Please tell me this is a game that I can play RIGHT NOW!? Or is this still something being worked on? Anywhere I can read more? It sounds incredible.

Does the support email for @itch.io just... not work? On Friday it will have been an entire month since I reached out regarding a copyright infringement issue. 🚨

I simply don't know if I missed the hypnodrone sweatshirt the first time, or if it's one of the new ones, but I've picked it up now! Glad to finally throw some money behind one of my favorite games of all time.

The Fog (1980) has some fans, but it was tepidly received in its day, even for a John Carpenter joint. But, we're really fixing The Fog (2005), an unmitigated disaster of a remake with a 4% on Rotten Tomatoes. We played the brilliant Ten Candles by @stephendewey.bsky.social!
the cover for Ten Candles. It has a group of survivors with flashlights standing at the mouth of an alley in a dark city. Large reptilian monsters are descending on the survivors.The poster for The Gof, which has a scary face made of Fog behind two generic teenagers. There are dark figures behind them in the fog.

Just totally stoked to have the Ten Candles tea light sets mentioned on Buzzfeed's "If You’re Tired Of Playing 'Never Have I Ever,' Check Out These 27 Party Games" list. Have I made it?

I’m about to start making gougères for my former grad students for our game of TO SERVE HER WINTRY HUNGER by @stephendewey.bsky.social and I’m kinda pumped.

Does it feel like someone who doesn't have a lot of ability to play board games beyond base TtR would be able to still engage and have fun? Or is it maybe a bit too complex at times?

Stephen Dewey🕯️ @stephendewey.bsky.social · 28/12/2025
How is the legacy game? Considering getting it to play with the folks. Also how is the difficulty in comp to standard TtR?

I couldn't find the offending post (probably good for me). Appreciate the support though! In their defense I got zero awards, so double would have been nothing! 🤣

I like hosting events and I increasingly wonder if indie ttrpg designers at PAX Unplugged might enjoy a little get together one of the nights, or if they all just want to go to bed at 6pm like I do.

If my writing document doesn't look like a game rulebook I just tend to get less excited writing. Design is weird.

Can we save up tokens between calls? And if so, do we unlock a secret prize wheel?

Blue Prince is the sort of game that makes me want to design another video game. Go play it.
