Spell of the World-Weavers is a beautiful piece of work for Cairn. It’s an adventure set in and on the body of a massive titan. I love the science-fantasy angle! gravy-press.itch.io/spell-of-the...

(5/?) Spell of the World-Weavers by @gravy.press Love everything Bo illustrates so I’m biased in saying it’s beautiful front & back. All the art oozes character. Worldbuilding done in such a short space is great. Excellent Pointcrawl with stellar loops and foreshadowing! itch.io/jam/appx-n-j...

Doomed pointcrawl for Cairn 2e

1. Spell of the World-Weavers by @gravy.press An incredibly unique science-fantasy pointcrawl atop a living Mother machine ⚛ Beautiful art, just enough worldbuilding to tease the imagination, and heartbreaking text delivered offhandedly. PCs want to help these people, players know they'll die

This was such a joy to put together. The art and words came easy… more Cairn science fantasy in this cat’s future, I think!

Where’s Gravy!? I’ve been in the illustration mines, err… pipes! PIPESONG illustrations are coming along nicely.

In other news, I finally got off my ass and released my latest project, an adventure for #shadowdarkrpg MURDER AT MURDER MANOR! It's a social sandbox adventure, where players will be get plenty of opportunities to fuck over a class of cannibal uber-elites and ruin their party, and try not to die!

Monday's Gravy: - Pipesong layout is nearly done - Got all the art spot assignments figured out - Added our Crews and Entrepreneurs tables (fun NPCs in there!) - Finalized the primary alteration clock

My friend just released this adventure for Cairn 2e. Great one shot length, where reality warps and crumbles as the players seek to stop incursions by a strange order of extra-dimensional mystics. Prints will be available soon!

Monday’s Gravy: Been really struggling with my demand avoidance the last couple days, and didn’t get anything done for Pipesong. I did provide detailed feedback to four different TripTech Jam 3 participants, a mothership trifold game jam. This post is for accountability: I will work today.

I’ve missed a couple today’s gravies Pipesong is coming along nicely, the layout is 90-95% full. Levi’s going to work on filling out our tables and other finishing touches.

Today's Gravy: PIPESONG work continues! - Edited the Overview / What's in this Module spread - Wrote and laid out the faction pages: Pipefitter's Union, Sunny Labs, Molvo Crime syndicate - Added phase alterations for the four Pipesong platforms - Edited Chin Molvo's (main shithead) page

Today’s Gravy: Another real job workday. Partner was out for the evening, so I was able to work on the Pipesong faction spread. I also spent a few minutes working on the “crazy board” for a Liminal Horror adventure I’ve got in the pipe, using elements cut from Beneath the Muckfort.

Today's Gravy: I worked all day at my 'real job' But I did some cool PIPESONG stuff on Tuesday!

Reminds me of session one of Tomb of the Serpent King. Two players, a couple irl, nodded to each other, and triggered the first door trap. One miraculously survived, the other was turned into paste. Hilariously, his trinket was a gem that reforms when shattered, discovered on the next visit.

Vale Mucklemaw, who didn’t make it much past the first room in the dungeon.

Today’s Gravy: Did a ton of really hard work on the tangle map for Pipesong. I’d made a cool map, but realized that it wasn’t going to support the layout the way I wanted. I made some extensive revisions to the map layout, and grouped a bunch of locations into sub-nodes. I’ll share it tomorrow

Today’s Gravy: - Working at my ‘real’ job PIPESONG - Edited/prelim layout for the Manufactory, a wildly dangerous cult-operated back-alley warp core production facility - Edited/prelim layout for Tangletown, a small secret settlement protected by a powerful computer intelligence

Today's Gravy: - Therapy day - Went for drinks with my mom PIPESONG - Wrote a backerkit update - Finished the Tangle map - Took another run at the Hive map, still WIP

Today’s Gravy: PIPESONG - Finished my edit pass on the platforms that make up Pipesong. - Had a productive work session with co-author; got all remaining writing tasks on our issue tracker. - Made some serious headway on the graphic design for the tangle pipe crawl map

Today's Gravy: Spent the day shopping. My partner has a fancy business trip this week, and required fancy clothes for the occasion. I needed shorts, because my clothes don't fit me any more. I was able to sit down before bed and get some writing done, got some solid edits in on Pipesong proper.

Today’s Gravy: selling books at C3 Game Con in Corvallis, OR

Missed a daily, so here's today and yesterday: PIPESONG: - Got the HIVE preliminary layout done - Did some test maps for the Tangle - Did quite a bit of editing on the Tangle and Pipesong platforms NOT PIPESONG: - Prep for a local TTRPG market - Got in a round of disc golf - Day job

Gravy Press daily: - Ran session 8 of Gradient Descent - Therapy - Got the new Pipesong Hive stuff in layout, and took a run at the map for this section

Today at Gravy Press: - Played a round of disc golf because I'm allowed to do stuff just because it is fun. - Got some major edits done on one of Pipesong's major locations, the Hive. A too-short list of buildings turned into a cast of criminals unique vibes and an organizing ethos. Progress!

Last week we wrapped up the first draft of the PIPESONG manuscript. Yesterday, I started editing the keys for our Pipecrawl (tm tm tm). I also set up some google sheets to track editing assignments.
