Coming along on the Templates update for Orros 1.2. Not quite sure if I'll have it finished by the 2nd of November, but if not then, it won't be much longer. The Templates chapter is complicated rulewise, but provides GMs a lot more tools. #indiegame #ttrpg #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #wip

It has not felt like 5 days since my latest update. XD Sorry about that. I'll try to keep on that a little more. Devlog for week 91 is now up on Steam. Info about the upcoming update for the Orros Superhero #ttrpg. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... #indiegame #blog #gamedev #wip

I showed off what "real AI art" looks like not long ago. This image is what happens when you give Gemini a large amount of resources, but no model to generate an image with. It's entirely in vector graphics. Basically, it is an AI "drawing manually"... the hard way. #art #AI #wipwednesday #wip

#devlog for week 90 is now up on steam. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... Orros 1.2 update info will come text week, for those of you waiting for that. I've also been working on a sci-fi short story. #indiegame #gamedev #wip #blog

Working on a nice little CYOA image set project. ^--^; Have no idea when it will be finished, all I know is that it'll be fun. Look forward to that. #indiegame #wipwednesday #gamedev #wip

#devlog week 89 is now up on the Steam page. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... Covering my boardgame Belit, and what "real" AI art looks like. Example attached. #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #wip #blog

If anyone wants to see my #aniimo stats. aniidex.com/player/30200...

So sorry, been playing all of the new releases. AHHH! That and catching up on Orros 1.2. Anyhow, I wanted to ask a question. Does anyone play solo TTRPGs? Considering developing one (not right this moment). What do you guys value in a good solo TTRPG? #indiegame #gamedev #wip #poll

#devlog 88 is now up on steam. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... I'm still playing games (Aniimo and Valheim), so there is some side project stuff in there, because I know you like seeing my massive side project archive. #indiegame #gamedev #wipwednesday #blog

I just like #Aniimo okay, I'm sorry. I'll get to updates about dev stuff later. XD #indiegame #indiedev #wip #helpmeplox

The 87th week #devlog is now up on Steam. I've been playing games (Valheim, Aniimo, and a couple games under NDA). So, I haven't been working on projects. Instead, some side project screenshots on in there for your entertainment. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... #blog #dev #indegame #wip

Sorry for the lack of an update. Have been playing a lot of Valheim 1.0 with friends. ^--^;

Just finished up Orbweaver, my one-page TTRPG entry for Game Jam 3000. The theme was "unusual resolution mechanics". #indiegame #wipwednesday #ttrpg #gamedev #gameart

Devlog 86 is now up on Steam. Feels good to have the schedule back on track. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... Working on this tileset for a day or two, finishing up the game jam, then moving on to Orros 1.2. #indiegame #indiedev #blog #wipwednesday #wip #gamedev

Sorry for the lack of an update, been working on a game jam for the Rules As Written TTRPG community, as well as preparing content for Orros 1.2 My game for the jam, whose theme is unconventional resolution mechanics, is Orbweaver, a TTRPG played with marbles. #wip #ttrpg #indiegame #indiedev

Orros has been updated to version 1.1. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5... Added Story and Index chapters. Expanded Utilization and Mitigation roll explanations in the Appendix. #indiegame #gamedev #ttrpg #writing #wipwednesday

The 85th week devlog is now up on steam. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... #indiegame #indiedev #blog #wip #dev

Working on new interstitials for the Story chapter of Orros 1.1, still trying to have it ready sometime tomorrow. Not too much more to get done. #indiegame #ttrpg #gamedev #gameart #rpg #dev

Story chapter writing for Orros 1.1 is complete. The update isn't finished as I need to add content requested for the Appendix to better explain how combat rolls are made. Total book size id 200+ pages now. Should be done by the 1st Sep, and updated. #indiegame #gamedev #ttrpg #rpg #wip

Just got finished with the Q&A from Randomworlds TTRPG community. gmshoe.wordpress.com/2026/08/25/q... Feel free to join the community on discord, www.tinyurl.com/randomworlds... and support them at their ko-fi. ko-fi.com/gmshoe #indiegame #gamedev #wipwednesday #TTRPG #RPG

Still working on that massive Medium article I mentioned before. It's turned into a lot more writing that I would have thought, but I'm passionate about the subject so what can you do. It'll be a fun read, there'll be a bunch of images in there. #indiegame #indiedev #wip #screenshotsaturday

Been a couple days, but I've been playing Fatal Bullet. XD Writing a rather large article for Medium, which I hope to have out in a couple days. It's gonna be MMO and live service game design related, something I've been meaning to write for a while. It'll be great, real game's journalism.

83rd weekly #devlog is now up. Did this recreation of the card back for Phantasy Star Online Ep.3 Card Revolution. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... #indiedev #gamedev #gameart #blog

Chapter 25 of Keygemin: Barter is now up on #royalroad www.royalroad.com/fiction/9307... #fantasy #writing #booksky #wipwednesday

The 82nd week #devlog is now up. Working on Orros 1.1 store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... #indiegame #indiedev #dev #blog #ttrpg #rpg

I'm have decided to remove Orros from sale on @itch.io. Significant payment delays are being reported by many creators. It is causing worries that itch might not be financially solvent. I have gifted purchasers a copy on @drivethrurpg.com, so that can retain free updates. #indiegame #indiedev

Wrote a Medium article about the development of Orros. medium.com/@SoaringMoon... #indiegame #ttrpg #rpg #gamedev #blog

Fully implemented the Index, turned out to be a little more difficult than just adding the labels, but it's working. #ttrpg #indiegame #gamedev #wip #screenshotsaturday

Working on the 1.1 update for Orros. Seems like adding an Index is easier than I thought it was going to be. So, I'll do my best to implement it with the update. #indiegame #ttrpg #gamedev #rpg #screenshotsaturday

The 81st week #devlog is now up, pretty much just showing off the store pages for the #TTRPG release. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... #dev #indiegame #wip #wipwednesday #rpg

Been doing a lot of prep work getting Orros #TTRPG ready for release. I added a last minute appendix chapter. Slated for release on @drivethrurpg.com in about 7 hours. Launch price is 14.99 USD, and will increase to 19.99 USD after a few updates. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #RPG #indieTTRPG

Got invited to play Soulframe so I've been doing that.

The week 80 #devlog is now up on steam. Doing final touches before the Orros #TTRPG release as midnight rolls over to the 19th. store.steampowered.com/news/app/347... #indiedev #gamedev #gameart #rpg

The Orros book is now in a ready to release state. All interstitial art is finished. Ready for release on the 19th on both DriveThruRPG and Itch. #indiettrpg #ttrpg #rpg #wip #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

Still doing interstitials, the book is almost done. :3 #indiedev #gamedev #gameart #wip #ttrpg #rpg

Been working on the interstitial art for the Orros superhero-themed #TTRPG rulebook. Each chapter needs some art to make sure the book looks like a quality product and fits the game's aesthetic. Release on July 19th on @drivethrurpg.com at $14.99. #indiedev #gamedev #gameart #wip #ttrpg #rpg
