Illustration continues for Your Move Hero, our up-and-coming two to four player dungeon racer. #boardgame #gamedesign #indie

Well, it's official, I'm taking my first crack at illustrating a board game as well as designing it. Your Move Hero is a two to four player dungeon racer, and if you get hit by a trap or a monster, you have to go back to the beginning. #indie #boardgame #gamedesign #gameillustration

Seriously, if you've never been to Unpub Festival in Baltimore, it is where game designers go! This is Saturday night and you can see all the different play testing tables going on. Thanks Unpub! #boardgame #playtesting #gamedesign #gamedev

Gotcha

What is a white box sample if you don't mind me asking?

Go ahead... ask me about Your Move Hero, Nightmare of the Golden Horseshoe, or Actually Play! Also, would anyone want to playtest these games online? #boardgame #gaming #indiegames

Check out the final illustrations for the vampire player characters in Thirst, our 2 to 4 player competitive vampire city dominion board game. Left to right is Zaslov, Yumei, Renault, and Gabriella. #indie #vampire #boardgame

Hedgehog Hop by @fightinabox.bsky.social is a cute competitive dancing hedgehog board game for 2+ players!

An update for Thirst, and announcing updated playtesting for Unpub Festival (Nightmare of the Golden Horseshoe, Actual Play, and Your Move Hero).

I recently had some down time over the holidays and I was able to play both Dispatch and Split Fiction. They are great and I understand why they were nominated for GOTY awards! I HIGHLY SUGGEST CHECKING THESE FANTASTIC GAMES OUT!

We're only 8 days into #2026 so keep shining and protecting your glow!

This trend, and as 2025 comes to a close, it has me all nostalgic... #happyhollidays #seasonsgreetings #remember

South of Midnight is a fantastic game, and Hazel is to Weavers as Buffy (vamp slayer) is to Hunters! #videogames #southofmidnight #southerngothic

Thanks @fourhorsemencomics.bsky.social and MonRivet Games for making it a great 2025, and looking forward to an even better 2026! #gamedesign #playtesting #gamedev
