Hi I’m Mike! I’m a layout artist, illustrator, and game designer! I’ve worked on a number of games and love doing it! I also can’t type anything without sounding really excited!
I didn’t say it, but I’ll repost it
@twopancakes.com's layout is beautiful and fully elevates the games they work on!
A new solo game by @carrion-comfort.com and @plusoneexp.bsky.social, 86. Had a bunch of prompts that was fun to find hand drawn looking images for the card backs:

1. Wri(Layout)ter
2. Everyone else

I like to sneak my own name in between first and last names on the cover when doing layout. Just gotta look hard.
what is the correct order of credits in an RPG, especially for covers??? my instinct is that it goes:
1. Writer
2. Editor
3. Graphic Designer
4. Illustrator
5. Producer
6. Other(?)

Let’s make it beat all of them.
GOBZ is either going to barely fund, or be my most successful campaign ever.

If you like really poorly hand drawn goblin art, and flicking dice, GOBZ is for you.

Launching a week from today.

Coming soon: GOBZ
A very silly dice game about even sillier goblins.

A bunch of projects launching for Kickstarter’s #ZineQuest this month are using Gen-AI. Even if the concept sounds appealing, please support designers with integrity first. If this sounds unreasonable, we shouldn’t be mutuals.

Emily makes wonderful mockups.
I’ve used them! They’re great! She’s got a whole bunch of them! Go get ‘em!
Zimo creators if you're making a booklet or trifold or perfect bound project this month (fight over if that is a zine?) then check out these digital mockups I've made so you can show off your projects!

Most of these are on sale until February 3rd!

I mean. He’s not wrong…
I cannot emphasize enough how much you should hire @nightjargames.bsky.social to do art for your game, and @twopancakes.com to do logo work/graphic design/layout.

They are the one-two punch for so many of my games, and I'm lucky for it.

Paolino does a wonderful job in this video breaking down some necessary prep when thinking about layout design. You (yes YOU) should take a watch, it's only 10 min!
If you're interested in visual design & layout for your TTRPGs @magnolienne.bsky.social recorded a development commentary for their awesome work on Outclaws, pictured below!

Wild that the four letter word he went with was NAME this time.
You know NAME REDACTED is going to look good because @nightjargames.bsky.social and @twopancakes.com are on the case
