    Follow our worldbuilding progress as we explore the creation of a new race set in our world. I share my approach when developing and concepting a race that makes sense and sits comfortably in your own world. I try provide a number of ideas to flesh out your fantasy role playing game, be it dungeons and dragons, pathfinder, GURPS or any other amazing system out there!
    I also share my concept art and my ideas on map creation and using 3d models to provide a base for environment design.
    We are developing a mini campaign set inside a dark and corrupted swamp. Follow our development as we flesh out a diverse and eclectic biosystem made up of a wide range of races, factions, biomes and creatures all with their own storylines that weave a greater tale as the adventurers push ever deeper.
    The adventure will be compatible with most fantasy role playing games and table top adventures!

    This is my favourite video so far, even though I love them all! It's just the amount of information that is packed into it, and many thing I never thought of even though I watch you work on it behind the scene.

    Wow! I love the world y'all are building, Matt. It is fascinating to see the thought and detail you put into creating cultures. Your design process is beautiful to watch. I can't wait for more.

    Oh my goddess, these productions of yours keep on getting better and better - and they *are* productions. The creator in me marvels at how much time and effort you must've put into this presentation while the stroy afficianado in me, who enjoys taking in the visuals, just sits back and soaks all this goodiness up. Thanks a million, Matt and wishing you and your loved ones a magical 2024 ahead!

      Cheers mate! I did get a bit carried away with this one - its a strange balance on the amount of work I should put into these versus the amount of work I should be putting into making the adventure! But they kinda go hand in hand. Really glad you are enjoying it and wishing you and yours an amazing 2024!!

    I've never made a race myself; I've never been an artist and I always feel like visuals are something that make the idea real, so the lack of this ability has always put a damper on trying to come up with races or material that was too in depth. After seeing videos like this thought, it's incredibly hard not to have the creative juices flowing! Thanks for giving us a glimpse into our world Matt, I'll most definitely have to borrow ideas like this for future campaigns.

      being able to visually demonstrate something is such a bonus skill to have (It keeps me in work as a concept artist!) but I think the written word can be evocative as well - especially when it adds so many layers to a race that illustrations can't cover - but I get it, wanting to be able to draw stuff like this got me into art in the first place - and its never too late to start! Thanks for taking the time to write a great comment - really appreciate it:)

    Criminally underviewed. 100k views/subs imminent. I have been a GM/worldbuilder for years and if I had one tenth of your talent I'd be thrilled. Prepare your channel.

    1. OMG Thank you for no wings. I am so full of vomit when someone says they want their next character to be a flying race. Arococcra GloomStalker Ranger... you basically forced me to put the party indoors until someone else can cast fly in the party. DM's can't let people blow out encounters so easily at low levels. Particularly if it's just one character out of the group.

    • @worldbuildermatt

      I hear ya and totally agree, such a game breaker at early levels - and still influences my encounter planning at higher levels.
