Project Update: Update 38: Bump on Role VTT, plus I'm returning to Breakout Con!
Hi friends,
It's been a minute. Things are getting increasingly dystopian over here in Last Pine but we're all doing our best to keep our heads above water and use our energy wisely.
Two exciting bits of news:
First, I've been working with Danny over at Role to get everyone who backed at the digital level or better redemption codes for the game on Role. If you haven't used Role, it's a person-centered virtual table top that supports easy to make, highly customizable character sheets. It's a platform I've been using since the beginning and really love dearly, and think it's perfect for theater-of-the-mind games like Bump where you don't need a combat grid or tokens or whatever else (though the paid version of Role integrates with OwlBearRodeo if you do want those things) with high quality HD audio and video and a lot of great tools. The game has been available on Role for a long time -- first in the original edition and now in the Revised, alongside cool stuff like Ultraviolet Grasslands, Avatar Legends, Brindlewood Bay, CBR+PNK, and many more. The vast majority of playtesting of Bump took place on Role, and I'm really happy to finally get your codes out so you can experience supported online play for the game. Those codes should be going out today or tomorrow.
Secondly, pending any horrible situations like my passport being confiscated for being a gender rebel or whatever, I'm coming back to Toronto for Breakout, my home-away-from-home con, and I'm so excited to be there! I'll be running sessions of Bump and Hunters, Inc. as well as hanging out with some of my favorite people, and I'd love to see you if you'll be there as well!
Anyway, let me know if you have any questions, concerns, and so on. I hope you weather these current storms the best you can, and are able to find moments of peace and comfort and radical joy within them.
In solidarity,
jex
