The @thegamaonline Horizons Fellowship programme is an amazing opportunity for under-represented folk in the tabletop industry to get a boost and get seen.
If you think you might qualify, head to the GAMA website and check it out.

The link isn't clickable on Instagram, sorry, but I wanted to include it anyway, in case you have trouble finding it.
Thanks again to our mentor, @smirkanddagger , the major sponsor, @chiptheorygames , and everyone else who helped make this a reality. We are very grateful for the experience and opportunities we received, and hope to see more diversity in the industry as a result!

Hey folks!
We have updated the options for the game box logo for Bubble Net (a simplified version will be used elsewhere).
Given the enthusiasm for the bubbles in my last post, I have asked Jovial Graphics & Games to come up with some more ideas that also align with the way humpback whales actually blow bubbles, and these are the three I like the best. These are still sketches as we decide which to develop.
Which is your favourite? How do you feel about the black and white bubbles, or the tails cutting into the words?

This is to celebrate all of you out there doing the mahi and getting seen, and all of you still working and showing up every day and waiting for your recognition - and those of you whose achievements don't hit the scale because our society only values certain things.
Let's celebrate our friends and their achievements!
Did you win an award? 🎉🎊🥳
Did you overcome a big challenge? 🥳🎉🎊
Did you create something? 🎉🥳🎊
Did you get out of bed? 🎊🎉🥳
I see you, I celebrate you - whatever the thing was that you did recently, take a moment to tell yourself that you did well. You deserve it.

So we were just live on Amanda Panda's stream talking about Bubble Net Board Game and it was also apparently on the front page of BGG.com?! I don't suppose anyone got a screenshot? 😱
Still testing negative, woo! George is doing OK. Looking forward to being with him again but we are doing the full 10 days for safety (recommended for high-risk folk)
Join us with Amanda Panda as we show off Bubble Net Board Game today!
It's currently on Kickstarter

We got home, so relieved and happy that Bubble Net had funded, and hoping that the way we were feeling was allergies or, at worst, a cold... But for George, unfortunately, it was COVID. For me, so far, it's allergies, and an increased antihistamine dose seems to be helping.
So, we are isolating from each other for 10 days (the day you test positive is day 0) and hoping it's not too taxing for anyone.
A big thank you to Instacart and Alpenrose for our groceries, Grubhub and Grand Central for our meals, and our awesome neighbour Sarah for picking up George's Paxlovid.
You may have seen me limping at Origins. It's because my hip issue is flaring, meaning driving is prohibitively painful. Thank goodness we have options!
