Cover for the book Knockoff

NGL the graphic designers and illustrators put a lot of fucking love into this book

First and foremost I want to thank the team that’s already worked so hard to bring Absurdia to life. Full flowers in the thread below, but the game wouldn’t exist without @kayleerowena.com’s haunting artwork, @jonmerchant.bsky.social’s excellent graphic design, and Cindy Butor’s incisive editing.

A picture of Absurdia’s cover. The forefront is a suburban craftsman house. A wavy picket fence runs behind it, appearing as a transparent overlay through the structure. The windows are glowing bright purple. The front door is open, revealing a dozen purple eyes floating in an inky back void. The upper half of the house is falling apart in surreal fashion, with some pieces missing while others appear to be melting upward. Above the house, several shadowy silhouettes float alongside another purple window and other house ephemera. The backdrop is a reddish coral color, with three orange lines curving behind the house. A large orange crescent moon sits behind the house. The title “Absurdia” is written in a large font at the top, with “Quinn Majeski” in a smaller font in the bottom right.

An illustration of the Backalley from the Absurdia core book. A long alleyway stretches from the fore to back, framed on either side by several apartment buildings. The alley is filled with mundane and surreal ephemera: an overflowing garbage can, a street lamp, an open door, a hand reaching out from a hole in the ground, a pair of eyes looking out from a darkened window. In the distance at the end of the alley is a sliver of fuchsia sky with a full yellow moon. An unnaturally tall silhouette with wavy limbs and bright white eyes stands at the alley exit, looking towards the perspective of the viewer.

With the campaign successfully funding I want to recognize the amazing team helping to bring Absurdia to life!

Absurdia's incredible illustrations are by the inimitable @kayleerowena.com, who has done an masterful job of capturing the whimsy and terror of surreal suburbia

Puppets in High Places A cutthroat game for 1-2 mob bosses set in a noir Prohibition era.

So folks, I have made a second game! It's called Puppets in High Places, it's a 2p game in a fantastical Prohibition universe where you are mob bosses who get members of the high society under their thumbs.

And it just went live on KS!
