If it was just Imogen Heap, I could still take Imogens seriously. But add in Imogen Poots and it’s like, you godda be kidding me 🚬🫩

I can't stop laughing at this MtGA draft pod where several packs are backed up behind someone with the Fblthp avatar. I'm just imagining that it's actual Fblthp and they're frantically trying to read every card and make their choices before time runs out.

Hey game people! Can you recommend some content/resources that would help get a 12-year-old into board game design?

One of the best part of making a #WheelofTime game is that it led to the generation of a ton of great art that the whole WoT fandom. War of the Dragon is live on Kickstarter NOW! 😍

ALERT: Mattel has been pushing game designers to submit pitches using their My Mattel Ideas portal, even if designers are in discussions with Mattel people directly. The portal forces you to commit to a royalty cap of 1.5% plus a 10% deduction to net sales - effectively 1.35%.

I’m always a little disappointed when the clerk checks my receipt on my way out of Costco. All I really want is for them to check every item and then praise me for being a good honest boy when they see I haven’t tried to steal anything. Is that too much to ask? 🥺

The single most clear economic indicator of a recession is when the Money Tree is on sale for more than 50% off. (But seriously though y’all hold on to your butts).

I caught the early live streaming of #TheWheelofTime S3E1 and loved it. The editing and storytelling feel like they've leveled up, and the performances and visuals are as stunning as always. Can't wait to see more on Thursday! #WotSkies

I’ve talked to a lot of people this week that really need to hear this game-making advice: If you don’t understand how a certain game has sold so well, it means that game (or product) has a lesson to teach you. You won’t be able to learn that lesson unless you’re willing to reinvent what you know.

@mihealsick.bsky.social and I make bibimbap for valentines every year since our first valentines day in 2016, and this is our first as a married couple 🥰 ... we may be married but I am not sharing my grape soju

a bowl of bibimbap containing rice, marinated ribeye, bean sprouts, kimchi carrot, marinated king oyster mushroom, spinach, spicy cucumber (of which I forgot to add to my bowl), kimchi radish, egg, and danmuji

A big part of why I want to see more diversity in game design—and really in any creative field—is because different people create differently. The more new ideas exist in a space, the more I can absorb and evolve my own craft. Games were worse when almost all the people making them looked like me.

A Place For All My Books was definitely the smoothest project I've ever worked on. It went from concept to contract in 5 months, then from contract to launch in less than a year. If you're curious about what that journey was like, check it out in this new designer diary!

Friedemann Friese's new(ish) trick-taker is a weird case study that's making me rethink some of my long-standing predispositions in design. When I play Fishing, I have no idea how I'm doing, and I don't know whether I should be winning or losing tricks... but it's still COMPELLING #gamedesign

Hey y’all, my new codesign with @alexcutler.bsky.social launched on Kickstarter today and it’s a love letter to introverts everywhere. This is a fun game from a fantastic team and I think it’s going to worm its way onto a lot of shelves ❤️
