Signs It Is Time to Give up on a Design - Ep. 79

Tuesday, February 26, 2019 • Duration 19:28

When you've been working on a design for a while and you're not sure if there's enough there to keep going with it, we have some signs that it might be time to give up on it. If you want a spoiler, the signs are:

5) No market opportunity
4) Design colleagues don't ask about the status or encourage you to keep working on it
3) Too long to play/too long to explain the rules
2) Not fun enough (playtesters don't ask to play again)
1) No hook or the hook is not good enough

Reasons to Theme Your Prototype - Ep. 78

Monday, February 11, 2019 • Duration 18:52

We go over the top 5 reasons to theme your prototype and some discussion around them. If you want to have them spoiled, here are some of our notes on each one:

5) Theme makes it easier to learn your game. It drives cohesion, direction, and rules comprehension.

4) Some publishers really care about theme (like Brian) so you'll get more opportunities if your game has one. You'll get in the door. Theme sells better than math. Games are an experience, and theme tells your story.

3) A themed games is more interesting to players so you'll get more playtesters. It shows your playtesters that you respect their time and level of enjoyment.

2) Save the publisher time by showing them it is complete. A game with no theme isn't done yet and they would usually not do that work if they can avoid it. Once you're in the door, you're more likely to stay there.

1) Theme is part of the design. Why are we even talking about them as if they are independent parts?
