Played me some board games last night! Started out with a playtest of a quick game concept I designed. Very promising. Then on to some Brass Lancashire, still a new game to me but I did better than expected. And finished with a classic Castles of Burgundy.

New game! Going to be testing Lazy Samurai at the next Melbourne Incubator event. A simple game about trying not to come first. Or last.

Got to play After Us, Pearladöra, Marrakech, Secret Identity at the Board Hoardsers' #baordGames night. I think my fav out the lot was Marrakech. Rug tastic!

Boardgamewire.com are reporting on the competition ramping up between Gamefound and Kickstarter for tabletop crowdfunding. KS have gone for pledge management and payment splits. GF are community building with playtest groups, which could be interesting for grabbing an audience of folks who feel invested… but you should probably have already done your playtests before you even *look* at a crowdfund site.
The main thing that's still missing for me is layout tools for the pages. Without decent options for this crowdfund pages have devolved to creators just dumping monolithic images to get the look they want. These are screen-reader and mobile hostile. While KS finally dragged itself out of the nineties by allowing alt text, most folks are not using it. The cargo cult of "the big money campaigns do it so me tooooooo" drives me fecking nuts. Use TEXT, people.
ok, rant over :)

Ready for to farm! Agricola All Creatures Big and Small is on the table. Advanced mode which means more buildings to pick from.
I just noticed that the original title is "Agricola: Die Bauern und das liebe Vieh". German boardgame titles are always fun.
