Hey aspiring pro creatives:
I’ve been making games for 20+ years and still have crushing impostor syndrome.
I assume my successes are pure luck and quietly agree with every critical jab calling me an overrated hack.
You’re not alone. The fear never disappears.
That’s okay

Need some time away from the family over Christmas? Read my latest: “GameTek #12: Generation P”, a deep dive into incorporating Procedural Generation into tabletop games.

I haven't checked with the publisher, but I think it's fair to say that these Yogi cards will never be printed. :-P

Inspired by the latest @FunProblemsPod (where AJ suggests a card asking you to run a marathon would make it a very different game).

Hey y'all - this is Nathan who is sneaking in here while on paternity leave to let you all know that on Nov 17th my favorite game we've ever published comes out :)
That Time You Killed me is *special*. Don't miss it.

I’m hoping that more people make the distinction between these two things because disabled folk and the people who love and support them will often look for the term “accessible” when making decisions about what to try or buy. 2/2

I’m not only a game designer, I’m a clinical therapist who worked 15+ years in the developmental disability sector, so I distinguish between approachable (welcoming, inviting, easy to “get”) vs. accessible (usable by end consumer as intended/designed) when describing games 1/2

I'm so excited for this! We have so many fun things up our sleeves for this campaign 😉
We’re super excited to announce our next project: Robotopia!🤖
The Master Robot rules Robotopia with an iron fist - literally! Rebellion is brewing & the robot guilds are looking for a new leader. Do you have what it takes to run the factory?
Coming to Kickstarter Nov. 16th! 🎉
