5 years ago this month Roll and Write Revolution launched that first Kickstarter for Standing Stones. So many games later and we’re still doing the thing. It’s had ups and downs and through it all it remains a fun part of my life. Glad I get to bring folks in to make games or share ideas with

#craftwednesday getting ready for launch on January 5th! 18 card worker placement games are pretty unusual, but I hope folks will check it out! @jacksonpope.bsky.social www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben...

Game designers who "can't draw" but want art for prototypes... beyond the wealth of public domain stuff available (there's lots) there are artists who make stuff that's VERY affordable and Itch has a ton on sale right now. #NoGenAI itch.io/game-assets/...

It's #CraftWednesday! Do you have a game-related crafting project in progress? It could be a prototype, print and play, upgrading the components of a favourite game, making an accessory or even something larger like a table or games room. Share a picture and join in! Please RP!

I wanna spread the word about the Elseware Express and Card & Coin Kickstarter in late Feb. Anybody here have experience with instagram ads? or general advice on getting the word out? I got really lucky with the first MIRU KS and I should probably learn how to advertise a little better.

Okay. The Seahorse & The Hummingbird is once again open for business after a SERIOUS redesign. It's not perfect, but I gotta move forward. If any of y'all wouldn't mind giving the site a good, hearty look, I'm in the market for feedback of the following variety: 🧵 1 of 2 #boardgames 🎲✂️

“As prices for streaming subscriptions continue to soar and finding movies to watch, new and old, is becoming harder as the number of streaming services continues to grow, people are turning to the unexpected last stronghold of physical media: the public library.”

Want some genuinely great boardgame recommendations for Xmas? All sorts here, from light party games to heavy strategy - including recs from yours truly. I would've raved about Magical Athlete but @danthurot.bsky.social had that base covered (I got it off the strength of his original review!).

Title of this piece: "Hope." As I recently told @smacquignon.bsky.social (thx for the reminder, Stephen), I've been obsessed with red balloons since watching Albert Lamorisse's 1956 film, The Red Balloon, when I was a kid. #KidLit #RedBalloon

#CraftWednesday Still working on the cathedral game. It feels closer to done. I like the card play and decisions for taking cards. I think it will surprise players because it’s not a flip and fill mechanism. I wanted it to feel more of a classic game. We’ll see how it shakes out

Keep the pies and dump the rest!

However, for games and design and ethos, that's probably where GYBE slots in the most for me. Do what you want the way that you want despite viability, despite the complex, despite the industry. Create unabashedly how you create. I saw them back in '06 or so. It was the loudest show I ever went to.
