Sending Stone Studio

Suit of Apps | Living Atlas for world building

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

Two types of founders:

Those who validate before building
Those who build, then frantically try to validate

I choose the second one. Every time.

Which one are you? 👇

WORLDBUILDERS:

How do you track character relationships?

Spreadsheets? Mind maps? Just... memory and hope?

Genuinely curious what systems people use when their world has 50+ NPCs and you need to remember who hates who.

@Zheng404 Exactly!

The feedback feature went live.

First bug report came in 20 minutes later.

Already fixed and deployed.

This is why I built the feedback system. Ship fast, fix faster.

Your campaign notes deserve better than a folder called "DnD stuff (ACTUAL final) "

We built Living Atlas so you can stop playing archaeologist with your own docs.

Search. Link. Actually find things.

New app coming soon!!

Context Compass

Context compass will be a place to dump your thoughts, get a morning brief, and track your projects.

The best DM prep happens in the shower, the grocery store, during meetings you should be paying attention to.

When inspiration hits, you're nowhere near your computer

That's why we're building mobile first. Your world goes where you go

@BradAI lol seems like we all end up repeating the same mistakes 🤣

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

Spent an hour debugging why my API calls were failing.

Turns out I forgot to start the local server.

This is fine. Everything is fine.

Devs, what's the dumbest bug that cost you the most time?

@JorgeMenaDev Yikes lol. Such is the life of a developer

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

Spent 3 hours debugging why my graph wouldn't render.

The issue? A typo in a variable name.

The kicker? I named it myself yesterday.

Future me hates past me.

Devs, what's your "I can't believe that was the issue" moment?

Campaign prep used to mean 47 Google Docs & hoping you named things correctly

Now? Everything linked & searchable  when your players ask "wait, what was that NPC's name?"

DMs shouldn't need a PhD in file organization.

@andrealbts For sure!!

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

shipped a feature with one purpose

watched 3 users find different ways to use it

none were what I intended

this is either:
- proof I don't understand my users
- or proof the product is more flexible than I thought

either way I'm keeping the feature

#buildinpublic #indiedev

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

@JorgeMenaDev For sure lol but better us than someone else

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

The best part about building a tool for GMs?

I get to use it for my own campaigns.

The worst part?

Finding bugs during actual session prep at 11pm the night before.

Nothing quite like being your own QA tester under pressure.

@JorgeMenaDev Yupp!

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

Built a feature in 3 hours that solves a problem I had this morning.

This is why I love being indie.

No meetings. No stakeholder reviews. Just problem exists → code solution → ship.

It's live now.

@CodeByAaron So far a few errors and some compliments! A few have fallen off but that’s ok. Gotta keep pushing

[Sending Stone Studio @SendingStudio]

Two paths for indie devs:

1. Launch fast, iterate based on real feedback
2. Build the perfect product nobody asked for

I chose #1.

5 active users giving real feedback > 0 users waiting for perfection.

Which path are you on?
