Side quest

25 stycznia, 2023 by Ignacy Trzewiczek Brak komentarzy

In November lastyear, as a way to unwind after a very stressful year, I began working on a crazy project. I made a fanzine. Old school, true fanzine, like as if someone sent it to us straight from 1992 or 1994 via time machine. I invited many friends from the industry to join the project and in a few weeks we put together an issue. Several dozen pages of text about SF, fantasy and tabletop games. I printed a small number of copies, sent them to friends and fans, and put the rest in an online store. I had a great time creating this project. My friends when writing the texts. The readers when reading.

We are currently working on the second issue. And who knows, maybe we’ll even do a third. It’s a freaking amazing side quest from my regular job.

PostCovid prototypes

18 stycznia, 2023 by Ignacy Trzewiczek Brak komentarzy

I used to print prototypes and ship them all over the globe to my fellow publishers and partners to present them with what we created. I used to go to conventions in Europe and in the US to meet with them and run demos of games. That’s how it used to be. It’s no longer the case.

Today I met with 4 publishers, and I run demos for our partners in Spain, Netherlands, Scandinavia, and Ukraine. None of us left the office. No prototype was shipped. All happened via Table Top Simulator. The game demos went nicely and smoothly. Most likely, I secured the future of my game for a couple of countries.

It’s good to be a publisher and have all these modern tools.

Mico macro

We can look at the picture and discuss the good old times of playtesting Robinson Crusoe (and this particular case, it’s most likely playtesting HMS Beagle). But I have a much better idea. Let’s look at the shelf behind and try to guess how many of these board games I still own! 🙂

MY DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

I strongly believe that good board game is the one that tells a good story. You play it and suddenly you are sucked into it, you feel chills on the skin. Emotions grow. In a moment you defend castle. You hear roar of warriors. You smell boiling oil. You are into it. That's how I design my games. I always want to tell a good story. I want players to be into it. As deep as possible.
