I think it's interesting that pre-transition I started making a war game about tracking how exhausted your soldiers are, pushing them until they eventually perish (still making it) and now I ravenously want to make a game about giving flowers to your friends and making bouquets.

Honestly, this is why I became friends with Xoe and she helped me realize my own trans identity. Her choice of self expression helped me down the path of finally enjoying being alive, and I don't mean that lightly. This is why representation and self expression is so important.

Ok top of being a trans pan mom, Xoe is also just a wonderful human being, and her story is extremely important

This hurts so much.

Had a great time over at the Building the Game podcast! Check it out!

I got a chance to playtest this game, and it's an absolute delightful combination of roll and move, "I cut, you choose", and rondel shenanigans!

I feel like the true power of a list is that it reminds you just how much you can get done in a short amount of time. At this rate, I should be able to playtest Scars of Aether again sooner than I had thought!

I don't think I'll ever doing anything as cool as making hollow stackable walls to put around my magic towers in #TTS

My boss, who hasn't played a #boardgame in a decade, pitched to me a game idea called "Clams Casino". He said he didn't know anything else about and I'm already planning on kickstarting it.

Is it scope creep, or is it fixing a problem? Can it be both? I'm trying to fix the end game for Scars of Aether, and the solutions I come up with inevitably add more systems. I just gutted some unnecessary mechanics and systems, so I might have room for something new...hmmm...

If you wanted to play a hex-based skirmish #boardgame, what form of map modularity is most interesting to you? A map that is.....

QUICKLY, LETS MAKE THIS CHILD THE BIGGEST GAME REVIEWER ON YOUTUBE

Realizing that a secondary mechanic in your #gamedesign is not only unnecessary, but it is actually harmful towards the overall design of the game is such a wild and freeing feeling.

I don't know who made the prompt for this artflow.ai, but this is phenomenal.
