Boardgame designer, hiker, and family guy.
I saw a Lego haunted house set in the store and decided to try my hand at making my own. I used the official instructions but had to get creative for the pieces I didn't have.

My latest game design Mission: Drive launched today on Gamefound! I designed this with Ian Cooper and it's my first stand-alone solo game. I am really happy with the 80's vibe going on! Check it out!

Mission: Drive by Gabe-Barrett
Race through crowded streets as an elite spy, taking down enemy agents without crashing, harming civilians, or running out of time. Gain upgrades, face the final boss, and escape in style!

This past weekend I saw Sinners. It brought me a lot of joy because it captured a lot of the same themes and motifs I presented in my Southern Depression-era game Trail Story: America.

I went through all of my boardgame designs last night and rated them on how publishable they are (based on components) in this current climate. I do have a few card games - though they do have some tokens / cubes. What are other designers doing to adjust?

A reminder that you can - and should - call your congressional reps about tariffs. They have the power to roll them back.

I just got an email saying my old Twitter account was suspended. My crime - apparently changing my description to "Moved to BlueSky" which to them is an "inauthentic behavior".
