Got round to playing a session of Fabula Ultima last night and pretty fun system ngl. Much simpler to pick up and as a chronicly unprepared GM the systems much easier to improvise situations for.

Well the house move has been pushed a month so time to change gear and make June book writing month I guess

What an insane weekend! So many thanks for those that play tested my game and especially @playtestuk.bsky.social for giving me the space to bring my game to #ukge! Im going to be recovering from this weekend all next week and working through all the amazing feedback!

Truly lucky to have friends like this 😂

How many times can we repost a repost? (Also go and check out the game)

If anyone is around on Sunday morning at #UKGE We are showcasing/playtesting @besarblue.bsky.social’s Mana, Mages and Mayhem in the playtest zone between 10am and 1pm! Come by, throw some die, blow shit up!

Woohoo let's go UKGE! Time to scare my bank account with my love of ttrpgs and board games

Can't believe its already mid week and there's only a couple more days until UKGE! Really got to pull my thumb out and complete the last few pieces to run my playtest on Sunday.

Really successful first in person play test at @gameshavennotts.bsky.social on saturday! Incredible feedback received and already making tweaks here and there as well as adding some new mechanics to help with even more mayhem! #ttrpgs #playtest #tabletopgames

3d printing a turn tracker for the first in person play test coming up on the 7th! Can't wait to play my TTRPG in person with people and hopefully these physical pieces will aid in the experience.

Spell cards complete and wow this was a big step in making this project real in my head!

Building up for my first in person play test soon for my TTRPG at a local game store in Nottingham. Looking forward to it but now the stress starts climbing 🫠

The gap between buying a 3d printer and realising I can print all the game pieces i could dream of to play test my TTRPG had been way too big... took me 2 months to work this shit out 🤦‍♂️

It is time I am officially opening my commissions again! Check the sheets for the details Any reposts are appreciated <3

Woohoo the cards came out as I hoped no bad colour changing and the qr code works!

With the new year I've got the focus of getting out there into conventions and meeting people and making connections... so business cards for the game!

I've been thinking on an element of my TTRPG for the last week, Townships makes no sense or at least is very meh, the game is about mages so why the hell don't they live in mage towers! So I've mulled it over and think I'm going to make the change but it'll take a bunch of rewrites 😭

Just added the current list of spells to my ttrpg core rulebook and its 30+ pages... oof better work on formatting because that's not even all the spells I want to add

In such an annoying mindset right now! I desperately want to do more writing for my ttrpg core rule book, but for the life of me, I can not get into the right head space... I guess at least my Asana board is now up to date, but its just not scratching that itch

This week I've been working on accomodating for people with forms of colour blindness. Not a huge change to the spell cards but I hope it will help clarrify which mana is needed while keeping the cards concise. #ttrpg

Another successful playtest! TBH I didn't build the system for stealth missions but its great to know that it still holds up. Can't wait for the next one hopefully we can get back to some chaotic combat and see what happens! #ttrpg

Its funny how even though I have years of d&d experience and the one thing I didn't prepare myself for when play testing my own ttrpg was schedule conflicts... Guess no ttrpg can solve that issue

Great play test of my TTRPG last night! We got to try out the new way of handling social interactions and honestly think its way better now. As all games go we seem to be rocketing towards a heist which isnt really the point of the system but looking forward to see how it plays.

Been off of work for a week and spitting out spells left and right for my TTRPG but I have no idea when to stop making them... in a spell focused rpg how many spells is too many spells!

What is a Turn in Mana, Mages and Mayhem? At the heart there is an action point based combat system. Each player gets 2 AP per turn, and they can spend them on things like generating mana, casting spells or aiding allies. Instead of turns the players order their actions together in a single turn.

Been a busy weekend finally back working on my TTRPG project! Been focusing on making usable resources for play tests without having to share complicated google sheets. Nothing too fancy but I think it's a start.

Another hilarious play of honey heist last night. It's always a good laugh and very beginner friendly. I can't recommend it enough for people to have a go
