When your Kickstarter successfully funded, it seemed like the apotheosis of your board game career. But with great money, comes great responsibility… Need help on your board game?

I have a (paid) art job opening for my side project. I'm not going to say much about the game other than what I'm looking for in an artist. Think of it as a puzzle. I'm looking for a great 2D pixel tile artist. You need to have experience building tiles sheets for a tile-based game, I would prefer it if you've worked on a released game, but if haven't and your art is just a hobby and you're really good, that's OK.

Telltale Games died because it stopped moving forward : Pour one out for Telltale. We praise their work in “Slay the Dragon,” and we hate to see a story-game-focused company fold like this, but we found Kuchera’s to be a fair assessment.

This is a good video. But, for the record… I hate the term onboarding. I’m not against the concept. I just hate the word.

Launching a board game Kickstarter requires the coordination of an enormous amount of effort, time, and talent. For that reason, I encourage people to see success more as a holistic process than as a particular moment when things click.

Fulfillment is one of the trickiest parts of any board game Kickstarter. It requires your inventory being sent from your manufacturer via freight shipping agencies through customs agents to warehouses and finally to your customers.

Make some noise for Godot 3.1! Simplex noise generation has just landed in Godot 3.1! This noise generation algorithm, originally invented by Ken Perlin, is fast and has really good results but it is still encumbered by some patents. That's why Godot will use OpenSimplex noise, a public domain and unencumbered alternative. Applications. Simplex noise, like any other type of noise, is especially useful in two areas of game development: procedural generation and visual effects.
