Here is my latest video about NaGaDemon and various projects:
Using the Katch website, I download the video and upload it to YouTube where I can add Close Captions. I am used to cc at home, so it feels weird for me to see a video without them.
This is in part for my son, but also because I fight for captioning in everything, I really need to do it myself.
It is a process and I was up until 1am getting it right. I think that it is not right, though, so be patient while I get up to speed.
I mentioned earlier that I had created a cargo generator for a White Star module that I am creating. As I mulled over it after work, I came up with a bonus table to generate Alcoholic beverages.
Here are two generated results:
Hrosian Brandy is made from a fruit similar to plums that is midly sweet and 8% alcohol by volume. It is faint yellow in color and served at room temperature.
Snentian Ale is made from a fruit similar to peaches that is very dry and 48% alcohol by volume. It is deep green in color and served ice cold.
Tweaks are required, but let me know what you think.
In addition to finishing other projects, I wanted to spend some time every day working on a concept from a few months ago. The concept is a game that uses regular six-sided dice and a standard deck of cards to play.
This idea has been rattling around in my head for a number of years. The first scribbling of it was recently unearthed when a lost journal was found. (It's amazing what you can find when your car runs out of gas at 11:30 on Halloween night.) Since that post to this, the game has changed a number of times. At this point, I decided that now was as a good a time as any to simply finish the thing.
These Common Materials is a game that one or more players can use to adventure in fantastic worlds. Players know a little bit of Magic and a little bit of everything else. As a character overcomes obstacles, he or she may choose to specialize in certain areas like combat or spells. The character can also choose to be good at a wide range of skills and abilities.
The mechanics are straightforward:
Roll three dice or draw a card.
Add any relevant bonuses.
Claim Success for any result 15 or greater.
Cards are drawn when a character attempts to use magic. All other attempts use dice.
I explain a bit more about it on my first periscope.
Off to a good start. Promise to share more as soon as I can.
