dig this video essay, and learning about the authors views. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujzP...

Also fellow Wardogs players. You don't need to build 4 tall walls. Just build tank traps around your fob so enemies can't drive up too the wall and jump over it from on top.

Dear fellow Wardogs players. Please make smaller fobs. Much smaller. Every match the fob is an enormous and unwieldy beast that leaks enemies like a siv. Just make a small fob with a few recon towers, a bunker, and a drill pump. Or mortars.

Wardogs is neat, and I like what they are doing. It would improve substantially if they modified the smaller hot zone to allow a more strategic approach.

Why the onion gotta be so brutally on point?

I surveyed 200 players and learned that most OSR games fall into two tiers of lethality - Meatgrinder and Picaresque. Table culture determines lethality more than system or campaign length. valerialoves.com/how-deadly-i...

Finally, got a nice, working ship map editor that supports multiple decks, etc. Love it. If you wanna use it, just get access to loreframe alpha. loreframe.app?utm_source=b...

If they legitimately ran out of money, this could be a way to potentially keep these folks employed. But its hard to have any faith in game companies these days given that firing staff after a successful game release has become standard practice.

They disinvented the VCR. You might think that the reason we don't have VCRs anymore is because VCRs were supplanted by DVDs, PVRs and streaming, but that's not the case. They had it in for the VCR from the very start, and they never stopped trying to kill it. Eventually, they succeeded. 1/

Making it so that maps can have multiple decks built in. Looks a bit jank right now, but its getting there. loreframe.app

Working on a location map editor for loreframe.app . Let's players throw together maps with legends easily for running their game.

It begins.

Turns out that adding style presets is kind of a mess when... my CSS is a mess. HOW COULD I HAVE KNOWN!? Nobody warned me. Madness. Well, now Loreframe has a few style presets, but I'm holding off on more until I really clean up the CSS. For my sanity. My favorite preset is Vile Banana.

Reading LLM output is exhausting. Even if it's short (never) your reading output it gives you, your reading documentation created by it, your coworkers are spending their last moments on this earth before you put them out of their misery sending you a LLM generated response to your question. Tiring.

In the process of developing Loreframe, I did a few tests with different map making technology and features. They are pretty decent on their own, so I decided to host them so folks can use them for free. Here is Orbital Forge! orbitalforge.loreframe.app?utm_source=b...

Well, turns out my product email list signup was down for a few days because I disabled a page in the newsletter software settings which... apparently also disables signups entirely. That's bogus. Bad documentation! Anyway, back up now.

While I've had icons for the maps in loreframe.app for a while, they were not exactly the style I was looking for. I really wanted to stick to SVG icons and really make it look like a retro map with symbols and a legend. So I came up with a framework and then threw together a sample. Check it out!

For GM's, a world-building app needs to not only make it easy and fun to create awesome worlds, but also to prep for running sessions with their friends. I just added tool to Loreframe that lets gm's print out session prep! loreframe.app?utm_source=b...

I'm not saying your gm world-building tools needs to track planetary orbital positions over time throughout the campaign but.... it does in loreframe.app

Cold. Stone cold

Adding some map viewing and zoom ability to the terminal in my ttrpg world-building app loreframe.app . Gotta add some clunky "Enhance" sfx.

Hot damn! The alpha of my world-building and world-exploration tool loreframe.app is readddddy! Go sign up and you'll get a key. I'll even give you a cookie. A virtual cookie. So you can login.

If you are looking for a Lead/Principal Engineer to get your dream project created and released, get in touch. I can help you make that happen. gorillatactics.com

Gave the timeline editor a glowup. GM's running TTRPG games will be able to make player facing and GM Only events, to remind them of what's happening in the game world (or session) as time progresses! Sign up for alpha at loreframe.app

My TTRPG world building app loreframe.app is almost ready for alpha. If you want sometime tailor made for worldbuilding sci-fi campaigns, and also has a really cool terminal app that players can explore and learn about your world with, goooooo sign up.

Vamos Argentina!

This Argentina game could only be more intense if they were cars.

Vamos Argentina!

Look, I'm not saying your sci-fi game needs a hidden volcano lair map. Buttttt........ loreframe.app Sign up for the alpha and you too can make rad maps in my world-building app.

More work on the topographic map generator. Now we have hero landmarks (mountains, craters, etc.), meta features (mountain ranges, etc.), the ability to control min/max elevation, ocean levels, etc. You'll be able to get maps like this in my world-building tool loreframe.app

Working on the generated contour maps for my world-building tool loreframe.app . Alpha access is opening up soon, go check it out.

Another galaxy brain decision from our illustrious industry leaders.

Nice! I got the invite system of loreframe.app working. After some cleanup of the with flow it should be good for testing!

When players are exploring your world lore, why should they get access to it all at once? Give them the access their characters would have to a computer system. But show them the redaction so they know they are missing something, and want to hunt. loreframe.app

I'm making a tool that make world-building for sci-fi ttrpg's a breeze, and has a player facing terminal for players to explore that world. Check it out! loreframe.app

I am making a pretty awesome lore/world building app that players can interact with as a old cassette-punk terminal with various with levels and redacted info. Check it out. loreframe.app

Claude Code Desktop's latest update pins your last message (no matter how long) to the top of the viewport. How did the person implementing this not immediately get punched by the nearest UI/UX designer, or anyone who had even tried it once?
