Hey, I appreciate the encouragement!

I often get fussed and annoyed because I feel like things in my #boardgames and #gamedesign 🎲✂️ and game publishing lanes aren't moving "fast enough". Everything takes forever. But I know in my bones that if things were moving 2% faster, I'd be overwhelmed.

A can of Slurm from the show Futurama.

I’d love to, with the caveat that it might take me a few days to get to it. It’s been difficult to carve out time, lately.

I don’t really know what I’m looking at, but I like what I see!

24 Hours remain! Don't miss your chance to catch these unique experiences!

Games of harsh votes and reluctant concessions.
Divisions and misdirection.
Flashy duels of action, resource, & goal management.
Introspective hunts for evils among friends.
Silly competitions of pushing your luck and toots.

A word-logo-style treatment for the prototype board game Forged!. It says, "Forged!"

Okay, I did a quick solo playtest of Forged!. It's difficult to test solo, really, because the main drive of the game is brinksmanship. But it works. It might be too fiddly, but it works. I think. Unless it doesn't. Time to get it to the table.

Thank you!

How come animals are *on* the farm but *at* the zoo?

Whether you need to stuff a turkey or a stocking, any and all of these #boardgames would make great additions to holiday gatherings, either in the form of gifts or as a way to bring people together. For sale this weekend only!

A three-panel vertical comic strip. Panel 1 — A young person stands in a cloudy backdrop before a long-haired man in a toga, presumably in some form of Christian Heaven. They ask, "Did I waste my life by making games?" Panel 2 — The long-haired man says, "Thousands of people play your games every day." Panel 3 — The long-haired man finishes, "You wasted thousands of lives by making games." The person who asked the question looks forlorn.

Somebody post something interesting. I’m bored.

Well look what I just found @amanpossessed.bsky.social
Guess I'll need to read the rulebook for content this time.

Joy in the Burnout Eric Dittmore’s Adulting is not Johnny O’Neal’s Adulthood, although it’s inevitable I’ll mix up the two titles somewhere in the text of this review. In fact, I already…

Adulting is another forthcoming Indie Games Night Market title, this time tackling the stresses and self-care of an ordinary weekend. It is warm, inviting, and does the multi-victor thing without feeling like a cop-out. My review: spacebiff.com/2025/11/06/a...

Cute duck cards from Duck, Duck, Choose!

Full game components for Midnight Market Game, Duck, Duck Choose!/What Does My Rival Desire?

Duck, Duck, Choose! and What Does My Rival Desire? by Zach Morris are a 2-for-1 set of hand-assembled games where you distribute and sort trinkets between ducks or divey up trinkets based on your secret identity.

Snag it at the Midnight Market this November:

A screenshot of a Discord message that says, "I don't like it," with an image of a hat monotile layout of cards.

Thanks! And, agreed. This was my comment on it yesterday.

Six sets of three cards each. Each set of three creates an image. The images are abstract geometry.

Work in progress. This isn't exactly the vibe I'm going for overall, but it's shaping up. Lots of tweaks and nips and tucks will get it there eventually.
