Look at this line up! Amazing! 👀 😍 #PAXU

Okay, Duckies, Now Let’s Get In Formation has a lot in a little bag. Wanted to share a little bit of the packing (and stamping) process in photos! 🧵✂️🎲 1) counting and packing ducks into baggies 2) the packs of helper and formation cards 3) the rules fit on a single rule sheet

Next weekend at PAXU, when I’m not at the playtesting tables, you can find me with @coinflip.games and @boardgameghee.bsky.social over at booth 3752! Come say hi and fry some dice with me! 🍗🎲✂️🦆🎻

Get excited; our Indie Games Night Market video is coming SOON~ Stay Tuned!! @marcelineleiman.bsky.social @vawcer.bsky.social @chrisinhm.bsky.social @ericdittmore.bsky.social @dnlnwmn.bsky.social @macaroobanzai.bsky.social @aveknots.bsky.social @tedmannschaller.bsky.social & more~ 💜

📣 It’s announcement time! 📣 The pre-launch page for Counterpoint is up on Kickstarter! All the cool kids are saving it! You should too! 🎻🎶 www.kickstarter.com/projects/squ...

AH! Dishwashers exist primarily to make living with traditional dinner ware easier. It's the anti-single-use-item machine. The pods are like "but what if we force some single-use items into your routine?" I think that's why I hate them so much.

A fascinating conversation on the rapidly shifting energy needs in Texas. And if you know anything about the Texas energy grid, you know just how important it is to the broader country! ⚡️🔌💡

Zohran Mamdami is an exceptional political operator with an exceptional team, fighting and winning against exceptional odds. He, or someone just like him, will be President someday—mark my words. Be radically optimistic. Change what you can in the world for the better.

I do all my game design prototyping in Figma, including all my vector iconography work and basically all my graphic design work. I did all the print design work for my indie night market game on Figma too. It’s quite capable…

If you're curious, I reviewed both games. You can read them here: spacebiff.com/2025/10/15/c...

“what radicalized you” idk paying attention

Just one week left to back Club Spooky and That’s the Spirit! If you back now, you can get both games for $35 (they’ll be $25 each after the campaign). And of course, these games will only exist with your support. Thank you everyone’s who’s backed so far!

Stop wanting to skip to the good part and start making the here and now the good part

I’m thrilled to share we have a special video going through *every* game at the 2025 Indie Games Night Market (at PaxU)! We’re working with @dnlnwmn.bsky.social, some awesome designers, playing some games, all to give you a thorough set of previews & reviews to see the games you won’t want to miss~

This Indie & Local Tabletop Game Fair is fully operational NOW thru 5pm People's Book, Takoma Park MD

I have a whole thing about small indie designers/publishers making great games from the heart. I had the chance to play Club Spooky a few weeks ago and was utterly charmed by it. There's tension in the simple auction system that lures club goers to your hall, solid scoring and tableau building...

I already posted about this but imma do it again because these games just aren't getting enough love yet. Two games of this quality for only $40? Plus shipping is only $5?! It doesn't get better than this.

Its alive! Checkout Club Spooky & That's the Spirit on KS now! www.kickstarter.com/projects/alw...

I made a thing!

Game Market West was such a great experience. So amazing seeing spicy little indie games represented in such a exciting environment. Big thanks to @gamemarketwest.bsky.social for making this happen. Excited to see it continue to grow! 🦆✂️🎲🦆 🎥: Board Game Casual (www.youtube.com/@BoardGameCa...)

Don't think I've anticipated a KS more than this one! Connor is a talented designer & artist. Games executed well where the art + design are by the same person are rare but guarantee a seamless & full experience. Both games are amazing. Highly recommend you check these out.

Fall 2025 Recap: 400+ Attendees | 36 Designers & Special Guests We had quite the lineup of games from a fan made expansion to a social deduction and area control crossover. Thank you for coming out and supporting indie game designers. Stay tuned for our next event in late March! #boardgames

Antifa is not an organization, it's an ideology. Banning an ideology is textbook fascism. We should be anti-fascism. Pic: my anti-fascist grandfather, sometime around WWII.

Some shots from my talk on the history of playing cards in Copenhagen this week. I could easily make the talk double the length & would still feel like I was only offering a hypercompressed highlight reel of the big bullet points of a rich & fascinating global history, a legacy we all own.

Game Market West is this Sunday, September 21 at Guildhouse in San Jose! It's a tabletop game market where indie designers show off and sell their newest board/card games. RSVP: luma.com/6khylmfu #boardgames

When life is busy, it’s nice to recognize some small incremental progress. Earlier this week I finally got Counterpoint up onto BGG and I’d say it looks pretty good there. 😍🎻 Lots more testing needed, so if you love trick takers and playtesting online, DM me! ✂️🎲 boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/45...

📣📣 This Sunday! 📣📣 Join me and a bunch of other amazing game designers at **Game Market West - Fall 2025** in San Jose, CA. I'm bringing SO. MANY. MINI. DUCKIES for sale. Come get them before they quack away! 🐥🪩✂️🎲

Just a little over a week out from Game Market West! Getting all my duckies in formation… 🦆🎲✂️

Excited for this one… Every energy regulator in the US—searchable on Halcyon! This has been a huge task for our team, and I’m thrilled with how we stepped up and put in the work. The product is in beta—we will be learning and changing it everyday—but today it’s free and open to everyone!

It remains the fact that violence is bad. It also remains a fact that in a group that constantly calls for violence, that violence will wrap around and harm them. No one is safe from their calls to harm, because increasing the amount of gun violence in our society helps no one.

Fold & Fly! - my Indie Game Night Market release this year was inspired by a rewatch one of my favorite Ghibli movies - The Wind Rises. The way the protagonist works through his problems has always felt strangely aligned with how I work, creatively-speaking. Sans the whole war part. 😅

The first PNW Tabletop Game Market was a success! Diva duckies danced home with a bunch of happy folks!

Hello #PAXWest attendees! Our first set of reserved tables starts at 10:30a. Come visit us in Summit Level 2 Tabletop and play tomorrow's hit game today!  https://unpub.softr.app/paxwest

If you wanna see where all these weird little games are (cause there are a lot of them), check out your local indie market!

Excited for GMW next month! Dancing with the duckies in San Jose, CA! 🦆🐤👸🐥

Never underestimate the power of cardboard. Our First Look area in Summit Level 2 offers an actual first look for games you can play for the first time in the US! And don't miss our special event on Saturday night highlighting 16 PNW local game designers. See more: spkl.io/63329A3TuN

Absolutely obsessed with the symbolism of wearing high-vis reflective vests over tactical camouflage

Little time lapse of one of the monsters I drew for Club Spooky (I got a bit indecisive with the eyes at the end there) www.kickstarter.com/projects/alw...

So in October I’ll be launching my first ks! It’s a bundle of two spooky card games: Club Spooky and That’s the Spirit. I’ve talked about them before, but I wanted to finally do a proper introduction and talk about my goal for all this. 🧵1/6 www.kickstarter.com/projects/alw...

When the Expo Hall closes, the indies come out to play. Head down to Summit Level 0 on Saturday night during PAX West for that small-batch, limited-run, bespoke artisanal cardboard. west.paxsite.com/en-us/schedu...

Game Market West is a great event, and I'm excited to bring my tabletop games for sale there!
