Sometimes the most radical thing you can do is educate normal people on complex subjects in ways that are engaging and digestible.

wahoo !!!

the title page of MAIDENHAIR. text reads: MAIDENHAIR a story about a plague and its vector. content warnings for this game include disease and associated terms, religious imagery, and death. please be advised before playing. how to play >>>

i'm already running behind on this, thanks to biting off a bit more than i could chew in 48 hours, oops.

MAIDENHAIR is a twine-based game hosted on my itch. inspired by the ginkgo tree's disease resistance and interchangeable spelling (gingko vs ginkgo).

WE ARE BEGINNING a character-exploration game for two players. you will need: - a writing implement. - one sheet of paper. - a dangerous question. you should each have one. - a d20. how to play: 1. each person claims a side of the same sheet of paper. write your dangerous question at the very bottom of the page. make sure the other person can't read it, either by physically blocking it or promising each other you won't peek. 2. roll a d20. ask your partner the corresponding clarifying question. when you are asked a question, do not answer out loud. write your answer on your side of the paper. 3. the second time you roll the same number, you can no longer ask clarifying questions. your partner may continue if they haven't rolled the same number yet. 4. when both of you cannot ask any more clarifying questions, look down at your initial question. will you ask it?

clarifying questions: 1. will this make me mad? 2. how often do you think about asking me this? 3. have you asked it of somebody else? 4. have you thought of asking me this before? 5. how long have you held onto this? 6. why did you start wondering this? 7. what about me has made you drop it before now? 8. have you asked me this before? 9. would you have asked it, without this prompting? 10. does my answer really matter? 11. is my answer or the existence of the question more important to you? 12. why do you have to ask me specifically this question? 13. has the existence of this question shaped any part of our relationship? 14. has anyone told you to ask me this? 15. where are we right now, and what about it makes you want to ask me this? 16. what would you do if i don't respond well? 17. what would you do if i respond well? 18. will you ask me this again in the future? 19. how do you expect me to react to this question? 20. how paradigm-shifting is this question? some notes: this game is meant to help explore already-made characters; ergo it does not come with a design phase. what dictates if a question is dangerous? the danger of a question relies on either your uncertainty in what its answer will be or your certainty of that. this question can be of a personal nature, but it doesn't have to be. when a star dies, it can do one of two things: explode into dust or simply go out.

WE ARE BEGINNING: a character-exploration game for two players. inspired by the death of a star + the song "in our bedroom after the war" by stars. alt text contains the plaintext.

a huevember 2025 graphic from cara. the colors are grouped into fifteen pairs: stars, gingko, pearl/carabara, lava, poppy, makeup, amethyst, magic, dusk, stibnite, dragonfly, sea, valley, foliage, and peridot.

i'm going to spend my january making microgames based on the most recent huevember prompts from cara in an effort to Lock In on game design this year! they won't be the most polished things in the world, but it should be a fun exercise :)

a poorly drawn wizard cat, wearing a pointed hat and holding a wand, floating diagonally

the wizard cat raises its wand as a magical burst begins to appear behind it, what could it be?

a magical cloud fills most of the frame, containing handwritten text that reads: “your 2026 will be awesome!”

the wizard cat appears very small and distant seen from behind with its little cape spread wide, creating a cheeky farewell after casting its spell

wizard cat has a very important message

roll 2d6. for the rest of the day, assume you have that number of fingers (1d6 per hand). tape fingers together if it helps the realism. bonus rule: bewilder your friends by asking for a high three/four/six as the situation calls for it

My game Far From Home is part of the showcase/showreel at the 2025 Conference on BIPOC Game Studies. I'm not able to be there, partly because of my concerns around the state of border controls and deportations in the USA (ironically, since this is a game about immigrants). bipocgames.com/showcase/
