Do you ever design a way for your kids to play your games that aren't designed for kids? Greya was interested in my Mint Mechs game and I helped her design her own - super OP -characters and weapons. She played 6 games in a row and won consistently and "fairly" on the 3rd or 4th turn each game!

As a game designer and self-publisher, all the “firsts” are really special. Today I celebrate making my first top 10 of a year list, as Super Snipers was Ruby’s #6 and Violet’s #1! youtu.be/uOLxjfzSwE8?...

Mint Mechs playtest last night. I killed A LOT of darlings to get here, but it only sweetened the magic of the game- which revolves around drafting dice to set up big damage combos. Super happy with where this is at and where it’s headed! #mintmechs #minttingames #boardgamedesigner

Instagram is probably tired of me posting essentially the same gameplay pic and raving about this game every few days. So: Bluesky, this is Helionox: Chronicles, and it is absolutely incredible.

This morning I've been updating my website and putting together some pitches. Like this one for Profiteer Rails. It needs a publisher - do you know anyone looking for a unique spin on cube-rail games?! 🎲✂️

Solid playtest of Mint Mechs today. Was looking to get the action going more quickly and added a triggered action to placing a drafted die in addition to the bigger action (and the ability to chain multiple sequentially) when pulling them off. Excited for this one!
