I have been working on Puzzmo, in secret, for almost two years now with @orta.

Puzzmo is *the* place to play daily newspaper puzzle games online.

TODAY we are launching a brand new daily crossword (designed to be approachable like all of my games) alongside with 2 other new games from me (and 3 older ones reimagined)

During prelaunch we only let in 500 people a day, so get at em!

I hope you enjoy Puzzmo!

i'm making a gamecube game, and i'm writing about the process on my blog - hope you'll give it a read!

Testing some new tiles, for the "Oh no, more goblins!" tileset, as well as a new 22-color palette I made for displaying them.
