the thing that confuses me the most about Tokyo is that ChocoZap is not a candy store but a 24 hr Gym.

It's just after midnight right now in Tokyo and I'm just about to go to bed, but Indie Games Night Market will be happening when I wake up in the morning, so this is my call-to-action for folks at PAX Unplugged to check it out tonight at 7pm in the Queue Hall!

Today was Tokyo Game Market.

I'm exhausted.

I'll post photos tomorrow of what I bought, as I start to figure out how to pack it all up to bring home.

today was pretty great. i took the train to Chofu, which is a neighborhood in the SW part of Tokyo. Shigeru Mizuki, famous for his Kitaro manga/anime spent a good part of his life in Chofu and the town has a lot of Kitaro stuff scattered around, including a playground and a tea shop/souvenir store.

Oh shoot, I didn't really post my travelogue for yesterday!

Started off at Nezu Shrine, which is a beautiful Shinto shrine a bit north of Ueno in Tokyo. I love an Inari shrine and walking through all those red torii.

feeling indebted to @marcelineleiman.bsky.social for being such a good hype person for IGNM. i’m more an ideas guy than a salesman/promoter, so it’s awesome to have folks with more of that bullhorn energy. much love to @danthurot.bsky.social and @boardgameanimal.bsky.social for ongoing coverage too!

Pax Unplugged is right around the corner!!

Looking back at all the IGNM coverage—I’m so proud and impressed at how much our community came together to promote these awesome indie works!

There’s a game for everyone in this lot!

I'm responsible for the artwork of many of the new games being sold at Tokyo Game Market this weekend.

every time i meet a shiba i both increase my desire to have one and confirm the knowledge that they're likely a very difficult pet

This morning I went to a buddhist temple in Shinjuku that is watched over by an 8 year old Shiba Inu named Subaru. When I got there he had just been taken for a walk, so I had to wait around for nearly an hour for him to come back - but it was worth it! He even came up to me and let me pet him.

Today I investigate three more indie games, all of which are ambitious and explorative of what games can accomplish. These are good'uns. spacebiff.com/2025/11/18/h...
Nebulae, Medusae… Crownae?

Reviews haven't come easily recently, thanks to real life kicking me in the balls repeatedly, but I'm back with another today. This is Leptioptery from @dnlnwmn.bsky.social , and it's a lot of fun. Find out why in my review, here - punchboard.co.uk/lepidoptery-... #BoardGameSky
Lepidoptery Review - Is a review better than word of moth?
For a game to succeed in a crowded market, it needs to stand on its own two feet. Butterflies have six feet, which is surely cheating, but it works.
