It's live!! The game I designed, Honeypot, just launched on Kickstarter!
Two years of loving work. Would be grateful if you checked it out & considered backing!
It's an "I stack, you choose" game where you play as secret agent bears setting and avoding traps!

After a long hiatus the game I designed, Honeypot, is finally coming to Kickstarter next month!
Play as secret agent bears setting traps & avoiding traps in this "I stack, you choose" card game.
Would mean a lot to me if you checked it out!
Reposts welcomed.

Thank you!
Sounds like a good omen! Hope to see you there, and maybe we can catch a game.
I’ll be there as an attendee this year for more gaming potential—hope we can catch a game sometime!
We’re honored—thank you so much!!
Four photos - several of early Abandon All Artichokes board game prototype, vegetables with cartoon eyes. One of person with pink hair holding the published copy of Abandon All Artichokes in front of shelves of board games.
💼 I’m looking for work as a board game designer.
🌎 I’m open to in-person, hybrid or remote work.
⭐ I’ve previously worked at the Uzzle and made Abandon All Artichokes, Starry Night Sky, and other board games.

That’s an awesome idea!
Okay, I’ve put them up in the shop! I must stress that these are veeeeeery unlikely to get to y’all in time for Christmas. I’m actually still assembling these sets so consider this a sort of preorder. thecreepingmoon.store/products/fan...
A book with roadrunners and game rules, a run of cards J-Q-Q-A with a wooden token on the second queen, a larger wooden token engraved with “TEXAS”, and some smaller tokens atop two Jokers.
New free game download! Roadrunner is a climbing/card-shedding game for 3-5 players from our Texas book of new card games that is live on Kickstarter right now. Use speed tokens to boost card values, and aim to empty your hand of cards each round! gameswell.itch.io/roadrunner
@cardboardtime.bsky.social @boardgameghee.bsky.social looks like we’ll hopefully get some games in there! I’ll be there Saturday and Sunday and would love to meet up.
Booked my travel to OrcaCon! Excited to be going as an attendee this year for more games and such.
I enjoyed it as a lunch game with colleagues! It hit right at that weight with gamer friends but might be a bit much for non-gamers unless they want to learn or are okay ignoring what other people are doing on their turns. It does have a good theme to pull people in though.
These are awesome!
Took a true sick day today. Video games played:
- Slay the Spire
- Hades
- Super Mario Strikers
- Silksong
I’m right there with you—hope you recover well and have the best leftovers
Beautiful!
My notebook entry from the flight home looks shockingly similar to this. Hope it was successful, and it was great to meet you this weekend!
I accept!
I might be going as an attendee this year!
Sorry we missed you!! Hope you had a great con!
Thomas and Kelly holding a sign that says “Just launched on Kickstarter” in front of our Texas: Card Games Inspired by the Lone Star State book banner. The word “launched” is crossed out and replaced with “funded!”
We funded this weekend at PAX Unplugged!
It was awesome to see a bunch of folks there! I had a great time demoing our games new and old, sneaking in games with folks after the expo hall closed, and chatting with designers at the Indie Games Night Market.
It's almost time!!! #PAXUnplugged2025
Yeah, Kelly and I are running booth 4309!
I'll be there, hope to catch up and play a game!

We'll be at @officialpax.bsky.social in Philadelphia this weekend at Booth 4309—we are launching our Texas Kickstarter and showing off our PNW games!
Come say hi if you'll be at the show!
