An Update?

It has been a very busy time for me. With our news coverage, we gained a lot of interested models for my upcoming Amazons game. This has put me under a lot more pressure than I was prepared for. I took a week off from work to focus on game design. That was a good choice, I have learned that next time I will sequester myself with a staff someplace away from the day to day. Meaning, I did not get as much accomplished as I had hoped, but I still made progress.

My main focus right now is feeling out some of the tribes of Amazons. I started writing a back story for the whole game to pull everything together, and some elements no longer fit and feel silly. I've started working out what I need to do, but now its back to work. Sigh.

Some days there simply is not enough time.

In the meantime, Some Assembly Required playtested rather well. We made some changes, and decided the legs were all under-powered. The game itself is so simple, I have to fight not to add more complexity to it every time I work on it. Must keep game design pure!

Everyone enjoyed the easy to follow combat mechanics. This coming weekend I hope to test again with some new elements, and a cooperative mission.

All good things.
