I like making games and hope to get connected with a game making community, not only in the game board arena but in web game design as well. I am trying to design games and stories, and have begun pre grand opening activities. Suddenly, BGDF comes back with a notification that my membership has been accepted. Hoorah!
Wait, who? It has been forever, I thought you forgot about me. But then you were there and I wonder what this is all about. Hi my name is Shane, and I am making a game. The kickStarter begins in February, and I am hoping that it is not too late or too early to begin speaking about it.
The game is finished and I am, almost, ready to send the prototype out for reviews. Having found a basic flaw on the cover, and a need for an addition stat on the Fighter card I want to make sure I have all the changes, scheduled for the Kickstarter, as fully listed as possible before I do. I might make one more change but I am on the fence about it.
My main focus, right now, is gathering information about marketing so that my Kickstarter listing gets seen by as many people as possible. I am a low income wage earner, and so this move is important for me to succeed in since it can cost money up front. I can not waste any money, that would hurt my feelings. Without a successful KickStart, I will have to wait on a, profit level, print as I save my save money to pay for the printing myself.
I put off launching the KS in October, deciding I wasn't ready even though the game is in a playable state. Already this process has taught me a lot about scheduling a production cycle. Looking at your tools speaks volumes as to what this site might be helpful with - Creating that design cycle - for an optimized, product to profit supply, for profit demand.
If that made sense, High Five - Shane: Best Regards
