Is this my first professional post on Blueksy? Maybe!
But I am very happy to be representing @pemetawe.bsky.social at the Illuminate Play Conference.
Truly an amazing event and I am grateful to be a small part of it.

A weekend of playtesting at @protocon-bc.bsky.social has me thinking about how to be a good playtester and I'm workshopping some ideas for next year. What are your tips for how to be helpful and constructive as a playtester?

One of the games at @protocon-bc.bsky.social is designed by an 11 year old! Made sure to bring my daughter in time to playtest it, both to let her see the process and to show support. It's so fantastic to see such a diverse crowd.

@protocon-bc.bsky.social has me thinking about my design that I haven't touched for a few years. Feeling inspired and had some great ideas I'm keen to test.

My mind and heart are full (and my body is sore) after a whirlwind day trip to @protocon-bc.bsky.social. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to play test games in this concentration, and it was amazing to be in a room full of folks who want to have fun and make that fun the best it can be.
