BGA is fantastic. Free game selection is always growing. Membership, if you want to pay for the premium games, is a fantastic deal. Only one person in your playgroup needs a membership for everyone to play. The interface for most games is WAY better than actually playing in person and games are so much faster too. It’s not as good as hanging out in person with friends, but it’s damn close.

Just finished this myself. Really glad I finally got around to reading it.

It’s almost like the more beautiful the mathematical concepts being explored, the darker the undertones. Or maybe the settings just make it all starkly bare.

Who is “we” and what is the description?

Less “tree” more “pile”.

Bottom row looks way more diverse than I’d expect.

Looks amazing. I didn’t know it was possible to fully hide the layer lines like you’ve done. How difficult was it to sand?
