I didn't mind but she apologied each and every time it happened. chat was filled with hundreds of variations of "oop sowwie >_<!! xoxo" and "uaah! not again! orz" by the end of the night

Folks who are going to be at GDC! I will also be at GDC! Let's hang out and eat and talk about our art 💞

I don't have any open mentoring spots this year, but if any marginalizated folks are in need of urgent talking through of something, I'm always around.

The Bad Baby Lich Lords release party is this friday. If you are near Olympia you should stop by!

My print copy of Bad Baby Lich Lords arrived! Pretty wild to have a game I worked on exist in physical reality rather than a digital storefront.

Bad Baby Lich Lords is here and she's perfect.
It costs $30 which is only .18 for every version of the game we playtested over 3 years.
