Anybody know of suggestions for technology to assist in producing board game documents? Obviously a word processor is the thing, but I'm thinking of something to assist in, for example, repeating the same block layouts (like card designs or monster tables) over and over with varying content, or being able to have a table of commonly used icons I can plop in as if they were normal text characters. It almost feels like PHP is the weirdest but easiest answer for a techie person.

Chrome just perma-blocked my uBlock Origins ad blocker, which would make youtube unusable (AKA 'functioning as intended'). So I gave Brave a try and now I feel dumb for waiting so long. Wow, every ad, everywhere, is gone! Seems like something the Megacorps won't continue to allow, but I'll enjoy it for now.

My latest re-rerelease is up on Steam! Coming out soon, wishlist it today so I feel good about myself!

mind blown. I only just now learned that the fireballs in street fighter don't just have a wacky fire texture to them, you can actually see the thrower's hands inside them!

(In the old days, that is. Now they are just fancy fire)

This video was a JOURNEY. I am impressed with the youtuber, and with Capcom, and with a 3rd company I won't name because it's a spoiler for the video! I can't believe what Capcom did with Dragon's Dogma II. Still not gonna play it, but wow, that's truly something for a AAA developer to do. Glad to hear about it.

@sol_hsa@mastodon.online Whenever I see anything unskippable in a game, I think about how they definitely made it skippable in the test builds so they didn't waste the testers' time and their money.
