Emerald City Comic Con is this weekend! It’s a huge celebration of all things geek: comics, TV, movies, art, games, cosplay, and that weird “adult” anime panel I went to last year. For us, it’s a chance to showcase our latest title: Far Away. It’s also a painful reminder that I can’t correctly type the word “Emerald” in one try.
Kids, Play, Rules, and Fun
Over the last couple months, I’ve had the opportunity to share Far Away with a younger audience. The King County Library System hosts board gaming meetups featuring local designers and local youths. It’s always so fascinating to watch kids play a game. It’s so natural to them. These particular Far Away sessions were interesting enough that I wanted to meditate (blog) about some age-related thoughts.
Far Away Design Journal - Recent Refactoring
We’ve been keeping busy on all the Far Away fronts. The Cherry Picked Team has updated the print-and-play with our new creature and building card designs. This is an important internal milestone. Because of that, we wanted to publicly share our next production steps.
