I'm looking for 5 qualified game devs who want to take their prototype from an early idea to secured funding in next 6 months.

Is this you?

Just got the most amazing gift from @ShadowborneGame - an original of a map I helped design and the amazing @FBaerald drew beautifully.
And I can't show anyone cause it'd be a huge spoiler for Oathsworn: Into the Deepwood 😅

@anton_herzog Obviously you were not paying attention.

I can see my students absolutely understand Gameplay Loops (Found next to a chair during break)

Doing business at #SPIEL22 -- "Here please sit in our crammed storage space on tiny stools with us and let's talk" 😅

Also -- no soy/oat or other vegan milk for my (overpriced) coffee

#SPIEL22 Let's go! I'm here to talk to publishers about a card game aim currently working on an with another designer.
Very curious to see some immer workings of the board games industry.

The trade visitors ticket is a bit of a joke -- you get access to the "business area" which is really just a restaurant on the side of one hall - doesn't even have power plugs

[Kevin Blank @silentKB]

What I already know (from before the trade fair) -- somehow the board games industry is at the same time quaint but also aggressively opaque.
Also incredibly conservative, especially the German industry

[Jacky Martin @TheJackyMartin]

When I started developing the "Hero Journey" program, I wanted to develop it first for myself and not for other people.

I wanted a structured and systematic approach to developing viral games - effectively and often.

More AI Art content (these things take a while to pit together though)

[Kevin Blank @silentKB]

Still trying to figure out what to tweet about. I kinda want to use Twitter more but I also feel I should do something on it XD
Current ideas in thread

[Kevin Blank @silentKB]

Weird game ideas I have but never will work on

[Kevin Blank @silentKB]

Just random stuff popping in my head

[Kevin Blank @silentKB]

A "Day of a Game Designer" kind of thing where I regularly tweet about what kind of stuff I'm doing.

Game design, the fantasy: Crafting an amazing vision of moment-to-moment gameplay.

Game design, reality: Discussing a single stat in vague terms for an hour.

Chorus: Only an hour?

[Kevin Blank @silentKB]

Huh, apparently Remote doctors are a thing that works and is allowed in Germany. For smaller ailments you can just zoomcall with them and your health insurance covers it...how ungerman #digitalisierung #neuland

@TheJackyMartin You won't be alone! You'll still have (some) of us! 😅
