Games like Fit in 150 Minutes

Note: a huge shout out to Angel who helped a LOT with the graphical layout: she chose the font, the battery image, and the image on the right side of the page. She also chose the background color of the card. It looks infinitely better than if I made it myself!   You'll Need Yourself (this is a solo game, but can be played with or against others)One printed postcardFour standard dice (d6)A way t…

This game was created in 72 hours for the Ludum Dare Jam which had the theme of "Limited Space". Click that "View submission" button at the top of the page if you'd like to see it. While exploring space, you discovered the edge of the universe! Worse yet, you quickly realize it's shrinking, and space is... acting up around here. Asteroids and debris are flying everywhere and space itself is assaul…

Become a Zinester ($3) or higher on our Patreon before January 23rd to get this zine for free! Quotes are one of my favorite things to collect. I like to reflect on them and find new hidden depths within. I often try to think about how to apply certain quotes in my life to better it in some way.  Living in Quotations is a zine that contains quotes that I've chosen to ponder a little more closely…

This is an 8-page pocket-sized zine created using a prompt from the Zine Idea Generator to "make a blackout poem zine that shows screenshots from your camera roll."  I went a couple steps further with this challenge and limited myself to only screenshots that were already on my phone, and to take no new screenshots for the purpose of using in this zine. I also made the black out poetry from scree…

Color Me Loved is a series of short poems I (Angel) wrote. I made them into zine format to give to Beth because the poetry site we met on is no longer there and it's just nice to have them exist elsewhere. How Do I Fold It Though? This video is a great example of how to fold an 8-page zine!  More Poetry Zines You can check out other zines you can read in your browser here, along with some …

I've been cranking out zines left and right this month, but when I hit the "Memories" prompt I was stumped. Angel came up with such a beautiful zine for the month celebrating her grandmas, but I sat here like... "What memory should I write about"? It wasn't about narrowing down my choices, it was about picking literally anything at all that I haven't written about a million times. Even my discover…

I mean... My name is Beth, Elizabeth is one of the best characters ever, what more can I say? Seriously though, BioShock Infinite is one of my favorite games of all time. The story is incredible, and there are some absolutely remarkable quotes. One of them really hit home for me due to my terrible memory: "The mind of the subject will desperately struggle to create memories where none exist."  T…

An 8-page zine written for the #minizinejuly23 challenge on instagram posted by blancisthecreative. The prompt for July 31st was 24 hr Zine, with instructions to "Make a mini zine about anything within 24 hours! Or take on the original challenge of 24 pages in 24 hrs!"   I had intended for the 24 hr zine to be a game but I got a pretty late start today. After about an hour of working on the game …

An 8-page zine written for the #minizinejuly23 challenge on instagram posted by blancisthecreative. The prompt for July 6-10 was throwback, with instructions to "Take us back to the past!" So, I chose to write a silly zine about things that get lost to time and how they sound a bit weird to younger generations that didn't live it. I used examples from 3 generations of my family (my memaw, mom, and…

When I was trying to figure out what to write for a pocket guide, I went back into my old reliable well of "what would be helpful for ME." And the answer was: a lil booklet of stuff I often have to Google! Or, well, Bing (for the Microsoft Reward Points!), but "Stuff I Often Bing" doesn't sound as cool. The zine covers: Several different grammatical topics (I do a good amount of editing work, incl…
