New game designer success story!

Fri, 01/08/2016 - 15:34 — The Game Crafter

This is a great success story about an indie game designer named Alex Cobian. He took his game, Booty, to Gen Con in 2013 and it was picked up and eventually published by Mayfair games. We were happy to hear that he uses The Game Crafter to produce all of his prototypes. :)

We’re going to try and setup a designer interview with Alex so we can learn more about him and his journey. We’d like to offer a big congratulations to Alex on getting his game published and for being featured in this article. Great job!
