Excited to finally be able to talk about WRLD, my next game! Build the WRLD that will get you the most points for each environment by stacking, tilting, and moving cubes on a shared grid. Coming out later this year!

Love how the 60 gallon looks after a big water change.

Bad picture but it’s tough to take a pic of your leg. This one is by Cory at Portal. Mind games!

Got this little mimic yesterday. Named him Mr. Imposter Syndrome. By Ellie at Portal.

Didn’t expect to see all this spooky stuff at Level Up Games today!

Close to wrapping up Maco Joe, I think.

Flew out to Texas for a single ten hour tattoo session. I think it was worth it. By Shaun Flinn at Black Heart.

Day 1 of Gen Con is a wrap.

Slag Pile Annie is a new Haint in Vagrantsong: Encore. As a helpful ghost in a steel mill, steelworkers would talk to her, not knowing she was a ghost. In Encore, Annie needs your help preventing the furnace from getting too hungry.

At Gen Con, stop by booth #1129 to play!

Anyone have ghost stories from where they grew up? There was a hotel called the Henryville House in the Poconos that supposedly had 9 ghosts. It was eventually torn down.

This is the Dungarvon Whooper, one of the new Haints in Vagrantsong: Encore. As the story goes, the Whooper was a cook for lumberjacks, and was killed for his money belt. Now you can hear his whoops all across that forest.

Huge announcement! We're bringing Vagrantsong to Kickstarter! TWO new expansions, tons of new content, and plenty more ghost stories. This is what I've been working on for the past year or so - can't wait to share more. https://www.wyrd-games.net/news/2023/7/27/vagrantsong-is-heading-to-kickstarter

Time to explore brutal solar systems on a gothic monastery space ship. I can’t wait.

My left arm sleeve is really coming together. Next appointment isn’t until mid September. I’m flying out to Texas next month to get a leg piece from a high school friend I haven’t seen in a really long time, though, and am ridiculously excited for that one.

The fish are “neon blue eyed rainbow fish” but there are probably enough shrimp of varying colors in there to make a rainbow. :)

Most recent pic of my rainbow fish tank.

And now a little about what I do to pay the bills: I make tabletop board games. My most recent is Vagrantsong, a co-op boss battler about hobos on a ghost train. Seeing it on a store shelf still makes me giddy.
