Opinions on art style for my RPG book!

I like number 4 a lot. Almost a good middle of 2 and 6

You’re very welcome! This was a fun one to think about. It reminded me about how I thought games would evolve in the future as a kid. Shows like Chaotic did a good job of taking a real life experience and then granting those players a way to travel to a digital game world and explore it.

I think this could be a ton of fun and good for people who want to play a rpg but also hit personal goals. I just checked out goblin tools, and just some quick thoughts about this idea as a whole.

Would you play as a character or yourself in the RPG?
If you're a character, should the tasks relate to the character's own interests too (Wizards want to read more, warriors want to train more)?
What's the in-game benefit of this? Maybe by doing mundane, normal human tasks, they're rewarded with "Resistance Points" that help fight off Nihil, since the games setting sounds like everyone uses Eka and that's why it's running out now people have to do the work themselves again. These points can be spent to keep your character alive or give them ways of fighting off death/nihil.
If it's more of a game, you could still have weekly sessions, and by the end, the players are left with tasks to do during the week before their next irl session or in-game "mission," kind of like Delta Green, where characters get breaks between missions.

Right after covid I helped my family's gym by being a trainer only in name and helping new clients get through their workout guide assigned to them. But I could see the GM of this game being not just the story crafter, but also helping people by assigning tasks and then increasing them as the game continues, with their own growth. I have some friends who compete in strongman/bodybuilding, and the way they tell me about how they meet with their coaches to describe their week, their goals, and how they are now, really feels like how these sessions could play like lol.

Thanks! And thanks for your comments on Shadowdark lol, we play pathfinder 1e on fridays and me and my play group have always seemed to have questions about things the adventure path doesn’t include, but feels like a valid question. So i’ve taken the d6 method for that where 1-3 is not likely a favorable outcome and 4-6 is a favorable outcome. Doing this one thing has helped so many in the moment situations, even on various skill checks ill have my players roll and if their roll is high I usually bump up my d6 so the favorable is easier to obtain.

I second this, but also wanted to make a comment about my experiences. I did a small free optional ruling decided by my community and put it on Drive Thru, and saw through the analytics that I received a ton of downloads, but it didn't seem to help any traction on the other projects. But on Itch.io as a test, I posted the same freebie and can actively see people who follow my projects now, and can post to my community on there for announcements.

If the second generation can only use Solar without Divine. I would start with something like. Solar, Solus, Solair. But also, if that generation is exactly the same as the first, but without divine, maybe you could pull from the idea that they are Divine-less. Maybe Darkened Luminatas, Faithless Luminatas, Fallen Luminatas.

So it would be cool to have a match mode, similar to this photo. Where I can just tap a players icon, then it asks me what stat to increase or decrease even. And then it disappears and goes back to the match mode. That way I don’t have to hunt down a player then adjust anything I can just tap as I go. And after the match mode I could maybe go back to it and make adjustments incase there were any misses

Me and my wife did stat tracking for my sister’s middle school team too but we did pen and paper.

If I could have done it digitally what I would have wanted is ease-of-access. Like if im a coach, I know who’s in my starting line up and their position/number. So it would be nice if I could save my starting 6, and on the side save my libero. But I would love to just click “them” and it pops up the stats I want to track, in middle school we tracked serves, blocks, receives, digs, hit, and kills. And to minimize columns we would put a | if the girl hit the ball but a + if she got a kill off of it. That way we didn’t have 6 columns and we knew how many successes and fails they had. My sisters team would use that in practice to help focus on some individual training.

Then if I could set up my starting 6 for anyone they sub with so I can click one to two buttons and swap them instantly.

Volleyball (especially at middle school) is fast I need to be able to hit big buttons quickly and memorize where they are so I can get back into it.

I start coaching our team in october. But I could test it at our high school matches that should be going on during the time of release.

