Here are the new games I ended up keeping. If you're looking for some for yourself I recommend checking these out.

🎲✂️ This one is coming together nicely. Working on some points balancing and how often the blind auction happens.

It's interesting because the points you can earn mid-game directly influence resource value in the end-game.

Kristen and I played pretty fast and loose. Score came out 111 to 129.

🎲✂️ related.

Will you be at Unpub Festival this weekend? I want to play your game!

Schedule some time with me to chat about your game's graphic design, designing with manufacturing in mind, and game design in general!

How it started vs. How it's going. (It's going well, by the way.)

🎲✂️ Finally using my Cricut to make a dual-layered board. Idk if I've got the patience for this.

Can we just take a second to acknowledge how much of a banger this song is?

I'll be at GAMA in a few weeks. Come and visit the Creator Pavilion where @pandagm.com will be consulting on manufacturing and production.

If you'd like to meet with me to discuss games, graphic design, or other industry topics, go ahead and use my scheduler below!

Lastly, here's how I adjusted the section about keeping your Removed dice and your supply of dice separate. And how your supply helps track things.

Well, today was productive.

😊😊😊 so excited to go through the updated version of my favorite deck builder.

And I won't confirm or deny whether Justin Gary said... of the games he has created, this is his favorite one to play.

You ever think of a better solution mid update? That was me with the pocket stickers. Gonna fix those tomorrow.

Didn't know how I'd feel about the new box colors but...🤩.

Box thickness isn't right yet, but that's likely a post-Pax update.

Pro-ish tip: use the box back as a Sell Sheet variant.

Mittens was an elephants for like... 2.4 seconds.

Time to get the new Pip It prototype finished. Just need to size and print the box, print and apply new pocket stickers.

Can't think of a better first video skeet. If you don't know, this is #LawrenceTheBand. Before you die, see one of their shows. Watch one of their YouTube acoustics. Support their incredible talent.

You're welcome.

Did I get mistaken for comedian on the cruise? Maybe. Did it happen five times? Yeah...

@panda8ngel.bsky.social and I are hanging out tomorrow! Come and learn about the toolkits offered by @pandagm.com.

Had to make a run. I give it a solid 7.

With feedback, I realized I was overthinking the horns/sax, & the words in general. The phrases won't actually be in the game. They're just the basis for the icons. So... thoughts on differentiating the vocals & guitars? 🎲✂️

Op 1 - high/low arrows
Op 2 - high/low sine waves
Op 3 - treble/bass clef

😀 I also finally got to play @davidmasnato.com's game, Tiers of Joy! Talk about wonderful! Table presence. Puzzly choices. Moments where you're praying your opponent doesn't take the cake layer you need. So good.
