Butterscotch is a new, 4p-only, light-weight (lighter than Bacon), fixed partnership, standard deck, tradition-style climber from @shreesh.bsky.social and me. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Welcome to the BATS I’m so excited~ @tricktaking.bsky.social @dnlnwmn.bsky.social @marcelineleiman.bsky.social @ericlang.bsky.social @cmyk.games @bitewinggames.bsky.social @robhovak.bsky.social @paulsalomon27.bsky.social @huffnomore.bsky.social & more ⬇️ youtu.be/zqGdA_5qGYk?...

I know the contents of exactly 1 episode and I’m here to say it’s a great podcast, full stop, 100/10.

I guess i better start brushing up on these for absolutely no reason whatsoever 👀👀👀 @seandavidross.bsky.social @dnlnwmn.bsky.social

This is a super slick intro climber. Idk how Sean and Shreesh make such light delicacies but it’s a beautiful magic every time. (And they even let me spin my wizard with them)

Came up with a new abstract game. It all started with the board. It'll take some tweaking to get the rules just right, but it's an interesting starting point!

Teaser Reveal Now~ Trailer Tonight~ Happy Friday All! #boardgames #bats

This month has been really hard for a lot of reasons. But I played a lot of different things with a lot of different folks. I even discovered a student in my school knew how to play Go! I played ARCS four handed! I won a Dickory tournament! Life can be tough and good at the same time. :)

It's real! Thank you @saibep.bsky.social

Achieved victory for evens in my first game of Even at Odds by @byssh3.bsky.social for the month of May!

A light month for me. Only 30 plays but some good ones in here. #boardgames

My game for April is one that’s been done for a while, but I actually submitted to BGG today: Tumbles! Rules and STLs for printing your own can be found here: drive.google.com/drive/folder... Tumbles is what happens when you miss curling, know about lawn bowls, and have CAD skills.

Toy Battle is a perfect game. I sincerely hope it sweeps the wargame category in the Golden Geeks. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/04/29/t...

Beach time! ☺️

Tonight’s hot take: board games are fun to play and to make, but both are even better with friends and wizard spinners :)

Incredibly proud to announce that @leder.games is publishing Creature Control, a coop dexterity game by me about mechs fighting kaijus! For those wanting more info, check out the Leder Games Studio Chat from earlier today - www.twitch.tv/videos/27537...

Only 2 copies left of Lepidoptery! www.newmillindustries.com/store/p/lepi...

Please please please be the next Blaseball.

My fellow neurodivergent folks know that when the days are hard, you do something weird to distract. I cleaned out my junk drawer today. Here’s everything vaguely game related that I took out of my pockets and shoved in there.

The incomparable DJ Kennel has done it again! Featuring art from a real crafty @boardgameanimal.bsky.social. Happy to see my DOGs getting out there! This is a GOOD game too. Very burn brainy, very good. boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/46...

oh hey, did you see i have a new game available? should be arriving this week. the rulebook is on bgg if you wanna get a feel for it. www.newmillindustries.com/store/p/dead...

🐁☁️🎈💕

I’m excited to poke around with this updated one! I dabbled with Stu’s early iteration and this one has some interesting bones!

This is a man who understands the importance of the weird inside of the mouth thing that Doom has going on.

Encountered @pikaole.bsky.social unexpectedly today.

Oh hey, look what's now on the store! Copies are arriving on Tuesday, along with Hearts and Minds & The Fluffy Rite, so I figured I'd go ahead and make them available for purchase. If you're waiting on a preorder and want to add Dead Channels, buy it and email me and I'll refund the new shipping.

I improved a playtest in the most infinite way possible.

I’ve played in many tournaments on BGA, but today I finally won one of them! I needed a simple dub this week.

I recorded my rules teach for Floating Eyelands! Which means it’s time to delete it all and do it again so it’s not 15 minutes!

“‘Transgender discrimination is, by its very nature, sex discrimination.’” Holy shit, W Montana and Zooey Zephyr!!! ✨ If it can happen in Montana, it can happen everywhere across the US. KEEP PUSHING!!!

trying to post through it rn

For the first time, my dog (my profile picture for nearly 20 years at this point and the de facto representation of “me”) has graced the BGG front page. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I was so happy to see it! I was even subscribed to the PNP? thread on BGG lol

🚨 We’re excited to announce that the Witchcraft! app is now available on iOS and Android 📲 Download it now 👉🏾 mantita.games/witchcraft/#

The first thing I shared from my little notebook was my unfinished project for the 1 card contest last year. Well, I finished it! And entered it! Check it out if you like my silly doodles, roll and “write” action, or simple little puzzles, have at it! boardgamegeek.com/thread/36938...

You know that man in the arena speech like to trot out? This is that but way better.

Check it out!! ✨ High Tide is now officially available online at Barnes & Noble!!!! 📖 That means it’s only a matter of time before my first game is on store shelves!! It’s the perfect gift for Mother’s Day! 💝 www.barnesandnoble.com/w/high-tide-...

Never underestimate the impact you have on someone actually trying a thing. I made a very quick comment to someone on discord about a bunch of games they should try, and I know a bunch of people are now trying those games! From one comment! Hype your friends!

What a God Pack.

If only, talking heads bot. If only.

just added it to BGG, including the rulebook if you want to get a peek! boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/46...

game design remains a very dignified practice #gamedev #indiedev

coming soon!

Me, a lifelong Go player watching Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 when they mention a character named “Tengen:” I bet they’ll be at the middle of everything.

BoardgameFesta today! Got to work the Playte booth. I dont know if I like conventions, but I love running booths at them. Keeping stock moving, talking shop, its such an exhausting blast. Ended with endless BBQ, beer, and 냉면 and i might have a heart attack tonight. BUT 2 EXCITING THINGS

I’ve always wondered if there could be a board state that truly became a real tie even after the various tiebreakers. If so, CodeMarvelous will find it I’m sure. As always, tickled to see such fun at play. :)

Holy heck I'm so glad I stumbled upon this post before finishing my current project! I may have also been designing a game for the last month or so with the same name. Although my game is of a very different vibe lol I'll have to come up with another name, just wanted to share this wild coincidence!

Dino Racer is Marceline Leiman's take on the wacky racer, the unexpected genre of the year, and it's a fresh, more involved, and oh so screamy approach to the format. Time to holler. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/04/08/d...
