BOARD GAMES WORLD TOUR! Each city is a board game title! Multiple colors and styles! HOLY SHIRT! danielsolis.threadless.com/designs/boar...

I'm sad to miss seeing everyone at Gen Con! Check out Bitewing Games booth to see 5 new titles I was the graphic designer on - I got to work on all of the great games on that front table! 🙂

JKR is funding life-destroying legislation. When you license HP and put it on your product, the money you pay to do that is literally ruining lives. This isn't ambiguous, it is direct, measurable harm. I will never give a penny to a company who chooses money over the lives of my friends.

Sketch vs Final.

Board games are art. Today's proof is my interview with Pierre-Yves Gallard, an origamist who helped bring the endlessly charming Sea Salt & Paper to life. See more of his incredible work, and discover how the game was made. 🦀💙🎲 www.moregamesplease.com/art-in-board...

Invoke the four auspicious beasts and channel their energy in a quest for wisdom! Azure is from designers @trevormbenjamin.bsky.social and Brett J. Gilbert (the duo behind Mandala, Patterns, and Great Plains) and illustrated by @kwanchai.bsky.social and @brigetteidesign.bsky.social It's GOOD.

Available for new projects from July on! ;-)

TTRPG friends: I'm looking to get some work in layout design. Where would be the best place to showcase my work in order to find new clients?

Hey everyone! I’m giving an extra day to fill out the LGBTQIA+ form for the Geeklists. If you want to be featured please fill this out today so I can make these lists this week. Thanks! forms.gle/iaH5Z9giYyDi...

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

It's #portfolioday! Hey, I'm Katelyn, a freelance graphic designer who works primarily in the board game industry. I've worked on so many incredible projects and have been lucky to make such fantastic friends. I'm always looking for work and hope to someday find a full time gig. www.heykatelyn.com

I’m seeking freelance work to add to my schedule!! 🎲✂️ I’m a boardgame designer/developer having worked with North Star Games, Elephant Laboratories, Underdog Games, and Office Dog. I’ve led the design of solo modes and expansions under these publishers—and I’m excited to spread my wings further!

Pirates of the High Teas is LIVE on Kickstarter! Now's your chance to back this game and bring it to life! Thank you to all of the folks out there who have found and loved this game 💜🏴‍☠️☕️🧁💜 let's do this! www.kickstarter.com/projects/pin...

A big huge shout out to @brigetteidesign.bsky.social for her "superb" design and remarkable patience!

This is a really lovely review of Votes for Women in the Washington Post (ugh) Book Section (woo!).

Do any of my lovely RPG-making followers have advice on self-publishing or licensing small indie RPGs that I could pass along to a college art student of mine? My expertise is solidly in the board game realm, but I figure I must know people who have the insight she's looking for!

I can finally announce our consulting firm is officially open for business! Coyote & Crow Consulting is available for a wide range of services across many forms of media. And if we don't have the appropriate consultant, we'll find one for you. coyoteandcrow.net/consulting/ #NativeTok #Indigenous

This was the love letter I didn't know I wanted to read today, and Marcin is as always, a master of this particular and highly specific craft(being really into fonts).

Announcing MAGENTA: our new card game line! www.cmyk.games/collections/...

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Surprise! We're very excited to unveil our upcoming release: Tic Tac BOOM! This is a spicy, five-minute, travel-friendly game for two players. Can you find three in a row without causing an explosion?

Really excited to be working on this one! 💥

I am looking for Black artists who do afrofuturist sci-fi work (no AI, please) for a TTRPG project within the next month. Please send portfolio and rates via this form www.thoughtcrimegames.net/contact Thank you!

Golden Bell has dipped into board games more than once. They target newer creators who have a success crowdfunding campaign. With so many people entering the industry regularly - here's a refresher - NEVER NEVER NEVER WORK WITH GOLDEN BELL. Don't support ANYTHING Golden Bell does. EVER.

