The Road to QAGS 3E, Part 10
Once SupaGenius was gone, we spent the rest of Origins comparing notes, but that didn’t really help us. We found out that Corporate Sugar Daddy had paid for the M-Force print run, but I don’t remember the excuse SuperGenius gave him for not using the money that was supposed to be in the bank account…
The Road to QAGS 3E, Part 9
We’d already been working on M-Force for a while before the GAMA show, but after we got back we kicked into high gear to make sure we could get the book out in time for Origins. M-Force, for those of you who don’t know, is our Monster Hunting game. It’s one of my favorite games…
The Road to QAGS3E, Part 8
We ended 2001 feeling pretty good about ourselves. We’d just released our first full-sized book, we had nationwide distribution, our con games were overflowing with players, and we beat Steve Jackson at TOON!. For 2002, we had even bigger plans, focused on two things: first, we’d go to the GAMA show in March. Then we’d…

Has Elvis Left the Building? (Elvismancer Preview)
I just posted an update to the Elvismancer Kickstarter. The plan was to include a writing sample, but the completely reasonable few paragraphs I originally meant to write combined with a throwaway line from an old Death Cookie article and became an 1800-word in-world article. Since that was way too long for a Kickstarter update,…
10 Fun Facts About The Hex Ficton
The Hex Ficton is the fictional setting where Hobomancer, M-Force, Weird Times at Charles Fort High, and numerous other games published by Hex Games take place. We often describe the Hex Ficton as a world that’s like our own, but vastly weirder. This list provides some insight into how weird it is. You can learn more at the Hex Ficton page.
The Hex Ficton on World Anvil
I’ve started a new World Anvil page for the Hex Ficton (where M-Force, Hobomancer, and many other Hex Games are set). It’s in the very early stages right now–just a few brief articles and some partial timelines with no real theming or branding–and not really ready to be shared publicly, but I wanted to give…
