Here is my potential army of cats! Let me know what you think. If you were buying an indie game that was part of a small batch run (25-40) would you be okay with PLA printed cat cubes. Or would you prefer plain wood cubes that I'll likely have to ship from China to keep the cost down. 🤔

Okay may have printed this one too small. Playing with the idea of 3d printed cat cubes instead of using wood cubes. Upside, they are cute. Downside, uses plastic.

It's fun when doing research means playing games.

My copy of Bonsai Diary came in. Can't wait to dig into it and grow my own !

One of my playtesters sent me this article this morning: www.pennlive.com/opinion/2026... It's very timely for my Harrisburg: The City Beautiful game. I'm going to have to rethink a few things possibly!

We are really excited about publishing Color Jam, designed by @stickydoodler.bsky.social and Joe Kell. It's a cozy, print-and-puzzle coloring game for one or for you and some friends. It's perfect for lazy summer evenings or for when you want a whisper of strategy in your coloring. 🏖️🖍️

Players at the unguided section at Unpub took photos of the game. Since I didn't take any, I'm glad I got these with the feedback form!

Had a good time at Unpub, the immediately had a week on vacation in Mexico. Need a few days to catch up on things and probably go through my notes.

It's been a busy few weeks. Here's me chilling with a lobby cat.

Had a full house at playtesting on Wednesday. It's so nice to see the community growing. I just wish there was more time in the day!

One of the things I like to do when designing a game is do way too much research into the subject.

Any of my friends going to Origins free on Thursday at 10 am. I need a few more folks to fill a slot of The Establishment so it can go off. tabletop.events/conventions/...

HBG Day has a really cool space you can rent if you want a private spot for your group. With 6 people, it'd be like $40 split. www.hbgalliance.org/store/p/over...

I'm a mean dragon. Roar.

Went a little overboard making components to play test Community Cats 😁

I can't stop buying plants. These are two new ones. A wandering dude and a Rex begonia

Picked up a solar RPG from Exeunt Press this past weekend. Excited to crack it open and hunt monsters.

Our security camera AI has identified this morning dove as a pet. I guess we have a new pet now.

If anyone likes solo resource management board games, I have a game that I am currently playtesting called Community Cats. It's very early in development, so I know there's a lot of balancing I have to fix. But it's available online and there's a feedback form: screentop.gg/@mandabean/C...

So I bought a used Blu-ray player. I'm excited to hit up the library tomorrow and see what series I can find. Looking to cancel some of our streaming services, so testing this out.

Join me on Wednesday for Break My Games playtesting at the Adventurer's Guild: www.eventbrite.com/e/break-my-g...

Got bored and started cutting out some print outs of cat icon samples..

Is it safe to remove the plastic from my windows or will we get hit with another winter? 🧐

I made an elephant confused by the fact he's holding a pineapple...

I went to post about the National Japanese American Memorial in D.C., which is beautiful but usually missed by tourists. It is a deeply staggering admission of guilt and a warning to future Americans. I went to link to the inscriptions and- Well, they took the site down. www.nps.gov/places/japan...

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

I made an elephant head.. his eye is a little droopy but you know. We don't all grow up perfect.

Well, it was going well. Got the English to retreat into the village but it wiped out 80% of my brigade. First time in command for real. I think it strategically was worth it as long as we can get the village.

I was never able to keep an air plant alive in this planter so I made some wool felt mushrooms
