Comic about temperature.

Here’s a comic I wrote about temperature. I wrote the first panel first, and everything else bloated outwards like a disgusting fungus.

Comic about acting.

So, this comic started with just the first three panels, but then I decided I had to take it to the limit.

Hack the Planet!

Man… it’s been a long time since this website has been updated. Well, time to change all that. I’ve just developed a new game which has been play-tested with varying numbers of players a couple of times with a surprising degree of success. It’s called Hack the Planet, named from a catchphrase in a movieContinue reading “Hack the Planet!”

Robot Factor "E"

Robot Factor “E” is a new game by me. It may be my best effort yet on the board game front… it is about little robots in a futuristic outer space warehouse exterminating space bugs (the “E” in the title is for “extermination”). Two players compete to zap the most space bugs and return toContinue reading “Robot Factor "E"”

Babe Owl

I made this for Diana’s roommate who’s (none intended) into owls. There have been some new “Boyds” recently, but I ain’t got a camera. Oh well.

Number Sandwich

OK, here’s a little game I’m working on. It needs some tweaking, but it’s sort of fun to play already. You can make it at home as long as you have paper, pencil, and three six-sided dice. It’s called Number Sandwich. Make two grids as shown in the picture at the bottom of this post.Continue reading “Number Sandwich”

Hunter and Hunted

So, here is a little game a thought up the other day. It’s for two players, it’s called Hunter and Hunted,and the theme is “Inuit vs. Polar Bear.” The catch is, the polar bear is invisible to the Inuit unless he is facing him directly. Otherwise, the Inuit player only can guess the polar bearsContinue reading “Hunter and Hunted”

Hat Poem

One of my roomates has taken up knitting. A few weeks ago, I found a tiny hat, just big enough for an orange beside the sink, and so: A fitten mitten for a fist,but little else is it.It looks so warm and comfy though,I wish at I could knit.

Demeter

Greetings again, Rhino watchers. So, my previous post regarded a boardgame I invented called “Food of the Gods.” Well, I play-tested the game last night, and as it turns out, it isn’t fun. While not being fun is OK for upper level college courses and dental procedures, it is somewhat unforgivable in a boardgame. So,Continue reading “Demeter”

New Board Game!

So, if you read this blog, you may remember a simple auction game I invented called “Meals for the Gods.” Well, I have been marinating with that idea for a while, and I recently expanded the concept and a simple mechanic from that game into a full-on board game called “Food of the Gods.” TheContinue reading “New Board Game!”

Giftmas Ornaments

Every year at the O’Keefe household we whip up our own homemade ornaments for Giftmas. Subjects vary, with this years crop including robots, pancakes, and of course the obligatory Christmas Narwhal. Here are about half of this year’s products, hanging to dry.And here are three of my own recent creations. My main theme this yearContinue reading “Giftmas Ornaments”

Another Cardboard Rhino

I made this rhino a few years ago – around the time of the first cardboard rhino story. I like the exposed ridges above the legs and on the tail.

On the Meat Trail

So, here’s a little preview of a new board game I’m working on. It’s called On the Meat Trail, and it’s largely inspired by Jack London’s novel White Fang. 2 players control wolves, trying to survive a cold northern winter. They must forage in the forest for ptarmigans, sneak up on deer, take cover inContinue reading “On the Meat Trail”

My Rhino

So, here’s a picture of my rendition of the fabled Cardboard Rhino. The cardboard it is made out of was not harvested from rhinos, but from the somewhat less elusive Cardboard Box.You can catch a glimpse of our family art bulletin board. It’s sort of the IRL version of this blog…
