What a day. Put my back out in the morning. And then on a 45 min deployment that lasted 4 hours after work :(

Nothing says ‘Welcome to middle age’ quite like injuring your back j loading the dishwasher. I will be moving very gingerly today…

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!

15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner. Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

Beaten at 7 Wonders Duel on BGA

A new map and a new working title (since yesterday!)

Become a parent they said. Sleepless nights they said. Nobody told me Daughter the First would be cooking us pizzas from scratch at 13. 🎉

Trialling version 15 of my new roll and write (now with working title!). Most of the changes since last version are graphical, based on 5-player playtest at YorCon last weekend.

Like many creatives, my purpose is to make things, regardless of what happens. And I feel really fortunate to know this.

I make things because I can be honest and nuanced and messy through the things I make. It’s for my own self expression and sometimes if I’m lucky, it’s to feel seen and to connect with the audience. And other times, I also make things for money and recognition when it’s necessary.

Narrowly beaten at Splendor Duel on BGA.

We’ve got an assembly area set up for our game Houdini’s Last Act, which we’re bringing to Indie Games Night Market at PAX Unplugged in a couple of weeks!

Another great Games Night. Won Azul on the tie breaker and then came 3rd (out of 4) in Vikings!

My only agenda is to create a space where good people can find games and friendship. The world needs more community spaces. I think that has a value so much greater than most of us realize.

Want to play our print at home roll and writes, but don’t own a printer? Here’s how to play them on a tablet instead! (Bonus: Postmark make excellent print at home roll and writes!)

Brexit was a disaster, sold on a web of lies.

First official 4-day week for me. I LOVE MONDAYS! I am so productive. Got loads of stuff sorted out.

Fantastic weekend of gaming with Paul and his buddies. Thoroughly enjoyed Bomb Busters and Wine Cellar, both of which were new to me. Plus four playtests (two mine, two Ben’s)!

Played my latest roll and write with other people for the second time. Really great feedback, mostly on the graphic design - they loved the game!

Playtesting this morning :)

Jumbo Stomp the Plank really is _huge_.

Epic Pitch Car setup!

I have arrived. I have eaten. I have beer. Now all I need is games!

wrong place, wrong time #digitalart #rpg #horror

Off to Paul’s mini games convention this evening for 46 hours of gaming with friends in deepest, darkest Yorkshire. Yay!

Got whooped at Lost Cities on BGA!

Off to a gaming weekend Paul organises in about 24 hours! Yay! Getting photos and chat from the people who got there early. Boo!

Fire in the sky this morning. Photo taken on Glastonbury Tor looking out over the Somerset levels.

My first 4 day week. I worked on a prototype, worked on the Italian translation of Exodus, did some Eurydice tasks that I'd been avoiding, had a eye test, got my hair cut, took Daughter the 2nd to & from holiday club, went shopping 3 times, worked on the games convention, and walked 14,600 steps.
