The Solo Tabletop Oracle was the first resource I ever created. It started as a custom oracle I was using for my personal games and quickly became something worth sharing. The one-page oracle was my first ever experience with any sort of desktop publishing, layout, and general design. It took a lot longer than it should have, but I was proud of what I had created.
Almost a full year later, I've learned a bit more about desktop publishing and saw a ton of things I'd like to improve. The final push to update the whole oracle came when I decided to update the GEMulator.
UPDATE: After feedback from people who aren't colorblind, I've actually changed the background and general color scheme again. These previews are outdated but I'll keep them here as a record of how things changed.

In a similar story, the GEMulator was one of the first projects I ever worked on. It had no interior artwork, spelling and rules mistakes, inconsistent layout, and probably a lot more issues I haven't even discovered yet. The positive feedback convinced me that the GEMulator deserved better. I started working on a complete layout overhaul while also fixing any mistakes I found.

The oracle sheet is a vital part of the emulation, and it needed a similar overhaul. The core content stayed mostly the same. I only removed a bit from the tables on the right side, as I needed the space, and they felt unnecessary. The color scheme was chosen to fit with the rest of the new GEMulator version.

Since a lot of people (myself included) prefer to print things out, I've also created a low-ink printer-friendly version. I plan to do that with all the GEMulator play sheets while also creating form-fillable versions for people who prefer digital play.

This looks really well done - take your time :)
