I cancelled my subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud. While the software is good, the sticker price is too high, and the lock-in is awful.
Back to Affinity I go.
Yes, this means that Ingenium 2nd Edition, Aether 2nd Edition, and Aethermancy will be laid out with Affinity Publisher.
The Ingenium Second Edition playtest version is now available on DriveThruRPG! Grab a copy at let us know what you think!

The manuscript for Ingenium Second Edition is complete! Now it's off to editing. While it's in the editing phase, I'll also be putting together the Playtest Edition. Hopefully that will be available soon.

Back from my trip to Washington, D.C.!
This morning I knocked out the remaining descriptions for the magic item enchantments for Ingenium Second Edition. That completes the rules for magic items.
Next for Ingenium is more non-combat spells and the GM chapter. This weekend, though, the focus will be on Aethermancy layout.

This weekend I re-balanced Ingenium Second Edition. Now there are consistent difficulty numbers, a reasonable progression curve, and monster challenge levels are no longer all over the place.

Just got the final images for four varieties of gryphon from Russell Marks for Aether Second Edition, and I have to say, they're among the most gorgeous art pieces we've ever commissioned. #AetherRPG #SilverGryphonGames

The playtest version of Aether Second Edition is now available on DriveThruRPG! Since it's so raw, we're selling the print version at cost, and the PDF is only two bucks.

We're working on a playtest version of the new edition of the Aether RPG! https://www.silvergryphongames.com/2023/02/12/aether-playtest-and-ingenium-progress/ #SilverGryphonGames #AetherRPG #TTRPG #WorkInProgress

Today I'm starting layout for the "playtest edition" of the new edition of Silver Gryphon Games' Aether RPG.
This playtest edition is meant to be a low-art, pre-editing copy for people to discover the rules.
I still need to figure out a better name than "playtest edition" though.

Today on the Silver Gryphon Games blog, I have an update on Aethermancy and Aether's progress. Most of the post is about how vehicle damage works! https://www.silvergryphongames.com/2023/01/08/aether-vehicle-and-damage-progress/

I completely rewrote the product description for Aether on DTR. It's much shorter and gets quickly to the point.

@pettypierrot I own a game company that publishes RPGs. We don't really do anything for D&D other than a couple freebies on DriveThruRPG, since our main focus is on our own system (Aether) and products for Savage Worlds.
As for me personally, well, I post here about a variety of topics.
#ttrpg #savageworlds #silvergryphongames
Since I'm going to be using Aether for #dungeon23, I'm discovering that there is a lot of content I have to write.
If I was using a different system, I'd have all kinds of resources for those systems - random encounter tables, magic item tables, etc. That doesn't exist for Aether.
This means I'm going to be generating a ton of new content for Aether. That's going to be great for Aether players, haha.

There are so many games out there now. The volume and variety are actually wearing on me.
I think for the year of 2023, I'm going to pick just two games to play and write content for. I won't buy any new content for anything.
Silver Gryphon Games has Aether and Savage Worlds products coming out next year, so obviously, those will by necessity be the two I spend brain-time on.

Got my venti salted caramel cold brew, my chill focus Spotify playlist, and two hours before work. It's time to write another chapter of Aether. #ttrpg #silvergryphongames
