Sorry I haven’t posted much recently: been very busy with work and various other projects. I’m starting to get a handle on things again now, though, so further updates will now resume. First of all, thanks to everyone who stopped by the Let’s Make Games table at Vermont Comic Con. That was the first time […] Read more
The first batch of printed cards came in! They ended up a fair bit darker than I expected, so unfortunately the Character and Defense backgrounds are looking pretty much the same. But otherwise they’re looking damn fine. I’ll have these at Vermont Comic Con, at the Let’s Make Games table. After that, I’ll work on […] Read more
At this point, I think I’m only going to be able to get a couple of the deck types printed for Comic Con. The Character and Scheme (formerly Action) decks are the most important, in my mind, because those are the cards with the most pen scribbles on them in my current home-printed set, so […] Read more
I’ve been sketching some quick temporary art for my cards for No Honor Among Thieves. We’re closing in on the time where I have to submit my order to the printer I’ll be using if I want to get it in time for Vermont ComicCon, but I think I can get something rough done for […] Read more
I’ve been away for a while camping in Maine (and losing very expensive prescription glasses in a lake), but in the little time that I have had lately I’ve made some changes to the icons for No Honor Among Thieves. They’ve all been modified to be a little more clear, now, and have been given […] Read more
Based on feedback from the last post, I’ve made some changes to the cards. And, more importantly, to the icons that will be going on them. I think these are much clearer than the last set, giving an impression of what the icon is for while still being simple enough that I can fit them […] Read more
I’ve been doing a bit of graphic design for cards lately, because I think I’m at the point where I want to get nice looking decks printed for the game I’ve been working on, No Honor Among Thieves. (Images of recent playtest–with thanks to VGC Game Design and especially NJ, Tim, Orson and Adam Who […] Read more
And now, because I get way too obsessed over the gear in this game and I feel like I should just have something to reference next time instead of reading through all the books to find the perfect gun, here is an analysis of every firearm in Shadowrun 5th Edition. My thoughts on the weapons […] Read more
The gang from college has all graduated now, and we’re all scattered across the country while people try to get jobs. With a bit of luck, some of us might end up in the same city and be able to see each other again; until then, we’re not going to let a little distance stop […] Read more
I’ve been wanting to play Fiasco for a while now–ever since I heard it existed, really. It’s basically roleplaying my favorite genre of movies, and I am totally down for that. One of the great things about Fiasco is that you can change the setting and the genre simply by picking up a new “playset,” or […] Read more
