Dispatch log
CollyBird is a one-person studio for creative writing, tabletop roleplaying, and playful experiments. SPACEPUNK is the flagship universe. Everything else is a side experiment that keeps the engines humming.
Some projects stand alone as stories or zines. Others are interactive and open to the public, like Roshambo and Dungeon Cards. When it makes sense, I publish APIs so the community can build on top of the tools.

Whether you're looking for a fun way to pass the time or you're serious about honing your rock, paper, scissors skills, Roshambo is the perfect choice.
We also offer Crawl Cards, which allows users to generate characters for the popular tabletop role-playing game Dungeon Crawl Classics. The characters are displayed in a convenient card format, mimicking the style of other popular trading card games and offering a unique and innovative twist on role-playing games. Whether you're a seasoned role-player or you're new to the world of tabletop gaming, Crawl Cards is a great way to bring your characters to life and immerse yourself in a world of adventure.
