Update - 05/08/2024

Hello, everyone! Welcome to another weekly update! I hope you all had a great weekend. I spent it working on Carnage & Aether, implementing fixes from the latest playtest sessions I had, and writing more Salvage & Sorcery. I'm making good progress, and I think it's going to be really cool!

This Wednesday is my birthday, but I'm honestly feeling very lazy to do anything, I just cannot stand the heat anymore. It's not being hotter than usual, but it looks like I've reached my limit, haha. I'm lucky this year I have AC and I can stay at home. I'm not even going to the gym this month because there's no AC there and I don't want to end up passing out.

My partner asked me what I want for my birthday, and I honestly didn't know what to tell her. Sure, I'd like a bigger apartment so I can store even more books and games, but overall I have everything I need, which is a really good feeling! I'm really happy to see people playing and enjoying my games, so that's what I want to keep doing. I hope I can do it for many years to come!

So this week I'll continue playtesting C&A, and writing more S&S. This is the first time in a while I work on a ruleset from scratch (I've been using variations of my D100 ruleset for a while now), so it's been both fun and challenging. But I think I finally have the core rules really figured out. I've finished writing the four character Careers, and I'll be moving on to the rules chapter soon. I have already three pages or rules written down, but now it's time to organize them all and make them make sense for others, not just me. I've also started working a bit on the layout, since I have a couple of illustrations already. I found this new Brazilian artist on Artstation that is really cool, so I've decided to work with him! So far, so good!

Overall I'm having fun with the game, and I'm going to do a few new things with it, hopefully making it super streamlined and easy to jump into!

So that's it for this week, I hope you all have a great one!
