He was the lead designer on Till the Last Gasp (2023), a 2-player dueling game published by Critical Role's imprint Darrington Press.[2][3] Linda Codega, for Io9, commented that Till the Last Gasp blends "the strengths of the main designers" as Hindmarch's "tactical, number-forward design mentality meshes well with Alex Roberts' established success in designing immersive two-player games".[4]
