Josh here. I design games after my kids go to bed. Single Combat - swordfight card game. Free Luna - co-op deckbuilder. Gaffle Dice - realtime dice game.

#FreeLuna took first place in the Heavy category of The Board Game Workshop Design Contest!

Surely there's a publisher looking for a co-op deckbuilder with a killer theme and tightly-integrated, innovative mechanics?

Board game design help needed: my daughter installed Linux on my laptop (she's on a mission), and now Tabletop Simulator is stuck in fullscreen mode. Alt+enter doesn't help. Any ideas, board game design twitter? #tabletopgames #boardgamedesign #gamedev #tabletopsimulator

@gamesandbourbon Such a great game.

... and on the final round, Senator Ruiz commandeered a shuttle, went to Terra, and convinced the government to recognize Luna's independence. On her return, she was named chancellor by acclamation.

In tonight's self-playtest of #FreeLuna, Terra had the resistance on their heels until the final round. Public Opinion dipped so low that recruiting got more expensive. A massive Peaceful Protest and plenty of media eventually inspired an uprising...

If you're interested in Free Luna, DM me! Or join the Free Luna discord, where I schedule playtests on Tabletop Simulator. Thanks for reading this thread! https://t.co/lvpYZ8jCD0

I am pitching Free Luna to publishers. It's a co-op deckbuilder for 1-4 players in which you lead a revolution on the Moon against the authoritarian forces of Earth. The theme and mechanics are tightly woven together, and playtesters have been loving it. A🧵on pitching a game.

[Josh | Free Luna | he/him @SingleCombatCG]

What's your advice on pitching? What has worked for you? What pitfalls are out there to avoid?

[Josh | Free Luna | he/him @SingleCombatCG]

@MuellerSheWrote We're still waiting for smoking gun evidence that connects Trump to Stone to extremists re the plan for 1/6 specifically, right? It must be out there, right?

[Josh | Free Luna | he/him @SingleCombatCG]

@n_quests I have to question your assumption, because my daughter asks me this question ALL THE TIME.
