  • Weekly[ish] Update – Sept 27, 2012

    I guess I knew this would happen… I have a difficult time sticking to prepared plans. This Weekly[ish] Update thing didn’t quite work for me last week, so I skipped a week. Maybe I’ll change the name to bi-monthly update? Well, this week, there is a new one!

  • Weekly[ish] Update – Sept 14, 2012

    This week, I write a bit about the difficulty with mommy being out of town and what it took to get Paper Route ready.

  • Paper Route Launch!

    I have officially launched Paper Route today! It is available on its very own game page, and also at thegamecrafter.com for purchase! I’m really excited to share this game with the world!

  • Scallywags Give Away!

    I interviewed with the Cardboard Jungle podcast this month and decided to give away a copy of Scallywags! If you want to find out how to enter, check out Episode 5 (I’m on at around the 1:46:00 mark.) The contest runs until International Talk Like a Pirate Day on Sept, 19th, so get your entries…

  • Weekly[ish] Update – Sept 6, 2012

    I have struggled to keep up with writing for the site. Writing quality content weekly about my big designs is difficult. I’ve decided to start writing weekly[ish] updates where I can talk about the various little projects I have been working on.

  • Project: Dead End part 11 – Starting Over-ish

    I took a month of from testing Dead End and when I came back, it was not the game I remembered. I tested it at GenCon with a publisher and it wasn’t exactly a hit. Find out what went wrong and what went right.

  • GenCon 2012 – My Adventures

    GenCon has come and gone yet again. I had some expectations. I had very different adventures. I had the time of my life.

  • Hexploration – Close to the Finish

    Another successful test of Hexploration this week. The underlying system is shaping up nicely. I don’t really think this is the end for this project however.

  • Hexploration – Rebuilding from Catastrophe

    I skipped a week discussing this game for a very simple reason: it sucked. Last weeks playtest session was a disaster. It has been difficult to write about, but this weeks session got me back on course. I’m actually excited to share this!
