DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 16hRigged a copy of DUST for our photographer. Other than key ‘low spoiler’ cards, nearly everything was swapped out for blank cards so that there wouldn’t be mistakes or confusion in snapping those photos. But also, funny you know that, in the final pictures, those decks are basically empty. 081
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Finally have some product photography of Photo Club! 0101
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Looks like we just wrapped up dev on two insane games. I’d like to at least ruminate on both a little, as a treat. 2275

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Out of Stock (till November): TYPESET, Scream Park, Thing Thing Getting VERY low: Pacts, Signal, Inkwell To be honest, did not expect things to sell like they have, so that is a blessing. But also, I do answer a lot of emails ‘sorry’ since we don’t have more of everything on hand. 1190
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Got my first all-AI pitch I think? Sell sheet covered in AI art, email that has a shallow grasp of us and mixes a bunch of worthless lingo in AI structure (what is a ‘shared-market hook”?), and a generic business theme ‘perfectly aligned with DVC Games’ portfolio’. Even the rules seem generated. 3160
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 14/09/2026DVC monthly open game night. Starting with a game of Here Lies II, and I am a regular investigator! 0122
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Fiddling with Pacts: Legends cover. Always looks strange since magenta = foil, but it is coming together I think! 6312

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Having a vision statement means this part year of submissions were, by and large, fantastic. Some of the coolest stuff we have ever been pitched. docs.google.com/document/d/1... In that vein, I am experimenting with a new 'golden rule' that has come up lately, and I am contemplating if it fits. 050
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 07/09/2026This is really sweet! I was having a down week about design so this is a big cheer-up. 1131
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Love it when art comes together. Pretty much almost there with Thieves’ Cant, our improv game where two thieves communicate in code while the remaining players watch and try to catch them red-handed. 1120

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Spending time this morning thinking about how our games end up, sort of, in sets of three. Pods? Clutches? Broods? There is something to each set, even if it isn’t obvious, that holds them together. 1150

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 29/08/2026We took our 18 month old son to the beach today. The one I went to every summer since I was his age. I haven’t been back in almost 20 years. A lot of my childhood seems so small in retrospect. But not today. The ocean, the sandcastles, the lifeguard chair are the same size as I remember.  0181
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Photos I used to beat @bobbywest.bsky.social at Photo Club today. 1130
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Coolest part of today was finally getting my hands on Tales of Myth & Legend by @bobbywest.bsky.social et al. It’s enormous and ambitious and twisty and full of little things that are special to be discovered (reminds me of Zelda or Hollow Knight). But the teach was maybe 5 minutes long. Amazing. 2221

Comparisons are made to Azul. I get why. Add powers. Add a sneaky Abbott timer. Add cool art. Add some metal cubes. Put in a portable box. Ensure there’s a DVC-cloth-mat(tm). Inkwell. 6642
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Yay sample copies day. PPC of DUST is complete and all fits! MPC of Pacts, Scream Park, TYPESET reprints also good 1150
Reposted by DVC Games 🔜 PAXUWatch It Played @watchitplayed.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Been posting some games I’ve been playing, so I’d be remiss not to post this current go-to fav of the last year. Here Lies, by those creatives at @dvcgames.bsky.social. Being on either side of the table as the pieces start to come together (or don’t) is quite a treat. 1432

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 20/08/2026I am pickling my brain with tweaking all 72 examples on the cards in Photo Club. Ask obscure and specific design or business questions about anything DVC to entertain me, please. 340
DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Working on Here Lies II and Pacts: Legends at the same time is a different type of skill, and a different type of puzzle-y headache. It is one thing to set a standard, but making 'more' to build on the previous games is more about keeping that standard. It provides some unique challenges... 1100

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Just a few more pieces of art and then I get to make a nice copy of this oddball. Been trying to crack a very specific feeling in improv and deduction for YEARS and Jesse really found the missing pieces on this one. 6271

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 14/08/2026It was super cool to talk about DUST at Gen Con, and pre-orders are now open and everything. Got really used to saying 'an adventure without a rulebook' and I think that's a great little hook. If you want to learn more, try out the digital prelude at playdust.digital 5212

DVC Games 🔜 PAXU @dvcgames.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I think that the start of Act 1 (after tutorial) is about as far as I can go without spoiling too much of DUST. One last playthrough before production starts… still have a whole new strategy to try! 3260
