He does it all solo. Design, publication, marketing, art direction. Four games in development. "Boardssey has helped me by giving me so many tools that make it possible to complete 'boilerplate' processes." @moonsagaws.bsky.social #boardgamedesign #tabletopgames #indiegames #gamedesign

But now that Boardssey lets you create sell sheets in just a few clicks www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZN_Z... we’re looking at what to tackle next... Some people are asking for an easier way to design prototype components. But I’m curious: what’s the pain point you hit when developing a board game? 🎲✂

What you see here is the result. What matters is that the game, sell sheet, catalog page, and pitch tracking all live in one system. That clarity changes how pitches are evaluated.

600+ creators built games on Boardssey in 2025. Most of them almost didn't. Ideas almost dropped. Projects abandoned. Moments of "maybe later" that became real. If you built last year, you know that feeling. If you didn't, you know the opposite one.
