CAN. NOT. WAIT. First ever co-design with the amazing Brett J. Gilbert (and 48,237th co-design with the similarly awesome @trevormbenjamin.bsky.social). Also my first collaboration with @mightyboards.bsky.social, and it's been fantastic. 2e0yc.r.sp1-brevo.net/mk/cl/f/sh/1...

It's time to talk about the enshittification of Crunchyroll youtu.be/B-DX0Zolr6g

Hi, I'm looking for work! 💡 I'm a pixel game artist, with +9 years of experience doing environment, characters, animation and UI. I'm mainly looking for long-term contract, but I'm open to other types of works. Portfolio and more information below +

Apparently, M’Quve is also ready. (Seriously, Gundam 0079 can get very… odd?)

Hey @gilarpgs.bsky.social, I'm back. And I'm back on my 7 day, let's-get-this-game-out-there thing.

On the right, Bagration has made the mistake of pushing 2 artillery to the approach without any other units in support. He is about to lose them and the entire location when the enemy takes advantage of his (my) stupidity. (Napoleon’s Triumph by Rachel Simmons.)

Thank you @vangamegarden.bsky.social ! This event is such a ray of goodness in our world. My chibi-artist and I had a great time visiting and hope to run our own booth there next year.

No private corporation is going to spend billions on a project they can’t profit from. Government not only exists to take on projects in the public interest that would not directly create profit, but also to do things PEOPLE want instead of corporations.

Leviathan Wilds, it’s very good. I don’t want to stop playing. I will be pushing this on the family to tackle this weekend but first I must play through all the characters and classes… (I should note that I play 2-handed solo instead of using the solo rules.)

Often when our list of Adobe alternatives is shared people comment that it's okay to pirate Adobe software. It's not, because that still supports Adobe through usage and staying in their ecosystem. Instead, do look into alternatives! github.com/KenneyNL/Ado...

We're baaaa-aaack! Mentioned In Dispatches S15 E1 – The Wargaming “Canon” Brant/Cyrano/Ardwulf/Liz try to answer Liz's question: “what’s in the Wargaming Canon of those games that you expect people to have played if they’re claiming to be a wargamer” armchairdragoons.com...

I would like to say that Rupert Murdoch is an awful person who has contributed almost more than anyone to the collapse of democracy. And I'm saying that now b/c I likely won't be allowed to say it when he dies.

Ruin a song by adding the word "literally" to the title. “Literally Bad”

With everything going on with YouTube lately, I think you should know about another problem that's particularly bad in the anime space, and getting worse everywhere. youtu.be/q95m-4Wm1to

Played La Famiglia last night. A strictly four player (2v2) area control Euro with a mafia theme. Three hours to play but it was a good flow of action. Not a theme I am interested in but the game play is solid.

Wedge’s Amble

¡Ay! Santísima Trinidad, such a chonker that even your counter stack is huge. (She had more guns than any other ship of the Age of Sail.) Near her, Héros has struck and Redoutable is aflame. (Flying Colors by @gmtgames.bsky.social)

With Bucentaure getting a bit leaky and Redoutable on fire, Villeneuve has shifted his flags to Neptune but she’s also beginning to fill with holes. How’s a man supposed to get out of Trafalgar alive?!? (Flying Colors by @gmtgames.bsky.social )

My boss: Can't you get Copilot to validate the info in the spreadsheet? Me: Well, do we want it to be accurate or not? Because either I check it myself or I ask Copilot and then check its output *and* the spreadsheet, so... Boss: What's the point of Copilot then? Me: Exactly.

It's been a while since I've posted this. All of the co-designs that have come out of the Cambridge Cabal. Does not include our solo work or designs outside of the Cambridge Cabal. @trevormbenjamin.bsky.social @matthewdunstan.bsky.social

Farewell, Quinn. There was nobody like you.

Well we've unlocked Pearl Witherington's bunny, which is something I thought I would never say. www.kickstarter.com/projects/bad...

There's a *BANANAS* sale going on right now on threadless, including shirts for $12.50 kyleferrin.threadless.com

New addition to the 2026 lineup. The kickstarter for War Chest: Shock Tactics is live. It was a really exciting opportunity to expand the War Chest line with this new expansion. The "shock" mechanism we added really changes the feel of the game. www.kickstarter.com/projects/ald...

I’ve got an adult kid moving to Germany for grad school soon. Figuring out how to find & sign a contract for an apartment is tricky. DM me if you’ve got experience or tips with this.

A game I preordered from the publisher 6 months ago but gets fulfilled through a Canadian retailer (Board Game Bliss) is now being held up as they navigate the tariffs. One of our community members shared his own experience with this exact situation: www.boardgamequest.com/confessions-...

C3i version setup of the Trafalgar scenario for Flying Colors. Collingwood feels a little too far ahead of the leeward line? #wargames

Two of my Halfling Blitz Bowl fellas varnished and ready to romp on to the pitch. Miniature gaming is irrational - all that space and storage requirements plus arts and crafts work before you can even play! *WHY DO I DO THIS TO MYSELF?* #blitzbowl

Stalker done and dry to touch. #battletech

Currently soloing Earthborne Rangers on my table. After suffering through it, I would advise new players to only read the Prologue rather than play through it. I also feel like I need to 2-hand it, make it a buddy-ranger story.

Today is the HotT Clash of Champions! Pacific War knocked off Roads to Gettysburg II. Empire of the Sun took down The U.S. Civil War. Now we have a clash of Pacific Theater titans. Herman v. Herman. Pacific War v. Empire of the Sun. Which game are you picking?

Hello friends! I now have a Steam page for my current game: Acceptable Losses. Follow the link and wishlist! store.steampowered.com/app/3884200/... #indiedev #indiegame #godot

About to teach youngest child my favourite game of all time and I’m nervous she will bounce off it. (“Leaving Earth”) #boardgames

Kenney Game Assets All-in-1 just leveled up to v3.1.0! 🎨✨ New asset packs added and existing ones updated, see the changelog for more detail. Psst... MakeRoom gets its very first free update tomorrow! 🛋️

Had an interesting chat with a pal who says that he forces himself to play multi-player games so that he can get in a necessary amount of socializing. To which I responded that I put up with socializing in order to get in a necessary amount of games played. He is Spock. I am Mirror Spock.

Youngest child decided that we needed personalized investigator cards so she drew us a pair. I’m the eye ball with a bag called “Baggo”. She’s the hard boiled one armed with a pencil.

Most ridiculously depressing thing today was someone who came up to our booth asking if we were selling a game. We were not, because we don't make that game! (And no, not Asmodee). Why did he think this? He showed phone with Gemini stating "Asmadi Games, producers of [game X], bla bla bla" (1/2)

This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free. freedomtobuy.games
