The play-testing is going good so far. The mechanics of the game are working just as I hoped and I haven’t had to make any major changes to the way you play the game at all.
We did discover some areas of improvement on the layout of the cards themselves, and I did a (mostly) minor revision to the look of the cards. But, it helped so much to make the cards more readable, and the game play a little smoother.
It wasn’t a huge deal to do, but I had to touch all 52 cards, plus the Deluxe Expansion cards, so it did take forever.
Here’s a sample of the new look. These Elder Dragons are two of my favorites.
Where we are now
- Enter the revision phase and read every card for both grammar and consistency.
- Redo the instruction manual to reflect on the changes.
- Order a new printing.
- Play-test more times with new people
- Go back to Step 1 if anything new comes up, or go to Step 6.
- Set up some Youtube videos with intros, demos, and FAQs.
- Create the downloadable/printable version.
- Set up Patreon to distribute the downloadable/printable version.
- Publish?
- Promote!
It will be a busy 2019, but hopefully well worth it.
