I might actually consider bringing this game into production now and sell it physically, instead of only as digital 3D printable files! πŸ™

Thankful for all the friends and other makers who visited this weekend during Assembly Required: Asheville Designer Toy Expo. All the feedback and play testing on my Dynamod Dungeon Dive board game, has given me great directions forward.

After quite a few revisions, the rules of my 3D printed board game Dynamod Dungeon Dive are close to finished, still coming out to one page! The intent is for this game to be teachable in a few minutes while offering a great dungeon crawler experience to anyone without any book-keeping!

First draft of the final rules for Dynamod Dungeon Dive, the 3D printed cooperative randomized dungeon crawler I'll introduce at Assembly Required: Asheville Designer Toy Expo.
It all comfortably fits on one page! 🀟🀩

In the next two weeks, leading up to Assembly Required: Asheville Designer Toy Expo I'll detail more of the gameplay and the individual game pieces. Stay tuned!

Instead of being just dungeon tiles, it's a full blown board game and called Dynamod Dungeon Dive. It's a roguelike 3D-printed randomized dungeon crawler that can be picked up by anyone in minutes.

Here's a sneak peek of the evolution of Dynamod Games. I've been working on this for almost two years with some breaks in between.

I'm giving a lecture in March about #MPE at the Sigal Music Museum. It's way too soon to start promoting this, but I thought I'd already mention it anyway! 😁

We participated in a lamp making workshop a couple of weeks ago and finished our own Turkish mosaic lamps yesterday! This was a lot of fun and very rewarding! 🀩

bld - pure Java build tool bld is a new build system that allows you to write your build logic in pure Java, significantly reducing the cognitive load and making it easier to reason about your build.

For the last two years, we've been working on a new build tool for #Java, called #bld. It has now been added as one of the standard options to generate snippets in #Maven Central, the most popular repository of Java packages. Yay! πŸ₯³

We were a bat and werewolf over the weekend. We howled at the moon with other street creatures and lost a bunch of nails! 😁
