Verdant Arizona is now live on BoardGameArena! en.boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?ga...

These are some suuuper good tips for those using Affinity.

I've not done print-making in years - but just put this one together. The original is from an old book of poetry. I hope it prints well!

Really sad to hear. Gambrinous do a lot of cool and new things in the tabletop-esque videogame space.

Today is my birthday. If you wanna give me something: Spread my art. Thank you.

I just played Flesh and Blood. Oh no, it was really good!

I'm busy this weekend. And also poor. #BoardGames #WritersLife #choices

Galen's second mint tin campaign is absolutely crushing it over on Kickstarter! @galens-games.bsky.social www.kickstarter.com/projects/gal...

Sick of waiting for Brass: Pittsburgh. Played this instead!

Well... Soothsayers is incredible. Go play it.

@kitworldz.bsky.social My kid likes your game.

Luzon Rails didn't exactly sell a million copies (yet!), but I love that it has its fans! boardgamegeek.com/blog/5443/bl...

It looks prettier now! I also added a high-readability version for people (like me), who struggle with colours or small text. A productive Sunday! Now, this needs a load of testing...

Building an Invaluable implementation on BoardGameArena! Current status: functional but ugly.

Game night with my six year old. Two games of Double Seven and then Love Letter. Great!

My six-year-old daughter did a "pick any card" trick, chaotically shuffled the deck and then pulled the correct card from the middle. Incredible! I was so proud - thought she was a magical prodigy! Turns out she just got lucky. In her first ever card trick, she just randomly pulled the chosen card.

A fantastic overview and review of @robindavid.bsky.social 's Verdant Arizona by The Family Gamers. They gave it an 8/10. Have you played it yet? www.thefamilygamers.com/verdant-ariz...

This is like The Ring with Irish stuff.

How to play Tiberpunk: gamefound.com/en/projects/...

I’ve played games that come in wallets, but this is my first venture into the mint tin space with Verdant Arizona from @galens-games.bsky.social, and what a fun experience it was collecting and strategically organizing cacti! 🔗 bit.ly/4umhg4O #boardgames #tabletop #gaminglife

Let's talk about Tiberpunk and how it got made. A thread 🧵 🎲 ✂️

The state of Netrunner is so cool right now - I don't know how we got so lucky. The best game that has you taking down corporations is really run by fans and given away for free.

We’re delighted to reveal the Irish Games art-piece we commissioned from acclaimed Irish artist and game developer @denmanrooke.com, showcasing some of the incredible games and characters from across Irish games, alongside touchpoints of Irish culture. www.imirt.ie/news/2026/3/...

Friends, chumps, wizards-of-ill-repute: today we launched our DEMO for Sparrow Warfare! If you are into deckbuilders and somehow not already 110% consumed with Slay The Spire 2, give us a whirl over the weekend! store.steampowered.com/app/4396770/... #indiedev #indiegamedev #deckbuilder #demo

My buddy Galen is the publisher…I’m a big Verdant Arizona evangelist. It’s a prickly take and make, I think you’d love it! Robin did fantastic work on the design

@robindavid.bsky.social wut is this?!?!

a single paragraph guide to taking pleasure in both the games you play and the material you put into the world. via @meredithgran.com meredithgran.com/perfect-tide...

This guy gets it.

People, we have to get better at naming games!

Read @chrisbacke.bsky.social design diary for the game that became Tiberpunk. This one was really fun to make together! entrogames.substack.com/p/designer-d...

Awesome, well done Robin!

This has got to merit a look on the strength of the titular pun alone

Tiberpunk - a game I designed with @chrisbacke.bsky.social - is on Kickstarter and kicking ass. Be a hacker in ancient Rome - bio-augment yourself and run from the fuzz! It's the biggest game I've ever designed. Go have a look! www.kickstarter.com/projects/idv...

Yo, this is my game! (and @chrisbacke.bsky.social) www.youtube.com/watch?v=6swB...

Look at this cute little doggy drone! Bet he has nothing sinister planned!

Mother-in-law did a little European road trip, so we got to directly compare Belgian and Swiss chocolates. Verdict is in and unanimous: Belgium should stick to waffles!

My kid just tried hummus. "It tastes like your smell." I'm devastated.

Making games is a LOT easier than getting eyeballs on them, lemme tell ya! Speaking of... our weird bird deckbuilder has a great new free playtest build out: 🦜 Daily flights! 🦩 Tutorial! 🦚 2 playstyles! 🦆 So… many… birds!!! Join us! Or tell a friend! store.steampowered.com/app/3473440/...

We played Beyond the Sun, which is a favourite of mine. This was a really weird session, with loads of automation and no blue technologies. By the end of the game, which took a fair bit longer than normal, all players had maxed out their automation tracks.

Alexandros is a fantastic old-school game. All players decide how Alexander moves around the region, dividing it into regions as he moves. And then we fight for control of those regions. One of the players asked to buy my copy when we finished!

I taught The King is Dead to two new players yesterday. Fun all around - the French invaded! I've so much respect for how much this game does with so few rules.

C'mon - just one more rating to get ranked on BGG!

My TTRPG chat group does not appreciate how much time I, a busy professional grownup, spend finding the perfect reaction gifs for their bullshit.
