🚫‼️ My quest for the softbang. In a previous post, I wrote about my desire for punctuation that expresses something between a period and an exclamation point. Punctuation that expresses mild, measured, realistic enthusiasm. Of course, there isn't one (not that I know of), so...

Two weeks of plays here. Some really cool stuff happening. What did you get to the table?

I think this is the perfect time of year to back a flip-and-write game of runes and potions. See review by @danthurot.bsky.social at spacebiff.com/2026/10/22/r... www.kickstarter.com/projects/sea...

Rune Rite from @thinkdeepplaylight.bsky.social playfully batters your brain with magical runes and @yoyoni.bsky.social's Chicago ’68 hits me square in the red cubes with total style. It’s all in service of good fun. 👇Episode's down there, Sparky #flipandwrite #kickstarter #podcast #boardgames

I need punctuation that lies somewhere between a period and an exclamation mark. Something between 🥱 and 🤩. Something that says, “Ah, yes; wonderful.” Less hollow, manufactured excitement. Maybe if the exclamation point was lying down, relaxing. “Rune Rite is now on Kickstarter•—“ #boardgames

I feel like I want to swear off exclamation points indefinitely.

Pick me.

On Board Games just notched Episode 600 ‼️ Erik Dewey chats up @podfathergaming.bsky.social about what's on his table and the upcoming Lord of the Rings: Circle of Conflict from @officedoggames.bsky.social @thinkdeepplaylight.bsky.social's Rune Rite reviewed as well, thanks for including us!

THIS JUST IN: SH&HB 100% confirmed* they will be producing a GLOWING BOX for their next release, Threed! Rumor** has it, they will accomplish this by incorporating PLUTONIUM into the packaging!

If you liked the Rune Rite hype spam, you're going to LOVE the Threed hype spam in early 2027. #BoardGames #IndieBoardGames

To shake off the brain-melting Kickstarter mania, I'm just kinda doin' stuff. Goofin' around, following my smile, whatever comes to mind. Apparently, my subconscious wants to design a few sets of ridiculous and eye-rending playing cards. I'm not sure where this is coming from, but I'm having fun. 🤷

So, like... when does the brain stop spinning? #crowdfunding

Defy Dull Fun is an anagram of Fully Funded. Thank you so much to everyone who pledged to bring Rune Rite to tables in need of fun. I am going to take a quick breather to celebrate. 😴🎉 Even more grateful than last time, Jason Katzwinkel #BoardGames #Kickstarter #IndieBoardGames 💙🎲

Not to be living Kickstarter algorithm; that is the law. Are we not men?

Just got in a new shipment of one of my best sellers…The Crossword Factory! A game that sells great but I’ve failed to do any real advertising or talking about on here…oops. So, if you wanna play a passive-aggressive crossword making game, check it out! www.alwaysawake.games/product/the-...

I couldn't decide if it was more childish to go the 6-7 route or the 69 route. Ultimately, I'm not a 69-joke kind of guy. #BoardGames #Kickstarter #IndieBoardGames

We're the top o' the pops! (Is this anything? I feel like this is something, I don't know.) 🤷 #BoardGames #kickstarter @kicktraq.bsky.social

If you had to pick between PACT and Rune Rite... don't. Figure out a way to get both. But if you HAD to pick... pick PACT. I would. #BoardGames #Kickstarter #IndieBoardGames

For whatever reason, my board game posts never do super well on here, but hey, we’re at the midway point of the Sands of Crime campaign and you should go back it! And you should tell other people about it! 📣

Time to start selecting materials for you fine folks. How many GSMs y’all want in this bad boy? I got all the best GSMs. I even have G/M²s ‘cause of how fancy I am and stuff. #boardgames

🔮✨ Win, lose or draw... I'm going to be proud of the work and effort leading up to the result. #boardgames #kickstarter #crowdfunding

It's really not fair that I am not you. It puts me at a distinct disadvantage.
