People who follow indie/solo devs on social media tend to be really nice and positive, but even so it takes a lot of effort.” When I have an idea I consider viable, ideally I go straight to prototyping and develop the game from there. What’s your creative process? “I I like to get my hands dirty as early as possible.

Wiscon I’ve attended even early in development to test out ideas, check reactions, and see players interact with everything from paper prototypes to physical, professional printed game versions of State of Wonder. Sweden doesn’t do Unpubs, so bringing a prototype can be dangerous and can sometimes even backfire.
