Malus Hortus is here! I couldn't be happier! The sample arrived yesterday, I'll spend the weekend playing it and give notes to the manufacturer on Monday but for now woohoo!!! 🌹😈 #malushortus #boardgames

It was suggested to me that I put this on Teepublic, so here's that link should you want this on a shirt, or something: www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/8087...

I prototyped another game 🤣 it's like I'm relapsing after years of focusing on just one game 🤣 Also I made these....

Got Monsters? Call on the Monster Mash crew! Share a sheet, grab one of 5 characters with a special ability, and even change up the Monster Mash Market for a different game! Roll your dice, figure out which Monster(s) you’re going to Mash and get swinging! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben...

#CraftWednesday getting those ducks in a row for 2025. The plan as usual is to do print and plays with Kickstarter release and @thegamecrafter.bsky.social afterward for the games that it makes sense for them to do. Really happy to batch a lot of them together instead of stretching it out

Upcoming roll and write revolution games! These will be available first as print and play on Kickstarter next year, then available on @thegamecrafter.bsky.social for physical copies. We’re super excited to get these out there! #BoardGames

#CraftWednesday! Started working on a project, she’s not on Bluesky so it’s fine. But big anniversary coming up and I’m working on trying to make something fun!

@sportsreiter.bsky.social can I get in on the survivor pool? I’m not on twitter

#CraftWednesday we launched Rome and Write with @aaronkempkes.bsky.social it’s a fun flip and write about building a Roman city! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben...

We are live on Kickstarter with Rome and Write! Come check it out! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben...

Wednesday, players will labor in Rome! Rome and Write challenges players with putting their own efforts into planning out where the labor will be most beneficial. Scout locations, make a plan the Emperor likes to score big! @aaronkempkes.bsky.social #RomeAndWrite #LaborDay #Kickstarter #boardgames

Just a casual reminder from me and Aaron Kempkes, when you’re building your Colosseum in Rome and Write, you have to make sure to put the lions in the correct place. Otherwise, well, you’ll see. Link: www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben... #Rome #Roman #boardgames #Kickstarter

Time to get wild! The twins’ game, MemROARy! is now live on kickstarter! We hope you will check it out! They worked super hard on this game and are very proud of what they have. Get ready to move and make all sorts of animal noises! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben...

#CraftWednesday I got busy yesterday. This is the packaging for Under the Sand, it’ll be our January game with a TGC release after for physical copies. It has the rules on the otherwise. I’m excited to get this one out so I can work on the aquatic version, Under the Sea! @jacksonpope.bsky.social

#CraftWednesday (I’m excited so getting in early on this! @jacksonpope.bsky.social ) the twins each put on their design hats this weekend, Ainsley wanted to do something with stacking dice (pic) and Tavi created a new way to play Strike, it’s different enough that I think we can make it for real

Panda manufacturing offers $25k in manufacturing for 25 folk with 2 or fewer published titles. I haven't looked deeply into this, but I can imagine it being helpful for some of my friends here. may be helpful or not pandagm.com/25-in-25/ 🎲✂️

Under a day to go for StarBridge! I hope folks will check it out. It was a lot of fun to make. Cooor theory with dice was such a cool idea from Ryan Sanders! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben... #boardgames #RollandWrite #printandplay

StarBridge is our latest roll and write, 3 dice, 1 sheet per player, and something to write with. Plays 1-100 or more players. Great for on the go! Or even over video calls. Heck put the sheet on a digital device and do the writing thing that way. We hope you’ll check it out! kck.st/4jsvydx

@travisdhill.bsky.social did you see this one yet?

Many thanks to... @drunkcrunkfranken.bsky.social @pinchazumos.bsky.social @zhoekstra.bsky.social @ddavidd.bsky.social @vickilanger.dev @benny275.bsky.social ... for very kindly donating their games and getting tangled up with an unknown and unproven goofball like me.

Seeing a nasty hacking scam going around that targets game workers - where compromised accounts ask you to test out a game, but it's a keylogger. Exact sort of thing so many indies would ask, but it's a scam - don't download it! (Hope Jupiter and others get their accounts back soon!)
