And also in February I published a free pack of images for science fiction and horror games taking advantage of the jam of the apotheosis XENO by @caligaes.itch.io roque-romero.itch.io/xeno-dumpster

I have officially launched TrueRef's new timed gesture tool (Flow) & free pose library (Pose)! Both are linked on trueref.io. While limited right now, both will contain our full free library by the 1st. 🤍 Flow: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest... Pose: community.trueref.io/free_referen...

Hello and welcome new followers!! If you aren’t aware, Bluesky has a feature called “starter packs” that help jumpstart your account by following some of the best posters on a particular topic, curated by the creator of the pack! Here is one I created in the past, with a lot of great people in it!

Copies of Florafiora made it there, with a bunch of other games from the Indie Games Night Market! Thanks @gamesandstuffmd.bsky.social

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

Christmas freelancer

because Jurassic Park is trans rep

Realizing I haven’t been drawing much since I’ve mostly been wrestling with graphic design and rulebooks (oh no) but hopefully I can lock in again soon.

I got to go, demo my game, and hang out. The last time I went was ages ago- I’m glad it’s still going and thriving! Small but mighty, and a lot of creativity condensed into one room.

Creative overwhelm

Check out this BEAUTIFUL card art coming from @emilyhancock.bsky.social! We're huge fans and wish we were going to Pax Unplugged so that we could learn more about the game project in person! #boardgame #artist

Copies of my indie #ttrpg Florafiora are available! I’ll be closing up the shop on Sunday. If you couldn’t make it to the Indie Games Night Market this year I made a Kofi: ko-fi.com/s/aa7098e90b

I’m glad they were able to snap a photo of Florafiora - things were too hectic at the table and I forgot! A nice overview of the event.

New England folks - The Boston Festival of Indie Games is coming up Sunday December 7th! Lots of tabletop and digital games are going to be on display, definitely worth a visit. Bostonfig.com

FREELANCER TIP: THE 25% RULE! The MOMENT payment hits your bank account, calculate 25% of the value of the invoice and then transfer that amount immediately to a savings account and DO NOT TOUCH IT. THAT'S FOR TAXES. Then pay yourself the remaining 75%. Account for this when determining rates!!!

Just tried it and it worked for me too!! It will show up as free once you add it to your cart! Good idea if you need a good backup!

Autumn’s Waning 🍂

Indie Games Market last night was a rousing success!!!! WOW. I’m so impressed by all of the vendors organization and skill. I’m sure we’ll be able together get stats from the PAX team, but this year definitely felt way bigger 🧵 🎲✂️

The Indie Night Market at #PAXUnplugged is well underway! It’s an amazing space where you can meet game designers face to face with some of their best and strangest work.

What a privilege to experience the #IGNM at #PaxUnplugged! We unfortunately couldn’t stay till the end but it was an *incredible* experience Huge thanks to @dnlnwmn.bsky.social & @marcelineleiman.bsky.social for including us and to everyone tagged below. You all are awesome~ (1/3)

In classic indie market fashion, it was such a whirlwind I had no time to take pictures or make a post - but thank you so much to those who took the time to visit me! The Indie Games Night Market was such a wonderful opportunity to present my first game. Very, very grateful.

Threw together a quick poster / flyer for the event this Saturday. Come check out some cool indie games! #paxunplugged #pax #indiegamesnightmarket

Pax Unplugged is right around the corner!! Looking back at all the IGNM coverage—I’m so proud and impressed at how much our community came together to promote these awesome indie works! There’s a game for everyone in this lot! Here’s a thread of all the incredible coverage of IGNM 2025: 🧵 🎲✂️

I'll be releasing a small run of A Wizardologist Most Hexasperated, a 5-minute social deduction game for 3-18 players, at the Indie Games Night Market this Saturday night at PAX Unplugged. 100% of the price of each copy sold will go to the Trans Youth Emergency Project. (1/3) #IGNM #PAXUnplugged

As I wrap up production on copies of Fold & Fly! I was reminded of why I wanted to sell a game at the Indie Games Night Market. Why I'm bothering to go through all this trouble for such a silly game. 🌈🛫 🧵

Sanded resin dice ➡️ gloss topcoat

Got inspired and finally got around to taking a "glamor" photo for Flip Stack Burger Shack, which will be available at the Indie Games Night Market @ PAX Unplugged this Saturday!!

You’re telling me a chicken fried these dice?? (Please play this game, it’s great)
