I put down some thoughts about game design, what it’s good for, and what it isn’t good for in this zine!

Plus, a short guide to help get you started making a game if you’ve never done that before: gregisonthego.itch.io/rulebooks-fo...

Headed to the terrace level with Keep the Faith till 4ish. Hit me up if you want to play!
A faith of holy stoners grapples with its commitment to altered states as the world modernizes around them. Will they withdraw to the wilderness or take political power to shape society in their image? (Demoing Keep the Faith this morning before the expo hall opened).

Great postmortem thread! I had to bounce before the team pic but I’m so honored to have been selected and I had a great time talked disaster preparedness and radical politics with folks
Indie Games Market last night was a rousing success!!!!

WOW. I’m so impressed by all of the vendors organization and skill.

I’m sure we’ll be able together get stats from the PAX team, but this year definitely felt way bigger 🧵 🎲✂️

The game is also live on itch! You can buy it now! (in PNP digital form) here: gregisonthego.itch.io/resilience

✨ Reminder!! ✨

Indie Games Night Market is tonight @ 7pm!!

When the Expo Hall closes, come down to Hall C to buy the freshest indie games!!

“More even than last year, these games seem like they’re pushing boundaries. They capture the spirit of what it means to be ‘indie.‘“ @danthurot.bsky.social
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!

Here’s a thread of all the incredible coverage of IGNM 2025: 🧵 🎲✂️

HU student-designed games are back on @unpub.org tables today from 10AM-4PM! #PAXU #🎲✂️ The students had a great day of testing yesterday and are back at it again. See alt text for each game's pitch and when it will be on the table.

Good morning PAXU! I’ll return to repping my students’ games shortly, but I wanted to show a little beer-and-pretzels negotiation & area control game I’ve got with me.

Shared incentivizes, simple rules, and a map that uses the negative space on the table.

Find me today to try it!

Spent two hours strolling the streets of Philadelphia last night with the students. Korean-style corndogs for dinner 1, tacos for dinner 2, and a visit to both entrances of PAXU (I took us to the wrong door for will-call).

Look for us in the unpub room at the opening bell (10AM)...

The train is rolling out of the station. This is about to become an obnoxiously pro-Philadelphia account.

Yo dev I heard you like platforms so I put a platform inside your platform so you can pay a fee while you're paying fees

Central PA folks take note
Hey, does anyone need a magfest ticket? Some things came up and unfortunately I can't make it

Very excited to bring four student game designers to PAX Unplugged! #PAXU We'll be in the @unpub.org room in shifts. Look for a chaotic deduction game about ghosts (pictured), an asymmetric game about rats & the human who hunts them, an Uno-inspired cyberpunk shedding game, and a co-op heist game!

I need "Stats are down but he played great" to make it into the lexicon.

Gotta bring the agitprop to the #IGNM! 🏴 🔥I’ll have copies of my zine about making games, plus three different stickers with critical, political messages for our time. #PAXU

HUGE thanks to @marcelineleiman.bsky.social for encouraging me to get stickers and to oliviasy.design for doing the designs.

With PAXU this weekend, I once again come to you with a desperate plea:

Just go to whatever pizza place is nearest to you.
You do not need to go to Cheesesteak Vegas.
You do not need to wait in line outside at Angelos.

Any pizza place will serve you a perfectly serviceable cheesesteak.

I beg you.
