You may not think a dice chucking game about playing magic-infused Curling would be entertaining (or maybe you totally would), but with all the other big crowdfunding campaigns lately, don't ignore this @asmadigames.bsky.social title that just launched today.
Wonderfully addicting.

5 years ago today this comic came out, and for the next year or two it was deemed hyperbolic. Now it just feels prophetic.

Seems like one of those days where everyone decided to launch their crowdfunding game at the same time. Any ones specifically catch your attention?

It's been another great Indy outing seeing so many familiar faces, meeting new ones, and watching publisher and gamer alike so excited about games.
We'll keep posting pictures of the event over the next couple days. But for now, we have to get this guy home!

There's plenty of 2025 releases in store at Alley Cat Games, including the family-weight titles Timber Town and Station to Station, and 3 new tiny box games in Sept alone - such as the adorable Barbecubes here.
(Also, someone was hungry.)

I don't think people realize just HOW big the new kaiju are in @restorationgames.bsky.social upcoming Battle Monster game until it's seen in person.
Even the 3D printed prototype conveys the grand scale of the pending monster fights to come...

Good morning from Day 1 of Gen Con!
The morning started off a bit rainy so we found someone to warm things up for us.

Just a few hours before we roll out to hopefully see many of you at Gen Con! And we're excited to report our daughter's beloved canine companion is coming once more to keep Ryan company (and check out this year's games). If you see them, be sure to say hola to Hola!

GTG/DHM were two of the publishers who were gracious enough to work with us when we first got started all those years ago - and are wonderful people to boot.
This sucks.

Just putting it out there to all of our industry friends:
We know saying the current environment is stressful right now is an understatement, so if we can help in any way (a chat, a distraction, whatever) let us know. We've known many of you well for so many years, and so it's personal to us too.

Nothing like waking up and realizing that the people making your favorite and primary hobby will be financially kneecapped for no legitimate reason whatsoever.
Cool.

Historically, I haven't done much in the realm of solo gaming, but decided to wade in a little more today with the CYOA style card game FateFlip: Washed Ashore by #alleycatgames & #redcatgames.
Not a difficulty thing at all - but I may have a new record how for fast I've died in a game. ☠️

Ok, let's dig into opening Galactic Cruise, the debut title by @kinsonkeygames.bsky.social. GC is a sprawling space-faring Euro that's been building buzz since they started showing it off some 18 months ago. And after a very successful crowdfund, it's finally here. So let's dig in.
It's been a long time since we've done a pictorial unboxing...and we did just get this in from @kinsonkeygames.bsky.social...so let's do this!
Give us a few min and let's take a look!

Hey all! Just a quick check-in from us:
Sorry for the radio silence. The last couple months have been a bit unexpectedly rough for us and been keeping us from doing all the fun stuff.
With things finally on a modest uptick, looking forward to rejoining the community more regularly very soon!
