High Times - Teaser Trailer (VO Main Cast) YouTube video by Yangyang Mobile

No one asked, but in case you're curious btw:

My favorite demo I played at PAX East was definitely High Times. Absolutely LOVED this one.

Always happy to write for the cool folks over at @rpgsite.net 🔥🔥🔥

This was one of the more interesting demos I played at PAX East! Some definite shortcomings, yes, but a lot of potential here in a genre that has a hard time leaving Pokemon's large, looming shadow.

I'm working on a VERY LONG video right now (currently upwards of 6 hours) and it's currently more done than not!

Likewise!! Always happy to write for y'all 🔥🔥🔥

Thanks again for letting me!!!

Happy to have @redbardiscool.bsky.social on RPG Site again with this preview (and more!) from PAX East~

I'm pretty sure it's meant to be a desk mat, actually, but I don't care, I'm using it as a play mat

the people at the Pokemon/Gundam locals I go to won't know what hit em ...mostly because I don't think any of them have played Hundred Line, but doesn't matter lol

From left to right, top to bottom: Eito, Darumi, Hiruko, Gaku, Kako, Takumi, Ima, and Yagumu from Hundred Line, all in butler/maid attire

please look at this play mat I got at Anime Boston

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, if you were one of the people who didn't make it into the cookbook panel, don't worry: It was recorded! I've submitted this panel to 2 other cons, the latest of which is in August. If it makes it into these cons, I'll upload after the cons (if it doesn't, I'll upload it just, at some point?)

As always, Anime Boston was spectacular this year.

Thank you, to everyone who came out to see my panels, or just said hi to me!! And most of all: Thank you to the incredible con volunteers/staff, who make the con so fun year after year!!
