Ring of Ages

D&D campaign setting

Six realms, connected through a golden ring, and those beyond, stretching into the starry skies Above and the abyssal depths Below. Time marches on, the Ring turns, civilisations rise and fall and ordinary people must deal with the fallout of the inevitable passage of time.

The Ring of Ages is a custom setting I've been writing for and running games in since 2021, building up its lore and locations over time and as the plot demands. I've created several playable lineages, drawn maps and built a private wiki/reference page for my players.

Text adventures

Experiments with Twine

I've been experimenting with Twine to write various text adventures and pieces of interactive fiction. One of those experiments is a short story about a young man who slowly comes to remember that time is looping, his friends haven't noticed a thing, his declining mental state, and his subsequent struggle with the antagonist who's responsible for it all.

This short story is available to read through on my Itch.io page.

Tiny games

Game jams and exploration

I've made several prototypes and experiments in GameMaker, the first of which was the one shown above, named The Last Wildfire. It has grid-based movement, and you need to pick up as many birds as possible and then escape the level before the spreading fire gets you.

A later prototype was under the name Mask of Many Faces, an idea for a platformer where you could pick up masks that changed your movement abilities, but you could only carry one mask at a time, so you had to be careful where you left which mask.

This Planet Hates You

Board game in progress

A work in progress. I'm working on creating a cooperative board game where the players have crash landed their ship on a dangerous planet and need to explore, collect resources and repair their ship before the terrible weather causes it to break down completely. Each round has a random weather event, and every type of weather comes with its own drawbacks and advantages.

Aurus-II

Sci-fi novel

I have a few writing projects running at all times. One of my current ones is Aurus-II, a story about a small crew sent to re-establish a remote planetary outpost, after it was abandoned ten years prior due to a mysterious incident. What happened to the last crew that inhabited this outpost? How many of the many myths and rumours surrounding the failed colony on Aurus-II are true, and how will they overcome these dangers? Who knows, certainly not me. I'm still working on the first draft. :)
