Watch Well Games: Issue #28
Sneak peek at my new game "No Clout." Schlau's soft launch on Patreon.
Welcome to our RPG community newsletter!
What.
A.
Week.
In next Friday’s issue, I’ll return with both the Accounts of Adventure and “Make a game with me” - and possibly more.
For Today:
Schlau of Light in Darkness Gaming: Free maps & Patreon Soft Launch
Coming Soon: No Clout
A Bag Within a Bag
Hi everyone. I’m K.J. If you’d like to learn more about me, click that lil’ green button below.
Schlau’s Free Maps Return and Patreon Soft Launch
Schlau of Light in Darkness Gaming is busy building his Patreon for all things map-related.
In the meantime, he has this free map for you to enjoy as part of the soft launch for his Patreon (which you can join for free today).
The pack includes a hidden interior set of halls, but these maps can be used without them.
If you missed out on any previous free maps, no worries - the entire collection along with today’s free ones are available via Dropbox:
Coming Soon: No Clout
The second game I considered publishing during DriveThruRPG’s Pocket Quest ‘24 game jame will be out very soon. I will be releasing this on itch.io and DTRPG.
In the meantime, here’s a special sneak peek at the front cover:
The premise from the back cover:
I’ve been reverse engineering the mechanics from my other solo game Conscience of a Con. I have a few more issues to iron out, so we’ll discover together whether this idea worked or not once I publish it. If it’s a terrible mess, you get to know about that and all my frustrations learning moments right here.
That’s one main reason I decided to start the Watch Well Games newsletter - so others could see a new indie game creator try to figure all of this out.
Playing games is fun. Making games is hard.
A Bag Within a Bag
The package containing my custom-ordered, handmade dice bag successfully found its way across the pond from the UK to the US!
I haven’t opened it yet. The temptation to do so before filming the video review has been real.
I will post that unboxing unbagging(?) with my first impressions and thoughts in next week’s newsletter or sooner in a special newsletter edition so you get to see everything as it unfolds.
15% Off Dice & Hobby Bags from Beverleyinstitches
You can enjoy an exclusive discount of 15% off your own dice bag. Just use the code WATCHWELL15 when placing your order. I make no commission off this - Beverley is just a keen person who creates the dice bags and discounts for you readers.
Don’t see one that strikes your fancy? Make a custom request!
If there’s a certain style, fabric, pattern, or design you’d prefer, use the contact form on Beverley’s Etsy shop to begin a conversation on the possibilities.
That’s all for this week, folks. Remember:
Support indie game creators by purchasing, playing, and positively reviewing the games (assuming you enjoyed them!).
Newsletters are free.
Allodoxaphobia is the fear of other people’s opinions.
Tips appreciated.
