Game Design

2 I had an idea... start a Game Design Open Forum via Google Hangouts. I was overwhelmed with response and some cool dudes decided to take over. Thank you cool dudes.
Something From Nothing
When I originally released Tuesday Night Tanks, the cards were confusing to some. Based on player feedback I changed the design to be more accomodating... turns out, the redesign was terrible. So, I've re-re-designed the cards.
Tuesday Night Tanks – An Update
I met with the publisher at GenCon... I was nervous... but it went well regardless.
Hedeby at GenCon
I've always wondered what it would be like to have a seasoned professional look at one of my designs and offer new ideas or directions that have never even crossed my mind. Let me tell you, it's awesome when that happens.
Hedeby Gets Professionally Developed
Two more podcasts from GenCon. Apparently I like talking... and listening to myself... I like that part also.
Two More Podcasts
I was delighted to record a bunch of sessions with some really awesome people at GenCon. Three of these sessions were assembled by the guys at buildingthegamepodcast.com. They are cool peeps.

A Theme Takes Shape… Stupid Brain…
A game I started nine months ago has taken shape... ever so slowly... and a prototype has been made. It sits, untested, because I am not inspired by it. I am curious however, and can't seem to let it go.
New Game. No Name. – Designing Without Theme
3 I haven't been designing much lately, but last week I threw something together while camping.

You can talk about an idea for years, but until you try it, you'll never know if it works or not.
