BATTLE SUIT ACES OUT NOW 🤖 @team.trinketstudios.com · 15h

have you played the new mecha card battler being called "a Gundam good time" (@escapistmag.bsky.social) yet?

Battle Suit Aces combines our love of mecha anime, Star Trek, and rich, heartfelt narrative into one big card-battling RPG with beautiful art. Available now on PC, PS5, and Switch!

Yan, Daciana, and Jaeger laugh with each other over a bowl of snacks at a table. Belmont looks on from the doorway.

Blue Crest, Felix's signature Relic Suit mech rests upright in the hangar.

A space station, grey with purple lights, floats among the stars.

Yan has a picture of Adolphus, a purple haired mystery, up on her computer screen. Daciana is behind her, looking over her shoulder.

Pulled an all nighter my Jr. year of college to write a theater history paper.

I didn't need to.

Just did it because I thought it was one of those things you were supposed to do.

Like, are you ok? 😏

I'm an unpopular old voice man with dogs who reads books out loud to make ends meet.

RIGHT?!

I just... kiddo - I got to see his wonderful goal from open play against Tigres in person. There is an amazing player there.

But I also saw that same run up for the pen in that game and never felt so afraid that the pen would go wrong.

he scored, good on him! But... 😑

I love me some David Martinez

HOWEVER

This year’s long stutter step run up for pens needs to be outlawed. Ridiculous.

This. 500 times this.

I got it to the table to run maybe, like.... Twice.

*But I still proceeded to buy all the books because my young mind thought this was ridiculous and amazing and I just wanted to know what was going on everywhere in RIFTS*
