4. Kill your Ego. Kill your Ego. Kill your Ego.
Love your work, Talk about your Shit, but Kill your Ego. Ask other people what they're working on and listen. If something sounds cool, try it out if you have the time. Or follow up later. We all get stronger together.

If I have any advice or thoughts for myself (or others) who want to do an event like this in the future:
1. Kill your Ego. Be open to all feedback, note it, and move along.
2. If things break, that's an opportunity to fix it.
3. RPGs are hard to playtest, create small slices that sing if you can

Absolutely stellar experience that has really set me on a path to success (Complete Fun Games, eventually). I absolutely want to do this again next year, and I'll be on the lookout for other gamedev and playtest opportunities!

Everyone I had playtest both Juice! and Go! My Creations! was an absolute fountain of cool and interesting feedback, and my games transformed in real time from Thursday to Saturday. Even folks who didn't have the best time with my rules still thanked me for showing off my game. Blunt, but Kind.

As they told us in the Welcome to Unpub panel "you may be blunt, but you absolutely must be kind."

Home from #unpub Festival 2026! This was my first year, and I was completely unsure what to expect. What I got was an absolutely welcoming and funloving environment with people who love making and playing games in equal measure.

At this point in my life, I basically consider Tom Bombadil to be a local god of a place. The dude's essentially like a particularly powerful and ancient kami.

More seriously, really enjoying the multihour Bombadil talk in the latest Shelved by Genre episode. Really eye-opening to know that even contemporary readers of Tolkien had the absolute incandescent fury over the jolly old fellow.

Dan Schkade's run on Flash Gordon is something that continues to bring me joy.
Four panels a day of uncomplicated, pulpy, science fiction joy, drawn with some of the crispest care and attention and moving at a brisk pace of "one awesome thing definitely happens by Saturday". It's great. Go read.

#unpub you know you want this Juice! Iβll be in the ballroom from 10-2pm testing my speed poker/solitaire. Race against time and burn like a shooting star crashing through a window. Table N5 on the far side

Had to wake up Kinda Early today to make sure I got back to #unpub on time for my morning block, so of course my body decided I needed to be up Double Early. At least it gave me time to stretch out lmao

Oh huh, Solasta 2 came out in early access. I enjoyed the first game pretty well, but I wonder how folks will receive it in a world that contains Baldur's Gate 3.

I have run this thing on three occasions (once yesterday and twice today) and itβs morphed drastically for the better each time. I am planning for custom artwork decks and players now which is a sentence I would never in a million years have said before today
