A little teaser for a new project I've got coming out soon. I'm so excited about this game and can't wait to get it out for people to experience!

Watching the final few minutes of a Kickstarter campaign is my adult version of staring at the clock, waiting for Christmas morning to arrive. Come on, come on...

We're doing a thing... right now! Come join me, along with my friends @tfowers, @ryanlaukat, and @d20plusmodifier in our first-ever Co-Op Crossover. We're playing (and most likely failing at) a bunch of co-op video games. youtube.com/watch?v=Idlxyab8…

Tim's new campaign is live! I've played a bunch of PegLeg and can attest to its magic time-wasting powers! If you enjoy casual strategy games like Plants vs Zombies, you should definitely check it out.
I just launched a new boardgame AND videogame called PegLeg. Check it out here pegleggame.com
Last 24 (actually 23) hours to back @rwg1977 fantastic pins on Kickstarter. First stretch goal is unlocked (here's to hoping it's the Getaway Driver). Let's unlock a million more! kickstarter.com/projects/106…

I've been blessed with extremely friendly and supportive backers - but I know a few other creators who haven't been so lucky - so I know how important this issue is. Fantastic article from @camdon and @gnomestew gnomestew.com/kickstarter-ki…

Hardback was selected as a to the game of 2018 by both @PopMech and @SmithsonianMag I'll be the first to admit, I had no idea either of those fine publications had a top board game list... but it's still a great honour
