I KNOW you all can't get enough Curling during this Olympics.

So how about having your own game at home, whenever you want, right on your table? With magic! And cute animal companions! @asmadigames.bsky.social

Late pre-orders are now open for Mystic Curling Club!

Now, you too can show "lets go!" after making a shot, in the comfort of your own home and game night!

Hockey is the only major sport where it's a FACT that your average dedicated fan would make a better General Manager than almost every one employed in the NHL.

I'm deadass.

Goodnight, sweet prince.
Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

Chainsaw Man movie was really good, complete with yet another banger ending song with Utada Hikaru.

Fantastic video by Pam Walls on the increasing use of AI in board games, and the need (more than ever) to support artists, illustrators and graphic designers in the industry.

Chess Joker has launched!

Join in now at: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/a...

I'm so excited to have two cool new games to share with everyone at the end of the year. Curling and Chess are both games I've loved for a long time, and it's fun to put a unique spin on each of them.

I don't know when they switched the title/intro screen soundtrack back to the OG Destiny 1 tracks but man that hit me RIGHT in the feels.

So good to be back home.

PAX Unplugged @asmadigames.bsky.social is wrapped! Great show. Absolutely exhausted and looking forward to vacation.

I assure you that what I lacked in pictures taken, we made up for in dumplings eaten.

We've been taking some fancy product shots, Chess Joker is really shaping up! Very excited to be showing this off at #PAX Unplugged next week.

Chess Joker is Carl Chudyk's latest - the great game of chess with lots of interesting cards. No more memorized board positions! Tactics rule the day.

I also had NO CLUE, as a customer/gamer & tangentially linked to the industry.

For executive leadership to make financially catastrophic decisions based on "let's make a new, worse answer to a problem that's already been solved, because we're bigger and have more money" is indefensibly incompetent.
I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

Gamedev friends, this is more proof that we are not to blame for the current state of our industry.

These are the same executives that follow every trend blindly and ignorantly.

Aggressive MTX, everything is a live service, DRM that only punish paying players, NFTs, and now AI.

What a shitshow.

Good Curling, everyone! Over 500 people so far have decided that they want to curl with dice and make swooshy broom noises as they imagine sweeping them down a sheet of ice.

You, too, could be as cool as them, if you simply click the link below:

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

This is very, very cool for us and something we've wanted to be able to do for a long time!
For the first time ever, our games are for sale at a booth at Essen! Innovation Ultimate and base 4th edition, and new print runs of Mottainai and Meow, and of course the Good Puppers you deserve.
