This Queensland Games Festival wrap-up took 6 hours to write, so I hope it helps each game get at least 6 wishlists.

If you couldn't make it to the event yesterday, please have a read! Any reposts are greatly appreciated to increase local #indiegame visibility. 🙏

I want to share this Kickstarter campaign from my local board game bar & cafe.

Pause Menu is moving and bringing a space built for TTRPGs and tabletop games to Melbourne.

My partner runs her mini-painting events here each month so I really want to see them find a new space!

A huge thanks to everyone who joined us at the Xsolla Big Games Night BYOG Showcase at GCAP last Tuesday evening!

We saw over 20 ANZ indie games take over the Meet To Match area, and the vibes were electric!

Keep an eye on our socials for info on our next event!
Recently, we showcased the alpha prototype of Bones: Wandering Soul at our first ever industry event! A massive thank you to Indie BYOG and xSolla. It was a fantastic evening. Thanks to everyone that swung by to playtest and have a chat!
