Last month I mentioned to my Discord that I had created a personal curriculum to upskill my own #TTRPG Design skills, and some people were interested in seeing how I process the learning, so I am starting a 10-12 week series lichlight.substack.com/p/week-1-loo...
30 community copies of Archivium has been released.
It’s my birthday!! 🎂
Celebrate with me by snagging a free community copy of The Archivium, a dark academia/cozy horror soloRPG about dodgy societies, creepy libraries and bad decisions at university. lichlight.itch.io/the-archivium

This is super cool! I always want to play in actual journals but rarely get further than 2 pages before remembering I don't like to handwrite things. LOVE seeing other people's works tho
Well that's just rude. How dare they
A digital dashboard titled "The War Room – Q1: The Forge (Jan to Mar)" showing a quarterly planner for 2026. It covers six sections: LichLight GameDev, Art, Health, Writing, Day Job Bullshit, and Astraelith. Each section includes goals, curriculum, and energy cost notes.
POV: you are autistic and feel the need to plan your entire life, but you also have ADHD and just know your lovingly built structure will soon go up in smoke 😭
Anyhoo, big plans for 2026! Lots to do. Many games. Much art. If you see me waffling about, please shame me back into productivity.
Some content creators in the solo space: @foliopod.bsky.social @hime.vtubers.social @theloneadventurer.bsky.social
and of course our #1 newsletter: @the-soloist.itch.io
Also check out Man Alone, The Lone Adventurer and The Dungeon Dive - all on YT
(there are more but its 6am and I am dumb)
this is very clever. I should take notes. I don't always want to figure out new mechanics.
Hi hi, still alive, just deep in dev. The Coldest Shoulder, our folk-horror roadtrip TTRPG, finished playtest phase. Ticket to Tithe, a cozy fae tour-guide solo game, goes to playtest in December. Hoping to launch both early 2025. And I am considering runnning a small KS to print The Archivium.
reminder, if you are supporting indie developers this black friday, Itch's Creator day has all sales going to the developer for a 24 hr period.
All my own soloRPGs will be 50% off - itch.io/s/170401/bla...
Oh what the actual fuck Youtube?! I now have to pay to not listen to people talk slow? What complete and utter horseshit.
Excellent idea!
Today I had a 6 hour nap, followed by takeout because I felt too lazy to cook dinner, followed by 2 hours of just staring out into space doing nothing. I should never be allowed afternoon naps. I am utterly zombified

I am slowly getting back into content creation! The rigging is still not there but attempts are being made. Be a dear and drop a view on this short: www.youtube.com/shorts/f3eH7...
I am participating in a 30 day challenge where views can help me win art school subscription. #artchallenge #vtuber
Just a quick reminder to help support your favourite streamers!
Remember to throw a !lurk, a quick "hey" or channel point redeem so that your view is being counted on the purple app. There is news going around stating that lurkers are now being treated as bots which has yet to be confirmed!
It irks me that I cant use Paypal on Steam or Kickstarter. Getting the money out of Paypal in my country is a pain in the backside, let me at least use it to support other developers!
ack. I need to stop drawing cats and actually work on the game >.<
Calling into the radio station to request a song and then waiting with your fingers on the record button of the tape deck because you have to time it just right to cut off the DJ speaking over the bloody song!
so, about that roadmap... www.patreon.com/posts/mid-ye...
I used to write Devlogs every month, but then I forgot / got lazy. Figured it might be good to look back at everything we've done so far and all the things still coming.
I am all verklempt. This is more than I ever thought I'd accomplish
Thank you ADHD for sometimes masking the autism quirks. Yay for a new special interest every month. Not yay for having the opposite problem with verbal communication i.e. overly fast and often told to calm down. Thank you mom for over correcting eye-contact, I guess? Now I stare into people's souls
I have discovered my nemesis: Game Jams. My plans for the year have been derailed so many times because I have stumbled around a "hey, that's cool" game jam and gone off on a tangent.
🤦♀️
I may or may not have something a-brewing and a-meowing up my sleeve.
but... but... I don't wanna. I want new shiny 🥺

Gird your arteries. I spy a Tiny toothy shadow on the horizon...
I just realized something. When I started working on #TheArchivium all I wanted to build was a game where you create spooky books for a spooky library. Now the more I add to it, the more I veer away from horror into the cozy aspects. It's becoming Sims: University the #TTRPG.
Discord is generally the best place to grab me as its one of the few places I check daily
Should I, the world's slowest "artist", participate in #ArtFight this year?
someone is playing The Archivium?? on stream?? 😭🖋️💀
I hope the Archive treats you kindly (it won’t lol)
y’all go show them some love on Friday!!
#solorpg #ttrpg #TheArchivium #vtuber
I hadn't heard of this one but now I sure need to check it out. I didn't know other people still remembered Brimstone.
