Rick Heli and The Game Crafter - Episode 18727 Feb 201900:30:36

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Is everyone telling you, maybe even us in a previous podcast, that your game is too long or costs too much? Should you just scrap everything? Is it impossible to get sales for a game like that?

 

Well, we've also told you in the past to make your game and not worry about what other games are out there. And this week, we talk with someone that has done just that!

 

JT and Jeff talk to Rick Heli about his success on The Game Crafter. Rick has sold around 300 copies of his game Founding Fathers, not to mention the expansions for the game. Founding Fathers is a $65.99 indie game, with a playtime that can take 2-5+ hours.

 

So join us for this episode to hear from Rick on how this has been possible.

Arthur Franz on using The Game Crafter - TGC- Episode 18607 Feb 201900:45:07

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

JT and Jeff talk to Arthur Franz about his success on The Game Crafter. Arthur has had to overcome many obstacles with his current board game, Breakaway Football,  as an indie game designer: The game costs over $50, it's not being sold by a "big name" publisher, and it's a sports genre game.

 

Despite all the obstacles, Breakaway Football is being well received and has sold well. Arthur helps us understand his strategy for making this work!
