Let's GOOOOOOO

What's next? 1 day to go Heroes come in all shapes and sizes, and that has never been more true than deep in the forest of the Emberlings. Vesh's war may have destroyed their home, but you helped rebuild it. Join me live tomorrow: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOqT...

Thanks to @ithayla.bsky.social's constant praise, I picked up Control UE for $4 and am giving it another go. This will be my 3rd attempt as I bounced off of it two previous times on PS5. I'm now twice as far as prior attempts & enjoying it much more this time! store.steampowered.com/app/870780/C...

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eee! ✨ This is the first time one of my games shows up on one of my favorite yt channels Thinker Themer! youtu.be/whYiZCLgFew?...

What's next? 3 days to go Despite our efforts, we weren't always successful. The armies of Vesh are relentless and as they appeared on the Isle of Cats, the rescuers fled. Yet the remaining cats found their own way off the island. Join me live on June 3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOqT...

I dunno, I think it's fair. It's a little mean, but AI can easily be interpreted as the largest threat facing humanity right now. If a maintainer wants AI to stay the fuck away, it's very clear that asking nicely won't do shit. This will work. arstechnica.com/security/202...

What's next? 4 days to go Over the years we explored many sides of the Isle of Cats, drawing our findings with each rescue, as we tried to rescue every last cat before Vesh arrived. Do you prefer placing tiles, or drawing them? Join me live on June 3 : www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOqT...

HHYYYYUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPEEEE!!!

What's next? 5 days to go News spread of Vesh's plans and we, the citizens of Squall's End, started the greatest rescue ever attempted. With our ships prepared we headed to the Isle of Cats and rescued as many cats as we could. Join me live on June 3: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOqT...

🤣

HHYYYYUUUUUUUUUUUPPPEEEE

If you’re at #UKGE and you don’t get one of these little boy’s zines you’ll be cursed to live out the rest of your life with an ever present sense that you’re a meanie. Please don’t be a meanie!

@cringer.bsky.social if only for PC ….

Lot's of board game projects this week! 1. I catalogue my games on BGG 2. Eva tries to find the game for a missing piece 3. @abtrube.bsky.social packs games for an upcoming trip 4. CosmicBeet unboxes Paint the Roses 🌹 1/2

Great game and there’s even a demo to try it out !!!!!!

Some amazing games in this list. I so sosososo want to try Artisans of Spledent Vale

My friend, Anna Maria, from @violetdaisygames.bsky.social write this awesome article! Do us a favor and click on the link! And don't forget to share! www.boardgamequest.com/top-10-story...

Rasheed is literally risking his life for this game. Israelis could decide to capture, torture, or murder him at any point for daring to share the truth of the Nakba or Palestinian culture. He truly believes in games and their power to tell these stories. Please help his courage not be in vain.

Check out Amberspire and if you enjoy it leave a positive review! I would also like Nic to keep making games because: A) they’re a super interesting designer and I want to see what they do next B) I want to work with them on more games store.steampowered.com/app/3350750/...

I won an award at work for building a retention risk prediction model that helped turned our academic alert system into something akin to minority report (except instead of arresting people before they commit a crime, we just get them into tutoring services before they fail a class).

Emberleaf has been nominated for Best Artwork in the Dice Tower Awards! Which feels like a good way to break my silence... I've been quietly working on something new, but it's been great to see so many of you trying card-dancing and enjoying the game!

Love deeply. Love boundlessly It’s all we’ve got at the end of the day

😍

Hey @ponclebazooka.bsky.social we aren't even sure what's happening 🤣😂🤣

Thanks Ruel! Playing it at 2 players is super snappy but it can also get pretty snippy (my flower puns are coming out 🤣). PS. That was a close game!

I've been raising money for @coolearthaction.bsky.social since Friday, and we're almost to our $500 goal! tiltify.com/@banzainator...

Happy Board Games Anonymous: Getting our board games one step closer to the table! 1. I read the rules to learn No No Puppy! @deadalivegames.bsky.social @tatewu.bsky.social 2-4. @abtrube.bsky.social unboxes and preps Nippon 1/3

Listen to my big face tell you about distancing information given to that player from “developer voice”

In the USA… if you can’t afford to tip well then you can’t afford the service. We don’t pay our service workers enough… not even close to living wage for most. So the “tip” is part of the fee to eat out/vacation/etc. I mean, sure. You do you. But even if the service is meh, I’d tip decently. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The Handsomest !!!!!

I'll be launching my 5th Kickstarter campaign on the 21st! I'm pretty proud of how this one turned out -- this is probably my favorite Kickstarter story we've ever done. It helps that the game is just gorgeous, too.

If you've played House of Hikmah and got a good feeling for the game, even if you haven't finished it yet, please do consider leaving a Steam review. It is one of the most remarkable games I've seen in my life, and your review will help more like it be made. store.steampowered.com/app/3451680/...

Another great Board Games Anonymous! 1. I learn Last Night at The Lucky Lad Casino 2. Suboptimal unboxes Orloj 3. @baptergames.bsky.social unboxes games and preps them to be played 4. Valeous gets through their first game of 1830 1/3

pro tip if you're making a video don't put any shots of board game shelves in the background ever because nerds like me will pause and stop to look at every single game on it.

I just watched a video of Katie Porter saying farm workers getting overtime pay is a regulation that “doesn’t make sense”

ICYMI: These are our top highlights from last week's @iii-initiative.bsky.social Showcase. nosmallgames.com/2026/04/trip...

Another great evening getting our board game projects done. I stream, but everyone works at the same time and posts pics. We do this every week! 1. I unbox and play Petal 2. @gatordave.bsky.social unboxes Crusaders: They Will Be Done 3-4. Cosmic Beet unboxes Azure and Fliptown Frontiers 1/2

I've wished for Arab-made games about Arab mythology for so long, and despite assisting on the project I still can't believe there's one swinging for the fences this hard. House of Hikmah is something very needed in a time where the world would rather erase us. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZTu...

Did you know if you see something beautiful it's not because it's beautiful but because you've set aside space within yourself for recognizing beautiful things. That's pretty dang hopeful.
