🇿🇦 I make games, art, and animation. I am currently finishing up my Cairn adventure, Downrooted.

They've somehow turned two positives (a director and subject I enjoy) into a negative.06 May 2026 22:21 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3ml7qevpunc2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3ml5jrn5n5c2fWhat's up with limited edition covers being worse than the standard's? For standard they get an artist to make an incredible piece of original artwork. For limited they just make it black with shiny type. And I should pay more for that?06 May 2026 01:17 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3ml5jrn5n5c2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3ml4kttrk3c23Just got the LotR Fellowship trick-taking game and oh boy this little game is deceptively brilliant. Its fast, clever, and each new chapter adds just enough to keep you on your toes.05 May 2026 16:04 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3ml4kttrk3c23https://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mkspty6kds2pI get to start my long weekend off by being sick. Yay.01 May 2026 18:07 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkspty6kds2phttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mk6ny6jwgk2kThanks to the very generous people who contributed to Downrooted! It means a lot to me that there are people who want to see my work reach new heights. I'll now begin working with an editor and get the new layout and art going!23 Apr 2026 18:40 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mk6ny6jwgk2khttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mjl5nvhyls22Self-promotion is such a cynical term. Corporations and brands self-promote. I just want folk to see this cool fucking shit I just made. I'm not promoting anything. I'm not marketing to you. How else will you know what I've done if I can't shout from the figurative rooftops?16 Apr 2026 00:28 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjl5nvhyls22https://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mjm7fjyuy222Is Bsky having another wobble?16 Apr 2026 10:31 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjm7fjyuy222https://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mjl5nvhyls22Self-promotion is such a cynical term.

It just makes the sounds of other letters and seems to attract all the edgelords.14 Apr 2026 10:37 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjh6rmixx22ahttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3milt7ze3y22kI'll be running a one-shot in Desert Moon of Karth today, using my own system. I'll be testing how easy on the fly conversions are, as well as trying some changes to the on-world travel procedure. Wish me luck!03 Apr 2026 13:28 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3milt7ze3y22khttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mibt4bq4kc2nI started up a new project just to try Obsidian out after seeing @infrabeige.bsky.social use it to create a megadungeon. It's great! Being able to compartmentalise and link around is a huge help. So far, I've used tables from Vaarn, Cairn, and Knave to build the overview.30 Mar 2026 14:00 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mibt4bq4kc2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mhtnw5xovk2vWhoever could've seen it coming?

No, you don't. You needn't know how sci-fi tech works the same way you needn't know how your phone works. Just say what a thing does and move on. It's no different from fantasy.12 Mar 2026 23:10 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mgvji66quc2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mguqcujmzk25LLMs have fucked up a lot of things, but I'm not worried about the hardware crisis because we don't need 1000gb RAM and we dont need gtx 10000s or whatever. Hardware peaked in 2012. Make less expensive games. Make smaller experiences. Be better at optimisation.12 Mar 2026 15:40 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mguqcujmzk25https://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mgujuntv6c2bDear fellow rabid note-takers, Is Obsidian worth the money? What makes it better than Google Docs? Has it improved your note-taking experience?12 Mar 2026 13:44 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mgujuntv6c2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mgpivo26l22fMood [contains quote post or other embedded content]10 Mar 2026 13:44 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mgpivo26l22fhttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mgi5m6eu4k2nIt's always hard to make lists like this, but my criteria was which games can I boot up and play for over an hour right now. Outer Wilds doesn't quite fit that criteria for obvious reason, if you know the game, but it'll always be on one of these lists for me.07 Mar 2026 15:33 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mgi5m6eu4k2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/eucatastrophic.itch.io/post/3mg6l2radks25Does anyone know what happened to The Goblet Wire? After season 1, they were gearing up for season 2, 3, and a Patreon, but then nothing.03 Mar 2026 20:07 +0000at://did:plc:anm6eiupmxq7pc454loklgnk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mg6l2radks25
