Hey GAMERS!

Guess what!
WRONG!

We're going to #GenCon this year!
And we're bringing GAMES.
Which games?

THESE GAMES:
• #Flanxiety (strategy and luck)
• #Asterism (tile placement with pentagons)
• #GordianMaps (traffic manipulation)
• #SwitchSwatch (set collection about making colors)

Be there!
Flanxiety: An abstract game set in a 10×10 grid of spaces, wherein players roll a die and place that number into the grid. Flanking lines of opponents' dice between your own lets you reduce their values, remove them entirely, or even take the space for yourself. The first player to get 13 dice on the board wins. Asterism: A tile-placement game with tiles that don't tessellate. Add a new star to the Sky by one-upping the number at the edge with your own (play a 3 on a 2, or a 1 on a 0, but not the other way around). Create a closed shape to claim the stars that make that shape. Use opponents' stars to steal them away. The first player to hold 20 stars wins. Gordian Maps: Take on the role of a navigation app that can control traffic lights, and compete with other such apps to get your customers to the destinations first. Choose streets, rather than individual cars, to move on your turn, and change the traffic signals to get your customers where they need to go. The first player to get four customers to their destinations wins. Switch Swatch: Stack up component sliders to match one of the colors in the palette to take that color for yourself, or use the powers on the slider cards to steal cards or change the palette. The player with the most swatches when one of the decks runs out wins.

New game on the way! #SwitchSwatch

Collect sliders to make the colors in the palette, or use cards for their powers instead!

While the THEME is color, this game is meant to be very colorblind-accessible. Anyone in or around Colorado Springs, CO, is invited to play it firsthand and give feedback!
The logo for the game "Switch Swatch" on a series of red, green, and blue squares. Each red square has a letter "R" on a triangle, each green square has a "G" on a circle, and each blue square has a "B" on a smaller blue square. The face, bottom side, and left side of the box for "Switch Swatch". The face reads: "Switch Swatch / a game about building colors / by Rob Bourgeois / ages 12+ / 2-6 players". The bottom side has the "Switch Swatch" logo. The left side (from the box's perspective) reads "Switch Swatch / v0.2". Each side has a series of labeled and colored squares in the background, with grey between them. The back, top side, and right side of the "Switch Swatch" box. The top and right sides have the "Switch Swatch" logo. The back reads: "Switch Swatch / a game about building colors by Rob Bourgeois / Gather sliders to match swatches, use powers to improve your position, and collect the most swatches to win! / Every card has a power! / Stack to match a swatch! / Pay attention to the backs! / Switch Swatch, its design, and its logos ©2026 [Raspberry Grenade Games logo is supposed to be here] / 20-35 minutes for 2 players, more means longer".

New game coming down the pike!
#SwitchSwatch is a set collection game revolving around matching sliders that form the colors currently available to collect.
Despite the color theme, I've tried to make sure you don't need color vision to play! Did it work?
Some cards for the game "Switch Swatch". Top-left, left to right: swatch cards showing cobalt (0 red, 1 green, 2 blue; or #0055AA), pistachio (0 red, 3 green, 1 blue; or #00FF55), and light yellow (3 red, 3 green, 1 blue; or #FFFF55) are spread out. Top-right: the swatch deck, with violet red (2 red, 0 green, 1 blue; or #AA0055) showing on top. Bottom-center: some slider cards slightly spread out. The top slider card shows 2 red and 2 green, or the power "Double". The sliders beneath show 0 green and 0 blue, followed by 0 blue. Bottom-left: the slider deck, with an unknown red-green card on top. Through its clear windows, the back of a red-green-blue card can be seen. Bottom-right: the pastel pink (3 red, 2 green, 3 blue; or #FFAAFF) swatch card, next to a matching stack of slider cards. Slider cards have clear windows to allow sliders of other colors to show through.

There are also a number of games still in the works here. Expect gameplay and tutorial videos in the future, but here's a sneak peek at a game called #SwitchSwatch!
A hand of five cards, showing color sliders: 0 N, 1 I, W I, 2 I, and 3 I are visible. On the table, some cards (center) showing swatches and color sliders, two players' hands (far-left and far-right, face-down), a commingled draw pile (left), and a rules sheer (back).
