Haven't posted in a while, but I have been busy making some major updates to how the cards are presented and better iconography to help with clarity.

Just finished updates and the next prototype will be here soon! I will also be at Origins this year as well, I'll make a post with details soon!
Going to #originsgamefair this year? Playtest the newest version of Cretaceous in the Unpub room! Friday 6/20 and Saturday 6/21 from 2:30 - 6:30pm.

Emergency paleontological salvage work begins at the forthcoming electric substationsite at St George Dinosaur Discovery Site /Washington County, UT. Need power equipment. Unique urban site. 2nd most significant dino tracksite in NA at risk of losing most basal Jurassic bonebed in North America.

Fun fact, when designing the art for my board game, I took some patterns from some of my favorite dino toys I had as a kid.

Had a blast playing testing my game Cretaceous at Pax Unplugged. Thanks to all that helped test or just swing by to check out the game!

Remember - there is TONS of great free and affordable art from real human artists out there. Game makers (big or small) do NOT need to use environment-killing theft-based generative AI "art" to make their games a reality.
I'm putting together a Starter Pack of Stock Art artists focusing on TTRPGs.
