I used to think game mastering was harder than starting a business. Then, a switch flipped.
7 things we learned by interviewing 100 game masters
When it comes to creating the best possible campaign management system, the more input, the better. Since March, I’ve talked to nearly a hundred GMs, and I’m incredibly excited to share what we’ve learned. Let’s start with an overview, and in the coming months, I’ll follow up with a deep-dive into each area.
Meet the Bringing Fire team
Meet the founders of TTRPG tech startup Bringing Fire: Avery, Steph, and Josh. They have different work backgrounds, but all share a passion for building smart, well-designed digital tools for gamers that respect the spirit of the hobby.
Debuting Bringing Fire
The mission of Bringing Fire is to level up the tech used in tabletop role-playing games with user-centric design, content portability, and open standards. To start, we’re building an intelligent campaign authoring system for gamemasters that integrates with creative tools and virtual tabletops. As we progress, we want to forge a coalition of TTRPG businesses to modernize and grow the whole industry.
