Late last night, I released my first #TTRPG product: 99 Heroic Fantasy Adventure Hooks. Completely #systemagnostic, these hooks are full of strange magic, otherworldly creatures, fickle deities, hidden lands to explore, and much more. Get it on my ko-fi. #dnd

We let the cats make their Superbowl predictions this afternoon. It was an overwhelming vote for the Eagles. Go Birds! #eagles #superbowl

If you had a hard Monday, here are some penguins to cheer you up. They're all gathered because it was feeding time. Their braying (kind of a honking sound) is really cute, too.

The Analogue Pocket Dock is so cool. I've always wanted to play Pokémon on a 65" TV. It looks spectacular!

Sokka went on a big snowy adventure this morning. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsky

Sokka is having the snooze of his life tonight. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsky

Played some Little Nemo for NES today. What a weird game. You drug creatures with candy and then crawl inside them like a taun-taun. That's not what I generally dream about, but you do you, Nemo. #retrogames #retrogaming #nes

Dominic (creamsicle) and Mittens (tuxedo) are snuggled up next to each other on the chair behind me while I work. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsky

What is a movie that you love from 1976? I am but a simple man and will leave this here without comment. Go watch the MST3K episode featuring this Godzilla Vs Megalon; it's the best way to watch it.

Analogue Pocket came in the mail today and it's gorgeous. The screen is so big and bright, and I love the different display modes. Here's Tetris in the crisp, modern Analogue display. I'm so happy I got this, along with the Game Gear adapter. #retrogaming #gameboy #gba #gamegear

The final batch of these little guys is on sale right now and won't be restocked after they're gone! 🔥🔥🔥

#ttrpgprompt Your party notices a quaint and isolated cottage just off the road. Candles are lit in the window, and the door is ajar. As you enter, you see that a splendid feast has been laid out on the dining table. There is no one in sight; all is quiet. Suddenly, the door slams shut behind you.

Today's pick is Kyatto Ninden Teyandee (Samurai Pizza Cats) for the Famicom. This colorful platformer features multiple characters with different abilities to switch between. While aimed a the younger audience its cartoon show was made for, it's still a very fun game. #retrogaming #famicom

A group shot of Mittens (tux), Carter (dust kitty), and Dominic (creamsicle) all sharing the morning sun at the windowsill. #cats #catsofbluesky #catsky

Game opening: As a courier, you've been assigned an easy milk run. But as you approach the spaceport hangar, you hear the sounds of battle. You're caught in a crossfire between bands of smugglers! And one of them is trying to take off in your ship! #caelestis

Some days you're the Swamp of Sadness, and some days you're Artax.

Been doing a lot of waffling between writing in Go with a lightweight engine like Ebitengine and doing all the heavy lifting, or taking advantage of the scaffolding that Unity provides. At this point, I think Unity is going to win, but I really wanted to use Golang for this. #caelestis

To celebrate 1k followers, I am going to run a like/follow contest for a custom map! All you have to do is follow my page, like this post, and comment with a map idea! Can be a Sci-Fi or Fantasy map! #promosky #ttrpg #battlemap #d&d #contest

I've got a lot of meetings today and still several more to go and I am out of the old social battery.

Praise the Omnissiah, it's a Skitarii looking to snipe a heretic with a transauranic arquebus! #warhammer40k #40k #admech #minipainting

Okay, let's do this thing. Kicking off my own Discord, with a #wobblefit channel for those taking on the challenge. Hit the link if you'd like to join: discord.gg/U6TCwCxhAA

Today's pick is Metal Storm for the NES, published by Irem. It's a gravity-defying action-platformer with a lot of charm. You can invert gravity at any time, affecting you and enemies. This feature is necessary for some of the platforming. I highly recommend this one. #retrogaming #nes

Classes so far: - Brawler (typical fighter) - Rogue (high dmg lower health) - Tech Adept ("caster" class) - Medic (healer / buffer) Names subject to change. Still need a few more "combo" classes for advanced players. Open to other suggestions as well. #caelestis (the codename for the project)
