Kingdom of Atlantis on Kickstarter, please share. It’s a zero luck roll and write game, uses dice placement (you choose values) and chess moves to gain control of spaces. I hope you all get a chance to play it, there really isn’t anything else like it #BoardGames www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben...
Kingdom of Atlantis
Chess moves take the stage in this game of action selection and writing for 1-4 players. Control the oceans!

We’re getting copies of Houdini’s Last Act ready for #IndieGamesNightMarket at #PAXUnplugged next weekend and thought we’d share some insights into what we’re doing to pull off (what turned out to be) a pretty ambitious production! 🧵

So if a domino game that plays like a modern board game and a traditional one at the same time, I hope you’ll try it, and maybe even share it with someone else! :)

Looking for board/card game artist recommendations for a small card game with a fairly high dependence on unique and catchy art!
Subject is kid versions of folk monsters and kids trying to catch them with candy
Preferred style is cute and cartoonish.
Thanks!

However, for games and design and ethos, that's probably where GYBE slots in the most for me. Do what you want the way that you want despite viability, despite the complex, despite the industry. Create unabashedly how you create.
I saw them back in '06 or so. It was the loudest show I ever went to.
