Any other designers here get haters like this? I've gotten a new hater review bombing every single board game I've worked on once a month for the last 3 months. Is this just a sign that I've "made it" as a game designer? (all 3 of these are from pro ai weirdos)

Removing the weapon triangle is so lame, but giving the different weapons unique passives is a cool concept that just wasn't pushed far enough. For most of Fortunes Weave the unique passives feel more like "flavor" rather than actually giving the different weapons unique identities.

Guys I have like, a very important product release to announce at the end of this month. It's a standalone officially licensed collab character for Re;ACT - The Arts of War. But all I've been thinking about and tweeting about is Fire Emblem. Please help. 😭😭😭

I think Catania might be my favorite character just due to her voice acting. Absolutely sterling.

🐸 Pond from @brotherminggames.bsky.social is a super cute, and sometimes straight up brutal, area control deck-builder where you lead your faction of frogs and long fwoogs as they compete to control the many areas of the pond. Full overview & thoughts here: baptergames.substack.com/p/pond-revie...

With only a few more days until Fortunes Weave, wanted to also join in and share where I stand with all of the Fire Emblem games so far. I'm so so so excited to play FW. Everything about it so far looks so promising. I can't wait to become obsessed with it.

Oh thats nice, it's a BGG power user who left a 1 / 10 review on every single game I've ever designed because he's mad that I called out a publisher for using AI art. Haters be hating I guess.

Dan's reviews are always such a delight to read, and this was no exception! "Root but easier to learn. Root with a first teach that doesn’t feel like reading a syllabus. Root that ends with a bang rather than a last little trickle of crafting points." I love that it achieved exactly what I wanted~

Between its adorable critters and light asymmetric gameplay, Pond presents like an entry-level Root. But its more interesting details are the ways it departs from the formula, especially where its swingy cards and smart deck-building are concerned. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/09/08/p...

I don’t know what to make of Pond. Not as a board game — it isn’t that hard to get a handle on — but rather as an artifact of hyperreality, a signifier that has sprung into Pinocchio-li…

God the worst part is that they HAVE actual human commissioned art for the mr freeze knock off card (you can see it in the rulebook) and they just decided to use the AI generated version instead on the campaign page??? So we're just actively deciding the AI slop is "better"? Also lol hands again

Brother Ming 🔜 ANYC Booth 1951 @brotherminggames.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
Incredible philosophical questions being asked on gamefound. Have you considered the possibility that the slop churning machine might one day decide not to churn slop anymore?

Brother Ming 🔜 ANYC Booth 1951 @brotherminggames.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
Not that I expected any better from Gamefound but their whole "AI disclosure policy" is complete bs. These new gen ai Art games that pop up on gamefound don't actually disclose it like their new policy requires, and unlike Kickstarter you can't even report it Fuck Gamefound and fuck Awaken Realms

Did I really not put the title of the game down? It’s Pond, a vibrant and energetic area control brawler that’s easy to learn and fun to play. @brotherminggames.bsky.social has a real winner on their hands with this one.
