The doors of Langton Manor hold many secrets, but none so heavy as those kept by Samuel the butler. As the 3-year anniversary of the series approaches, I find myself looking back at where this game first began:

So long since I posted here.

So, I'm currently working on a card game I'm designing, and I need to know if there's enough interest in things like this over here ☺️

I've been messing around with how target numbers work, and because my attribute system is resource based and it's possible to run out of attribute dice, it may be possible to have set dc's for many combat actions, and to not have to give any muscle/agility/scout/study/charm attributes to monsters.

This makes making monsters far easier.

Went through cleaning up a large variety of old notes about my TTRPG and applying them to the document or archiving them.

Notes include alchemy, combat, adventure ideas, and a lot of vibes.

Spent a lot of time this week on making new ancestry's for character creation, fixing up how narrative abilities are explained, redoing the form fillable pdf character sheet, and adding a few images to the character creation overview.

For anyone else dabbling in making games, do you also find yourself making the expansion before you’ve finalized the base game? 😛

I find it’s actually been helpful for me to keep the initial game from getting to complex or bloated by relegating some parts to an expansion, but it also feels silly to get too ahead of myself.

I asked my manufacturer what it would cost to add Braille embossing to my game. Not because I think Braille readers are lining up to play, but, y'know, it'd be cool if they COULD.

So this IS a thing the factory can do--I wasn't even sure-- but for a 1,000-unit run, 2-sided embossing would bump the unit cost up $2.38, which unfortunately puts it firmly into "stretch goal" territory for me.

...my next game will have less than 500 cards.

I've written a second edition of my ebook, How to Design Card Games: https://troypress.itch.io/how-to-design-card-games #CardGames #TabletopDesign

Got 4 more people to try making characters using my TTRPG rules.

As you may expect, lots of players do not read the character creation rules and try to interpret what they can from the character sheet at a glance, which lead to interesting notes about the character sheet itself.

I've made adjustments for clarity and to make it easier to assume how many of each type of feature you get.

I should make certain you can know the genre just from the character sheet.

I'm thinking about using a horizontal character sheet for my tabletop RPG, or a character sheet that folds into a booklet.

What do you think about that?

Some rules for my TTRPG about how to roleplay outside of sessions, and some of the roleplay scenarios the GM can give special rewards for.

What do you think?

Some early drafts of characters sheets, craft-able items, and combat acts for my TTRPG.

one of my hobbies is to make my own board games. it's splashing onto my son (5) who is making his own #TabletopDesign game. it's not the best...but it's playable. and, he made it for himself and not me. not to say he wasn't seeking my approval. but this is huge to me. he's definitely a chip off the old block.

More work on my TTRPG. These pages help introduce new players to tabletop roleplaying games.

What do you think? Is any of it unnecessary? Is anything missing?

Q: what is the design problem term to describe the player that takes over? It's a tabletop term. Not "snowballing" but something else. When the design allows a player makes decisions for others, etc. I have the flu and cannot for the life of me remember it or find it. Thank you!

Thinking of hashtags that could make #TTRPG talk easier to navigate, e.g.:

#sessionReport for what's happening at your table.
#gameRunning for how you GM, DM, referee, whatever.

When combining with other words, I suspect "tabletop" may be easier on screen readers than "TTRPG." So…

#tabletopDesign for talking about making in general.
#tabletopWIP to show what you're working on specifically.
#tabletopSolo for games you play on your own.
#tabletopReading for looking at texts.

Thoughts?
