Speaking of Nathan Paoletta, there was an old post apocalypse Soviet robot game I kept not remembering the name of, so I had to ask on their discord.

I played it with some friends 13 years ago, luckily still had pics on my phone.

It’s cute and fun, and PWYW.

Well, here I am in #Perth #WesternAustralia and what better time to bring together some disparate hashtags by letting you know that there's some #CrowdFunding going on this month with some local #Boardgame designers for some #MicroGames

Here's some interesting WA games coming up in May on Kickstarter. https://gamefoundrywa.wordpress.com/2026/04/23/wa-made-games-in-kickstarter-micro-may-2026/ from https://gamefoundrywa.wordpress.com/games-made-in-wa/

Simply put, this is a #WareWare-like, with a seemingly dystopian storyline running through it. Protagonist Pandora has joined a competition where you enter your competitors' minds to beat them at various #MicroGames themed after their personalities.

The music is really catchy, and the pixel-art visuals are equal parts bizarre and cute.

The microgames have you following instructive prompts using the mouse, keyboard, or a combination of the two.

I threw together a little prototype for a cult-ish warioware: https://moonstorm-clerics.itch.io/terrorware-prototype

Thinking alot about #microgames and #minigames with this one. Is it a deceptively large scope, if you end up needing 100 unique minigames? Maybe it's flexible, b/c you can add as many as you want?

Feel free to poke at it, and let me know what you think!

For ages, I've struggled to find a nice way to display my one-card #microgames on #itchio, and I've experimented with all kinds of overlapped and splayed card images...

Until now! 🤩

Today, I am PROUD to present to you the first of my fancy flip card #animations! 😊 It took me DAYS to work out the #CSS and #HTML for the first one... the others? A few hours each! 😅

I hope to add similar animations to my other #cardgames and projects, so you can expect some magic coming soon to a page near you! 🥰

Hi, friends! I've got two big thinky updates to share with you.

✨ I'm adding a second card to each of my #TinyTokens games to better convey the setting and scenario. The first, for #SignalsFromTheDeep, will be up soon!

⚖️ I'm normalising my #microgames prices to a point I've found success with. Promos, ratings, comments... It's hard to get noticed or make a buck, but I want my games to be accessible for as many of you as I can. I think this will help with all that!

Thanks for your support. 🥰

My series on #ttrpg I have designed continues:

Bad Jokes is a pico-RPG about telling each other bad jokes and finding them extra hilarious. The game ends when a joke is considered actually funny. Play time: 5-15 minutes, 2-5 players.

Lots of talk about #MicroGames on my timeline this morning, so I decided to revisit a 13-card design of mine from... holy cow, *2011*??? (For reference, Love Letter debuted in 2012.)

It only ever had a single hand-drawn prototype, long since discarded, but my notes are complete enough to recreate it (I think). I am, however, disheartened by the final line of the rules:

"Play X rounds or until you realize this isn't a game." 😓​#GameDesign
