Hello folks,
Assured that I'm in good company... I am an aspiring designer who has got a few ideas in the back and one big whammy of a game that I'm play-testing the hell out of at the moment.
I'm determined to get it to the stage where I can plonk in down (or set it up delicately) in front of a publisher who will then make my wildest dreams come true, showering me with adulation and so much money that I'll never work (on anything except game design and philanthropic work) again. Short of this I'd consider it a great success to have a publisher just say "yes" and see where it goes from there.
I got into games designing probably before I got into games (not including childhood monopoly) and have had this project in slow development for a number of years. Now I'm ramping up my efforts. In my play collection I've got copies of Dominion, Ticket to Ride, Istanbul, Jaipur and the more I play the more I'm loving it - and learning!
Anyway I'm a lot less tech savvy than is ideal for this kind of site so thought I'd just take the plunge and intro myself before becoming lost in forums, blogs and random threads.
I've a few questions so should I post these as new forum thread(s) or start a blog?
So hello and thanks for being out there BGDF community.
Andy
