|>|>|>Post in Progress|v|v|V|: Silksong Playthrough Notes||WW||WW||KNOWLEDGEBOLT!!!!!!

i am inspired to paint, though i will not wear it


silksong feels like fencing


hornet is faster than the other knight, it feels risky but good to run


i am lost now, this game feels beautiful. 


I am going to listen to Hollow Knight OST and play theme hospital two point museum for a while


fight like a dancer not like a slasher


use this time to learn to move


learn how to dodge


tomorrow, i will climb the mountain, what secrets will i find there.


i found my way again, i was trapped in a big loop with no map, but i have one now


i built a bridge and hunted beetles


i tried to climb the mountain once more, but was cast down by its denizens, my skill with the blade is insufficient.


i am learning patience and how to walk. i have made great strides towards the mountaintop.


using my speed to avoid, rather than my sword, safer, i will pick my battles


most battles are worth little, a few stones, not worth your life, unless you have no life and desire thread, it coils into my veins, and is decorated with piles of beads.  \


the greymores is a place for killing, the warrior mapper was wise to move quickly through here, but i am a desperate bug, with a knack for dying.


I did not accept his help, and now i miss him. i worried i would get him killed, or worse. now i'm afraid i won't see him again.


move cautiously, establish a base camp. the innkeep offers shelter and conversation. the second costs of course. there are many damned souls here. i am different.


why am i rushing. i have eternity.


i went another way, i found the mapper and birds. the mapper grows on me, i bought all that she offered, the birds vex me.


i hear the mountains call, what punishments await me there this day. . .



the birds attack from the foreground and background, the clever bastards


heal when you need to, harpoon when you can. no sense in hoarding when death is always near.


don't need to aim if you downsslash on the balloons


i feel like a ballerina


i just rolled my ankle, metaphorically speaking


harpoon is cheaper than healing, violence comes easier than life, what a sad world


you must learn to fly, then you will be rewarded


my strength grows, and with it, my confidence


now to find out what i can get away with


let me dance on them, and thank them for their service


perhaps my head grew prematurely, i will not die for beads, let us return to bone bottom rich


strength brings boldness, but dancing requires patience


now i have confidence, and a key. the shellwood awaits.


the roses are easier to climb now, i feel like the wind.


use your new power against the vines and against the vines and the hate. i believe in you.


take off the extra gear, it has become a liability


the slams are wider than the hands, you must move faster


the beads to not matter, it is about my ascent. it is about my pride.


this is a safe place to fail.


perhaps i will dance better tomorrow, or the next day.


it gets worse, but i am at peace.


i have returned, and i am immediately successful, funny how that works


finally i have learned to climb, the mountain is, now, truly open to me


i return to bone bottom


and still more challenges await, but now i must rest


my eyes are looking high, i began my climb, but found a way down. the barkeep greeted me same as always. i must regroup.


at least i am smarter than the dogs of sinners row


i must rest, the digital slime is beginning to accumulate quicker here. interesting.


a little at a time, savor the dance.


i climb higher and the path grows more treacherous. but i managed to free a prisoner. progress is progress.


use the weapons your enemies give you, do not squander their generosity.


i have purchased the last of the merchants wares in bone bottom. they speak yo me of climbing. perhaps we will meet again, but for now, my journey ends.


i escaped from prison, and hunted a bug that shook the mountain. i am faster, but the bug kills me quickly.


the bug still bests me, i know how it moves, but the battle goes on and on, and my focus wavers. 


finally, i have returned to the mountain and have slain the beast that vexed me. to think the trick was simple observation and calm reaction,


a widow falls to my needle. twice.


i have learned the silk song


tunnels and tunnels of bells, but my quarry are silver.


i collected a pile of roach guts, but sinners road still bests me.


the climb through the badlands is slow and arduous. i must rest now.

skiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllllssssssssssssss

i am going through the old school primer for a  book club at the cauldron ,  it talks about using skills it has me thinking about skills. i thought he had a beard i think skills are, primarily, for the player, they are the handholds on a rockwall, something to give you grip when coming up with solutions. they are player tables, it can just be a list: heres one for  one d six too many and they become a wall, a little dab will do ya, different flavors of action and styles of motion this adds tactility, it becomes something the player did when they ask the gm if their climb skill helps them. its another way to interact with the world, which can do wonders for creativity. equipment is setting is advice i heard a long time ago and have gotten so much use out of i love building equipment tables, they do so much work as far as vibes. and very specific equipment is no different than a skill, you just gotta carry it. skills are players mind equipment, they are gummy and recyclabl...

i started my dungeon for the dungeon jam

starting over, but not from scratch heres what i have so far, see what you can make of it,  find the png here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lkEckeoP4gvIQ6YAn8TeX9fwk3MRy1zR/view?usp=sharing the dungeon jam is here https://itch.io/jam/puzzle-dungeon-jam oh no, my layers are poorly organized and i already spotted a problem. . .  and so it goes, forever. . . if you end up making something, and you're feeling generous, i'd like to see it. heres after another expedition *Mv#. . . the key is coming together and the image is clearer, that is enough for tonight i have made great strides today just finished running the dungeon for my group, it still needs work, but it is pruning not growth. ... i completed the dungeon, and i have decided to start again. the dungeon i made was big and weird and not much of a puzzle, more of a weird place to explore. there is a lot i like about it, and there is more i'd like to add, the adventure, i think, is bigger than four page and i'd like ...

!a second ||puzzle dungeon|| pass a!

it is finished player map:  you can find my first dungeon here i went too big like i always do, but it came with the granite blocks i am currently chiseling. never a waste of time. i hope your winter approaches you gently, and never lose sight of spring my new dungeons got ice i will paint my new dungeon, then add what the map dossen't offer, 3 floors in mind, 2 for the jam . . . and the dungeon scabs the histories but time was colder still spreading ice like butter, melt into its memory the songs of the paste are at your fingers, but productivity creates friction the ice is always melting, it heralds grave reality. the sand is worth its weight in platinum. and so it grows, and i have arrived again at a familiar mountain the player map done on 11/18/25 . . . .  probably. . .
