Had a great experience with attendees playing Community Park at @bostonfig.bsky.social on Sunday! The players enjoyed the game, and it generated a little crowd of interested folks! Gonna pitch to publishers beginning in January.

Also had a fantastic time @bostonfig.bsky.social today! It's been a few years since I've been able to go to a games festival in-person so it was so lovely trying out new games and seeing indie developers. The space & organization was welcoming and comfy, really looking forward to next year!
