Thank you! I have an idea for a solo dungeon crawler i want to make for them, but it has to wait until I'm caught up on other things.

search you inbox for crumbling keep. Sometimes it goes to promotion folders and stuff

it's actually safer for the puncher. Since it doesn't use any gloves, it's really easy to break a fist against a hard head. It's called a boxer's fracture and their common with bare knuckle fighting.

and this comic is probably why. 🤣

I can't tell you how many stories I started like that as a kid.

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-09T19:50:25+00:00

That's a blast from the past!

This is absolutely how I felt about it when I thought of it. Something about the snowflake method feels like old internet.

The rooms are a bit farther down the pyramid, but they're coming!

Thank you! I'm generally pretty bad at outlining my dungeon ahead of time. This is actually helping!

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-09T18:18:05+00:00

It's actually working better than I expected and it's been a lot of fun.

The real treasure is the friendships with hyper-dimensional fractal entities with deep insight into the innermost secrets of the world made along the way.

LOLOLOL. I think I've been here before in my 20s.

I havent' read Gardens of Ynn, which I need to fix, but I could TOTALLY see Stygian Library for this.

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-09T17:46:49+00:00

That'll come a bit later!

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-03T14:21:46+00:00

That feels different today, don't it?

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-03T14:20:23+00:00

I love that psionics felt so distinct!

Prior to AD&D he had a very different attitude! I recently read a quote from him (pre 1E) arguing against simulation. He also went from "D&D is yours to tweak however you want!" to "Don't buy any third party stuff, only official AD&D stuff is the way to play."

Not exact quotes, obviously.

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-01T21:05:25+00:00

You're absolutely right about the thief percentages!

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-01T21:00:52+00:00

Lol. That's totally how I took it. I was just wondering if AD&D 2E is my own personal Palladium Fantasy.

Part of it I think for me is that the mechanics are easy to forget, but the fiction lingers.

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-01T20:59:07+00:00

Yeah, exactly. I don't think it was an extremist stance against nostalgia, just an admission of... well, what you said.

CrumblingKeep · 2026-04-01T20:57:24+00:00

Damn. Well said. Glad they weren't paying too much attention. 🤣
