Towerbound is live, free, and playable in Browser. freezebeam.itch.io/towerbound It's a bite-sized Tower Building / Tower Defense Roguelite Deckbuilder. Take a 20 minute Silk Song break and see if you can finish a run.

I have been thinking about "friction" as in ease of use on a turn the thing on until actually playing timeframe. Enthusiasts can get past the friction but casual players find it exhausting. The things for kids are simplistic and have little friction to start hence their stickiness.

I played some Dune: Imperium over the holidays. It was very solid. It took 4 hours for a 4 player game and it is a great deck builder. #dune #duneimperium

Sounds interesting. Does the theme play heavily with your gameplay?

I play tested my game at PAX Unplugged in the Unpub room. I got really good feedback and I'm really close to locking in the final text. Check out Alien Entities! You play as a group of scientists and one player is a secret alien trying to mutate the crew.

Thanks! The gate has a little magnet on the inside so it stays open when you are ready to roll some dice.

Here is a picture of the dice towers that I made so far. Also made some dice trays. I put the Dungeons and Dragons logo on these but I'm going to make more generic ones soon. #CraftWednesday #D&D #DungeonsandDragons #Dicetower

Here is another dice tower that I made. I have a few people reach out asking about making these for Christmas presents so I'm going to do a few next month. I'm also thinking about putting these up on Kickstarter in January for Kickstarter make 100. #Kickstarter #dicetower

We had some locust wood in the shop and put it under a black light. It really does glow!
