In an effort to bring a little joy to the internet, here is a little dog who had a big party just for him (apparently).

Not pictured:
Crashing someone else’s breakfast event, and hiding under a table.

Hanging out in the kitchens.

Surprising people in the bathroom.

What exactly is being celebrated here? The designers and publisher of Terraforming Mars have repeatedly shown themselves to be anti-artistry and pro-bigotry. BGG has missed an opportunity to celebrate humanity and creativity rather than just products and popularity.

YIKES.

Upper Deck (Marvel Legendary) just announced a CCG using the Harry Potter license.

Fans of UD are rallying against this decision. Like the CGE situation last year, I’m asking for your help.

I’ve been getting a ton of interest across the internet about Heavenly Bodies!! 🌙✨

HB is not currently available outside of the 50 I made and sold at Indie Games Night Market 2025.

So if you’re a publisher… this one is still up for license! 😊
Heavenly Bodies (9)
“Heavenly Bodies was my favorite game from the Indie Games Night Market [2025]. From the first play, I knew it was going to end up on this list.”

“It just a beautiful example of taking a concept, something like Rummy, and turning it on its head… It is wonderful.”

As we roll into the end of December - if you catch Covid from your friends/family/coworkers and are uninsured or underinsured.

Please utilize the PAXCESS program through Pfizer. It will provide free Paxlovid until end of the day December 31st, 2025. Then the program is done.