Hey, y'all! I'm a designer, editor, and writer working in the tabletop games industry. You can learn more about my work at ericslauson.carrd.co Proud papa of: MonsDRAWsity, Tattoo Stories, Wacronyms, Chucky, Nerd Words: Science, Pun of Your Business, and other things coming soon!

Do you have a game design problem you're trying to crack? @tokengaymer.bsky.social and I are collecting questions for Missing Pieces, a game design advice column, in TTGDA's next newsletter. You can submit questions here: forms.gle/8qisefATjLLQ...

Just a glorified cribbage track, but I did try to make this #FoxInTheForest accessory box thematic with a trail through the woods.

Does anyone have examples of board games that have a score track that doesn't feel too fiddly, and is also its own board / component? (So not one that goes around the edge of a main game board.) Wondering if there's best practices that other folks have figured out - I appreciate any thoughts! 🙂

Hey #portfolioday 👋 I’m a graphic designer working mostly on analog games. Here’s some covers I illustrated for a series of tin games published by Alley Cat Games.

This one came out so fun! I got to work on the Arizona Iced Tea game and it comes in an Arizona Iced Tea can. Excited that it's starting to hit shelves. a.co/d/2EVKmvf

"I wanna work in #BoardGames" reminder: There is an awesome Tabletop Mentorship program (now under the @unpub.bsky.social umbrella.) It applies to folks interested in a wide range of industry roles (designer, publisher, marketing, content, etc.) Highly recommended. www.unpub.org/mentorship

Excited to catch up with folks at the last day of PAX U! ✨ There aren’t demos this weekend, but the storytelling game I codesigned is on sale at the Floodgate Booth #2632 if you’d like to check it out on your last laps of the expo hall!

Here’s another graphic design starter pack. This time it’s a more general list of work for hire graphic designers in the tabletop space. I’m definitely forgetting folks so shout if you think of anyone, or want to get added. go.bsky.app/AcBC6R8

If you want to learn Souvenirs from Venice from Oink Games, pop by room 204A at Pax Unplugged at 11:30 for my annual Learn and Play session. See you there! 🩵💜🩷 @oinkgames.bsky.social #PaxUnplugged

Just backed 52 Realms Adventures on @kickstarter.com - @rorymuldoon.bsky.social and @matthewdunstan.bsky.social make such beautiful intriguing games!

One of the absolute finest. I can't think of a game that Ian's work didn't absolutely contribute to making better. When an artist also knows games, they can bring a lot to the table in speaking a visual language that supports the rules, and reinforces how the game works.

Welcome new followers! My name is Estefania and I’m a Game Producer at @keymastergames.bsky.social by day, and independent game designer and graphic designer by night! My first game @popcatsfighter.bsky.social is coming out on Kickstarter next year, published by @violetdaisygames.bsky.social!

Hey all 👋 I make games and illustrate covers for middle-grade fiction! I designed Tesseract and am always tinkering with too many prototypes. I'll be posting mostly about games here! You can find the rest of my work on my website: www.jamesfirnhaber.com

I am so thrilled to finally be able to back this game. The history of the courts (and the legal system generally) is a criminally under-representing subject in games and is worth your attention. www.kickstarter.com/projects/for...

@bitewinggames.bsky.social is always a blast to work with - they go the extra mile for great design and quality components, just look at all these fantastic bits on SILOS! I also got to collaborate with my creative best bud and amazing illustrator @kwanchai.bsky.social on that one. ✨

One of my most recent projects was working on this trilogy of Reiner Knizia games for @bitewinggames.bsky.social, which is in its final hours on Kickstarter! ✨ It was a really neat challenge designing the game logos to feel like a set but still reflect the look and feel of each game’s art style.

Hello new friends, thank you for the follow! 🙂 I’m a graphic designer in the board game industry - I’ve worked on over 50 game titles including War Chest, Let's Go to Japan, Santa Monica, Zoo Vadis, Dice Miner, and Votes for Women. I particularly love the icon and logo design parts of the process!
