Hi, I'm Vynce. I haven't figured out how to use this site yet, but maybe that's normal. I was a web developer for over 20 years, starting when Perl was normal, javascript was optional, and there was no CSS. Things have changed a bit since then. Now I'm pursuing other things that I enjoy more: talking and writing about tech, and making board games.

Hey! Fellow newbie over here :) Sounds like you've got some great experience. Do you publish your writing anywhere? And what sort of board games do you make? :D

I've got a few little articles; nothing major yet. I intend to get more serious about posting to Medium, at least.

As for board games - many kinds. I haven't gotten into the world of 3-hour euros, but I'm working actively on about a half dozen different games, including offbeat capitalism, co-op combat, and a deck builder for kids about being Fire Chiefs.

It's definitely a good way to practice!

There aren't enough co-op combat board games in my humble opinion and that deck building for kids idea is brilliant. Best of luck with it!

I love boardgames... especially novel ones different from others I've seen before.
