Hi @marcelineleiman.bsky.social! Sorry for the delayed response. Yesterday was a bit busy with the KS launch and I didn't have a chance to get back to you. We got @learycl.bsky.social's message and responded on the campaign, as he noted and shared.

Important thread, and the only kind of response to genAI that matters. Keep making games. Keep playing. 🧡

Here's a great way show that you, too, celebrate the joy of human creativity, from @hinokodo.com: hinokodo.itch.io/human-made

AEG would not exist without the creativity and hard work of designers.

🎲 ✂️ Jason Slingerland, @coo.games, and I had a great conversation about giving and getting playtest feedback! We're interested in building a productive culture of feedback and discuss how we approach the emotional parts of putting our games out there buildingthegamepodcast.com/episode-644-...

I like to make games that are sweet and juicy with a little bit of crunch ✂️🎲

Knitting Circle is happening ya'll! Get your knittin' kittens ready!

Pirates of the High Teas now has pirate meeples (or whatever we're calling them now...)! This is one of the ways that I'm aiming to make the game accessible, through dual encoding for colorblind players. Also, they're just fun. Can you tell what they're holding?

Protospiel Online is my favorite online playtesting event! I highly recommend!
