Okay, I did a quick solo playtest of Forged!. It's difficult to test solo, really, because the main drive of the game is brinksmanship. But it works. It might be too fiddly, but it works. I think. Unless it doesn't. Time to get it to the table.

Heyyo! If you're going to be at #PAXUnplugged, come find me on the exhibition floor at the Origami Whale Games booth where I'll be demonstrating my game, Match Hatchery!

Thanks! And, agreed. This was my comment on it yesterday.

Work in progress. This isn't exactly the vibe I'm going for overall, but it's shaping up. Lots of tweaks and nips and tucks will get it there eventually.

I haven't felt this good about a new design in a little while. Here's hopin'.

In Forged!, you play as an unscrupulous reprobate of a blacksmith. You sell mundane "treasures," passing them off as magical. How much money can you grift before the heat gets too hot?

A wonderful October for #boardgames.

If anybody wants to know what a 58-point game of Agricola looks like, have a gander. I will never, ever reach this score again.

Stylizing some game cards for a thing. I don't know if this is the correct path, but I'm having a good time doing it. I feel like it's going to be a very distinctive (pray, striking) design set.

I'm gettin' up to stuff. I think... maybe... I have a good idea. I don't know. We'll see.

I made it to Big Game Bash. Now is the part of the con where I haunt the perimeter and drum up the courage to engage.
