Jan 2021 Update

by Mark WhittingtonUncategorised 26th January 202126th January 2021Comments are Disabled

Well, it was a year. The pandemic effected me in a couple of ways:
1. No conventions. This put a real cramp on demos and not being able to sell from my brand new stall.
2. Super busy with work. I’m really fortunate that I was already working from home, and my day job client and other freelancing has kept me stacked, which meant no real time for writing. This put a bit of a delay on Black Code book 2.

However I’m mostly free of extraneous projects now, so hopefully it’ll be full steam ahead on The Rise of Tartarus Campaign – major writing focus for this, hoping to get it out this year. I’m also getting ready to playtest Game 2 currently codenamed Wasteland, that can be played on it’s own or as an expansion to Black Code.

Hopefully I’ll appear at a couple of conventions when it’s safe to do so, too!

Black Code is finished!

Ok, I still have editing, proofing, a little bit of layout, art, production to sort, etc. but apart from that it’s BASICALLY done.

Woohoo!

UK Games Expo 2019

Had a great (if exhausting) time at UKGameExpo. Had some very nice feedback about Black Code, which was great.

Thanks to everyone who made it another great convention, especially my other GM cohorts at Games on Demand and all the players who made it an absolute pleasure.

I’m now going to spend a day or so recovering my voice, that took a bit of a battering over the weekend.

Quick update – work is still ongoing, just had a little delay due to other “real life work” projects. I’ll be at Dragonmeet if anyone wants to chat.

Black Code @ Reunicon

Had a bit of a break during September, but Black Code is now chugging along nicely. I had a great time demoing at Reunicon a couple of weeks ago in Brighton. Paul Johnson, one of the players, took a photo of me in “full flow” I guess you’d call it…

Whitt at Reunicon — No idea what I was describing here…

Hidden Realms is now available!

by Mark WhittingtonUncategorised 18th August 201817th September 2018Comments are Disabled

One of my favourite projects over the last year or so is finally available. Written by Max Bantleman and Greg Stephens, Hidden Realms is a HUGE tome of adventure pitched towards a younger audience. If you are looking for something to run for your kids or something that would be appropriate for them to run themselves, Hidden Realms is it.

It’s available HERE from Drive-Thru RPG
