Job Posting – Background Image Designer

Help Beautify Obsidian Portal

One of my favorite parts of the Reforge redesign is the ability to choose a nice high-resolution background image for your campaign. You can change the tone of your game from high fantasy to space opera to gritty urban streets just by selecting an image.

However, we need more images! Our current background image library is too small and we need help expanding it to add more images and give people a variety to choose from. To that end, we need someone with an eye for imagery and color and the ability to put together an image / color scheme combo that will make peoples’ campaigns look awesome.

April’s Fool Contest

This Contest Is No Joke!

Ah yes, April. The month containing the one day of the year when you cannot believe anything you see or read on the internet. Together with Engine Publishing, we’d like to take this month and put some good spin on it by coming up with a contest for fools. Literally. We’d like you to create a fool for folks to use in their games.
