Indie Games Market last night was a rousing success!!!!

WOW. I’m so impressed by all of the vendors organization and skill.

I’m sure we’ll be able together get stats from the PAX team, but this year definitely felt way bigger 🧵 🎲✂️

Privileged to be included. It felt like our first ever “Exclusive” video, I’m thrilled we could give these games rep in video form

And what an incredible first exclusive to have than to celebrate and promote such creativity, ingenuity, passion, and downright FUN

Remember folks

Indie Games Rock 🤘🏻
This is the first year we have ever had *video coverage* of our games prior to the market!!

Video is such an awesome medium for making and sharing ideas in a visual, accessible format.

We cannot be more indebted to @boardgameanimal.bsky.social for his work on this enormous video for this year!!

BREAKING: I'm starting up a new line of games that I'll be putting out on @thegamecrafter.bsky.social. Some will be reprints of older Formal Ferret Games, some of these will be expansions to existing games, and some are going to be brand new.

Of course, I'm calling it Informal Ferret Games.

Thanks for all the musical suggestions, the team didn't win (two got away safe) and we found the perfect 2016 song for the credits roll as the "devil" got continue his dark works. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlGB...

We're playing Delta Green tonight and since our scenario takes place in 2016, I like to tortured our players with terrible songs published in 2016 every time they walk into a store or a car radio comes on. Does anyone have some great suggestions? 😇

This is a feed of designers bringing their games to Indie Games Night Market at PAX Unplugged 2025 next week. Right now, it is chock full of folks cutting, printing, boxing, and otherwise willing their games to life.

New comic! We love when a game looks all warm and fuzzy on the outside… and secretly hides a terrifying combo engine inside. 😇 Crunchy gamers, A Wild Venture is your Trojan horse.⚙️

A friend is giving a lecture on game design and the importance of testing, may God have mercy on the student's souls. 🤣

War Stories is a gem, I don't think we ever felt as tense during any other Choose-your-own-Adventure game. You're constantly doubting NPCs intentions and your own decisions, because one wrong move could be fatal.

Congrats to Dave Neale and @djackthompson.bsky.social for winning the Summit Award!

We're a little sad we missed out on this game 😭 (it was already sold out when we got there)
Yotei is such a nice town builder with lovely wooden components. The currency is potatoes and there's hidden bidding with wooden boxes. Four paws up from Colin because there is a polar bear on one of the player screens!! #BoardGameBear

We just played a six round game of Koi-Koi and we might be a bit obsessed.

We started out laughing at all the terms in the rules but we got into it after one round. This push-your-luck game lets you sit with your overconfident decision for rounds, hoping your opponent doesn't get lucky.
