Cringe Wizard: a TTRPG light novel now on Kickstarter

Cringe Wizard is a light novel by Ettin, creator of Hard Wired Island and other TTRPGs. It's about a man who is reborn in the TTRPG world he created when he was a teenager, and must survive his own poorly-written plot. It's about the kinds of awkward TTRPG experiences a lot of new gamers have: bad decisions, worse players, conflicts that could have just been resolved by talking, and more.

When Liam gets a second chance at life, he learns that gods steal ideas from gamers all the time—there are even universes based on his Sword Masters RPG campaigns, and he gets to live in one!

Unfortunately he's sent to his very first campaign, the one he ran when he was a teenager. The world of Oyth is badly written and weirdly horny. Half the characters act like they just blew in from Dipshit Town. He's in the body of Zavier Darkspire, his own blatant self-insert quest NPC, and six months from now the villainous Lich and his weird henchmen are going to blow up his tower.

With the help of his old campaign notes, his self-insert's catgirl maid, and a party of adventurers created by his equally awful teen friends, "Zavier" intends to fix the campaign and save the kingdom before the Lich can get him—but his past might get him first.

Cringe Wizard is on Kickstarter until October 16th, where you can read a preview—and if it catches your interest, get this harrowing tale for only Ten God-Blessed American Dollars.
