Pinned
I'm realizing I never explained the game I'm working on - so I pinned a general overview of Florafiora to my profile. 🍃
What is Florafiora? It's my storytelling card game!
It's a no-prep, one-shot generator where all 4 players get a turn as the Storyteller (gm).
Create a backstory you all share, then explore the botanical kingdoms of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.
More info about the game continued- 🧵
Game folks who are following me - do you have any shipping wisdom?
Genuinely, how are people running online shops figuring out how to charge for international shipping lately?

I still have some copies of Florafiora after the Indie Games Night Market!
I’ll be at booth 3819 on the expo floor.
Also check out @zephyrworkshop.bsky.social’s cool robot game.

Indie Games Market last night was a rousing success!!!!

WOW. I’m so impressed by all of the vendors organization and skill.

I’m sure we’ll be able together get stats from the PAX team, but this year definitely felt way bigger 🧵 🎲✂️

In classic indie market fashion, it was such a whirlwind I had no time to take pictures or make a post - but thank you so much to those who took the time to visit me!
The Indie Games Night Market was such a wonderful opportunity to present my first game. Very, very grateful.

I'll be releasing a small run of A Wizardologist Most Hexasperated, a 5-minute social deduction game for 3-18 players, at the Indie Games Night Market this Saturday night at PAX Unplugged. 100% of the price of each copy sold will go to the Trans Youth Emergency Project. (1/3) #IGNM #PAXUnplugged

As I wrap up production on copies of Fold & Fly! I was reminded of why I wanted to sell a game at the Indie Games Night Market. Why I'm bothering to go through all this trouble for such a silly game. 🌈🛫

Gil started Informal Ferret Games (instead of Formal Ferret) so he asked me to illustrate a lil hoodie on top of his previous logo.

ICYMI, I'll be selling Grunt Work & Flip Stack Burger Shack next week at the Indie Games Night Market @ PAXU. Making indie games really is a labor of love. I dyed all the wooden discs myself for the burger game and wrote a blog post about it: fantastic-factories.medium.com/prototyping-...