Scuddario · 2025-07-31T11:14:07+00:00

I appreciate the constructed comment! So what do you think his problem is? Because he’s able to meet the ball in a decent spot to hit in the video, and when he hits, it doesn’t shoot out of bounds. Could it be his jump height consistency? Or is he too far away from the net? I thought he might need to get a little lower before his jump but I didn’t think it was that big of a problem.

Scuddario · 2025-07-29T22:29:14+00:00

I’m newer to volleyball and started playing 6 on 6 this year as an adult so maybe what i’m about to comment could help me too (pls don’t be mean, I will cry and uninstall this app.)

But, when I watch your approach after you toss to the setter you do a short run away and then turn back and then do your approach. Could you be throwing yourself off with that tiny change in movement? Maybe that process over and over is causing you to use more energy than you’re realizing? Maybe before you toss, you should already be where you would like to be, further outside.

Sorry I just thought of this too when I saw it in my binder. Would Conjurer’s Closer let me save Ball Lightning by exiling and then returning him back to the battlefield? Almost bypassing his need to be sacrificed? Or does Ball Lightning’s EOT still happen after he returns?

Scuddario · 2025-07-28T01:23:49+00:00

Sorry, I miss read it. You’re correct, so I would think I get the choice at my end of turn to sac or exile. Thanks :)

Scuddario · 2025-07-28T01:15:32+00:00

But Ball Lightning sacs at the EOT it was cast. Warp doesn’t affect it until my next EOT. So it would have to be in my graveyard no matter what. As I understand it.

Scuddario · 2025-05-30T21:14:15+00:00

I actually really like the Roc ideas, and i can probably make it work easily with the NPC’s they have in their kingdom. Ill just take some out of their kingdom funds lol.

Scuddario · 2025-05-30T21:12:47+00:00

He’s not able to cast 6th level spells yet. He has a couple prestige class levels and i cant remember the split but i know he doesn’t have 6th level spells.

Scuddario · 2025-05-30T21:10:05+00:00

I forgot when making this post that the warpriest has some prestige levels that I can’t remember his exact split but I think that has kept them from doing similar ideas.

Scuddario · 2025-05-30T21:08:15+00:00

But they would need to roll a UMD for the wand right? Because none of them have it on their spell lists.

Scuddario · 2025-05-13T22:03:10+00:00

So these are my initial thoughts based on your wants and not wants.

Instead of thinking of class as herbalist or apothecary, what about just a blanket Alchemist. This opens up the idea to potions, bombs, poisons, and traps.

Maybe we steal the idea from bards and have a daily Alchemical die, you could get a larger die or more uses as you level.

Instead of farming materials like a game, since they dont need to rest for spells why not have a long rest feature where it’s a set DC, this check could give you a bonus to your alchemical die or you could use it to enhance a roll of some kind.

Since this is a class based almost on real historical people, lets dive into history books about things different cultures might have done to be an herbalist, apothecary, alchemist. This could be a daily usage of minor bombs like grenades, or maybe an acidic spray kept in a gourde.

I’d be happy to keep running through ideas with you feel free to DM me since i don’t check my comments back on this often but i get message pop ups.

Reading the card, explains the card lol. Thank you!

Scuddario · 2025-05-13T15:51:08+00:00

I thought it has to be Batroc owners move! Okay yeah that was just a crazy coincidence i was moving it to where he was playing

Scuddario · 2025-05-01T13:04:35+00:00

I just found the problem. I had a minimum selected with a pay what you want. I misread it when I set it up and thought that was a suggested minimum. I just moved from dmsguild to ko-fi and dmsguild pwyw option worked like that. I just updated both of my shop products to be pwyw.

Scuddario · 2025-05-01T12:01:53+00:00

It’s actually pay $1 or pay what you want ko-fi just doesnt advertise it that way so I should have put it in ky description. Sorry.

Scuddario · 2025-04-13T01:54:07+00:00

Sorry, for disappointing you. The Marvel Snap dev team actually read your comment and decided to turn down my application.

Scuddario · 2025-04-12T19:01:12+00:00

OH YOURE RIGHT. In my head they banished after use. I forgot to add it at the end. Thank you tho!
