Simple games with hidden depths
I've looked over a lot of these kinds of bundles, but this is the one that might actually rope me in. https://www.designcuts.com/product/the-amazing-designers-complete-artistic-library/

Demonstrate judgement, discernment, and your ability to detect bad leadership decisions in this corporate project failure simulation, disguised as a Wretched & Alone style solo journaling game. Dice, cards, blocks, journal, words.

Updated the asset pack - on the order of 8k more tiles than it had before. The bulk of the new ones are labels, many characters, many colors, many location. But the coolest tiles are these glitchy scan line hexes.

Learn from project failure without spending millions! Get a custom adaptation of this project management simulation for your industry and corporate policies. Train your team in a low-risk but emotionally impactful way.

A Wretched and Alone style solo journaling game. Use a deck of cards, a six-sided die, and the tumbling block tower set from your game closet to determine the fate of a vast engineering project you are running.

The phrase "management has every confidence in you" is way less comforting than they think it is.

Announcing the release of my first indie game, an entry in the Wretched and Alone game jam on Itch. Corporate horror for middle managers. How many can you disappoint before getting fired? Oh! And it's auto-biographical!
https://bit.ly/HopeIsNotAPlan
Now nearly 7k colors, shapes, lines, and letters, ready for you to make maps, game boards, desktop wallpapers, magazine covers, quilt designs, whatever. Ready for import into HexKit.
At least go look at the page, there's some cool stuff in this pack. :)

Rolled "cave" on the hex-crawl? Quick filler because a player is missing this week? Want a rural hideout for "reasons"? This encounter has stat block, combat tracker, cave map, hooks, regional map & NPCs, loot, etc! Patreon, Itch, or DTRPG!

"A breath of cool air blows across your faces as you move into the cave opening. It smells damp. A thin trickle of water runs from the back out the mouth of the cave.��"
https://bit.ly/1to6oozes
This micro-module has everything a DM needs to freestyle a cave encounter with a bunch of acidic ooze. Stat block, combat worksheet, battlemap, hooks, local politics, loot, and d12 random names so you aren't stuck with Boblin!

Gray Oozes hit hard - resist a lot of damage, dissolve armor and weapons. Seems unfair. Really though, it's not my issue, is it, Dungeon Master? 1-6 Oozes in the Dark, an encounter for level 2 characters in a tasty zine format!
https://bit.ly/1to6oozes
Announcing the release of 1-6 Oozes in the Dark, an adventure that will challenge your 2nd level 5e characters. Includes stat block, initiative tracker, battlemap, vague plot hooks, and more in a tasty zine format!

This micro-module is brought to you by the Letter F and the levels 1 and 2.

Posted my second print and play encounter booklet on Patreon - everything a Dungeon Master needs to surprise a few low level characters with some undead. Stat block, initiative tracker, battlemap, hooks, NPCs, loot, and more! For Patrons only through the end of May, free after that. http://bit.ly/1to6skeletons
Roll d12 or choose.
This is a little off-base, of course. Nobody is going to name an NPC "Talon Darkedge." That's totally a player character name.
(From my latest micro-module, on Patreon, Itch, and DTRPG.)
https://bit.ly/1to6skeletons
1-6 Skeletons in a Stable, an encounter for low level 5e characters who just stumbled out of the forest, is coming soon to a Patreon near you. Not too near, mind you. Technically, the same distance from you as any Patreon. You know what I mean.
This 8-page zine-style booklet includes an encounter you can easily scale for your low-level party, loot, regional lore, and a mess of story hooks. You also get a print-and-play map and a combat tracking worksheet so you don't need separate scratch paper - the prep work has been done!
Check out my Patreon, check out the first encounter (1-6 Thugs in an Alley), and please consider throwing me a few bucks each month to keep these things coming! And thank you!

Just dropped my first print and play encounter booklet on Patreon - everything a Dungeon Master needs to give a few low level characters a spot of trouble behind the tavern. Stat block, initiative tracker, battlemap, hooks, NPCs, loot, and more! Check it out! Would love to hear what you think. http://bit.ly/1to6thugs
Published my first DM's Guild adventure today! Without Re-curse is a Tier 1 adventure in manners. It has snowball fights! A wizard puzzle! A rain of frogs! And the big bad is a little girl in a white dress. Fear her.
Oh! Also comes with print and play maps!

Made some dot-grid paper with Storyteller Vault assets, now converting a meter-grid hotel I drew for a historic Vampire campaign to a 5ft grid to try out these new pens except I should be writing my adventure right now. Thanks, brain!
Huge thanks to https://twitter.com/StevenColling for these sweet, sweet icons! He gave me a great rate in exchange for making them a non-exclusive asset pack. Let's say I "sponsored" them, instead of "commissioned" them. Once he has them ready to go, they'll be available for everyone in an asset store near you!
Tonight's experiment - linocut style work in Procreate, then PixaTool to make it chonky . Not a bad start for the first hand-tooled flat art I've made in a long, long time.
Everybody has to start somewhere. The Patreon content starts tonight with some pixel landscapes!
Official Post from Deus Ex Minima: I'm turning landscape photos into pixel art for use illustrating my adventures.Here's a few examples of the work. The Patron-only post has more than 10 times as many pixel landscapes and some notes on my workflow, if you're interested in that sort of thing.These im...

Really having fun with Kronbits PixaTool, messing around with shots from places like Pexels.
Reading through this. Starts with a super clear summary of consent and safety, how to deal with strong topics at the gaming table without messing people up. At the end (where you'd put a character sheet in a game book) there's a checklist of topics for level setting at the beginning of a campaign. Solid gold!
Tackle Mature Content with Confidence! From fending off an attack by bloodthirsty pirates to delving into dank caverns, roleplaying games allow you to explore and experience things you probably don’t want to face in real life—or to approach topics from the perspective of characters who may be ve...
