Metatopia was a turning point for my game, and for me as a designer. I entered feeling a bit defeated with my design, but I left with the confidence that I have a game that people might love to play. This is only because of the *incredible* designers and playtesters I met, and their feedback. 🎲✂️

Metatopia was excellent as usual. I had 3 very productive playtests of Smash Dash and got to play an interesting variety of games, the best of which was Look Into My Eyes from @nickmajorbowden.bsky.social. Elegant 2-player battle of wits with multiple juicy decisions every turn. Incredible game.

I’m at my first game design convention today, Metatopia in NJ! I’ve brought my 2 player game Look Into My Eyes and I’m *psyched* to show it all 3 days🔮👀 Key takeaway from making my prototype games Metatopia: never trust a printer to do what it says it will do 🎲 ✂️

Finally completed a tutorial map in Corps of Discovery by @senfoonglim.bsky.social and @offthepagegames.bsky.social. It’s the first time I felt like running a gauntlet during a tutorial 😅 My goodness, I am terrified of what this game has in store for me. I can’t wait to continue
