Y'all. Blue Prince. It's a masterpiece. I've now had FOUR jaw-dropping moments of realization, and I don't even think I'm halfway through. The puzzles are so well designed and subtly hidden. store.steampowered.com/app/1569580/...

Uh oh. There goes the rest of my free time. Congratulation @matthewdunstan.bsky.social !!

I'm not at GAMA. Please give me cool stories. FOMO'ing something hard.

Hey all! I'd like to play more Board Game Arena with y'all. My screen name there is Zangzabar.

In Daybreak, apparently it's possible to achieve drawdown in round 2 thanks to the Global Efficiency standards and some lucky draws! @mattleacock.bsky.social during playtesting, I'm curious if anyone found a combo that triggers drawdown in round 1?

Hi! I'm Ian. I have been working in the board game industry for over 10 years. Would love to connect! Note: Bluesky for me is a positive place. If your only posts and reposts are political, you will be blocked.

The current state of Facebook, in a nutshell. I block EVERY page that is "suggested" to me to follow. This continued for two more full scrolls, with none of my -actually- followed pages and friends.

This is next up for us!

Just played Firewatch for the first time. A game hasn't resonated with me in a while quite like that. @richsommer.pizza , your voice acting was phenomenal. I could feel the emotion of Henry's situation come through in such a subtle way.

Cool thing we're working on. Coming to Kickstarter in 2025.

If you're a fan of roguelikes and have Marvel Champions, I created an Ascension path similar to Slay the Spire's. I wasn't happy with the "more encounters please" method of difficulty scaling that Fantasy Flight recommended, so I came up with some neat stuff! drive.google.com/drive/folder...
