#flightnineteen — Public Fediverse posts

A couple of folks left me some comments after the game. Very excited, as these were comments from strangers and so they definitely didn’t have to take the time to be nice 😅

What a great time!

Discoveries from today’s playtest: this game is not optimized for six people to play. 😅

I have long figured the ideal was 2-4. I figured I’d try to see if it could support 6. It’s not a great time for the sixth player.

There are some ways around it, but I am not sure if it’s worth optimizing for a group of that size vs keeping what’s working well for a smaller table.

More playtesting!

My partner put together a little mock board to get people interested in coming out tonight.

Excited to see how it goes.

Playtest was a success, although I need to be a better moderator.

My game is reasonable, but too complex for someone who isn’t into board games. That’s not a bad thing, but it meant that today I was spending too much time telling people “This is how you do it” when I should have been saying, “What do you think you need to do next?”

Good learning for my technique and some insights for the game overall. #boardgamedesign #tabletopgamedesign #boardgames #tabletopgames #gamedesign #FlightNineteen

My playtest at a local game store got pushed back to next week, but I may get some coworkers to give it a go on Friday. Excited to see how my changes play out.

Found a photo from 7 years ago of one of the first playtests of a tabletop game I’ve been designing. I’m about to bring it to a local game store to test this week as well.

I design as a hobby. It’s been a great creative outlet to dig into and I’m pretty excited with how far it has come.
