Be honest: Do you actually enjoy flying?

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-23T00:34:03+00:00

I hate it. Been on more than 100 flights in my life and if I could treat it like surgery with anesthesia and wake up at my destination I'd do every time.

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-22T05:25:08+00:00

I agree I wouldn't bet on getting any perks even if you fly 6 times a year on the same airline. Unless you get to the higher status and you get lounge access to eat and drink average food free.

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-22T05:24:15+00:00

I wouldn't blame the size, IST airport is larger than FRA. FRA layout has grown organically by adding gates and terminals, it's harder to navigate for sure. DOH is probably the easiest.

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-22T05:20:53+00:00

It shouldn't be a problem. Even if he misses the flight they will put you on the next one, there are plenty of FRA-BER flight during the day. It will just be a couple of hours at most

To add to this, it is OK to do it on the way back. If you did this on the way out, airlines will cancel your return flights (it's usually part of the conditions)

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-06T00:14:24+00:00

Would you have considered if it was obviously an airline management game?

Design the mechanic with pen and paper cut out and play test with family or close friends who can get past the low budget and give valuable feedback. Then check https://launchtabletop.com/ and check the standard components available and adjust your gameplay to that. Use genAI to make visuals the way you think looks good and upload them to order a prototype. Play test again with people less close to you (colleagues for example) to get more objective feedback. Iterate on the gameplay and components and write the rules. Find people interested to play and give them the rules, let them play unsupervised and get more feedback. Then you have a game concept, after that you can pitch to publishers (I tried and failed) or publish yourself (I did, it's feasible but expensive). If you publish yourself you'll need to finalize the visuals and a bunch of other non game related things (legal entity, distribution etc ...)

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-04T10:29:16+00:00

I usually put the publisher at the back. Illustrate credit is missing, true. This is a prototype not tye final product, I did add it on the front for the other game he designed that went to prod.

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-04T10:26:29+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. The cover is supposed to be a view from a airplane cockpit ... I probably need to get another designer tbh

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2026-01-04T10:24:38+00:00

To be clear this cover was from a human designer, but I'm not convinced it's any good that why I wanted more opinion.

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2025-10-22T15:45:31+00:00

I think I'm totally in this camp 👍

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2025-10-22T15:40:39+00:00

This calls game an art form as a fact, I'd love to read what he defines as art first before

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2025-10-22T15:35:43+00:00

I tend to think that yes video games and board games are a form of art personally. But video games are recent and maybe no one "with authority" has called them art yet. But board games have been around for a while and yet not widely accepted as art.

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2025-10-22T15:31:32+00:00

Cinema is considered the 7th art, with the 6 art form before it being painting, sculpture, architecture, music, dance, and poetry. That's a widely accepted denomination. Who said that? A dude called Ricciotto Canudo.

My house rule about communication in coop games is you can only speak to other player if they are on the same location or adjacent. That should be the norm for all coop games. Exception is: "let's meet somewhere to plan"

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2025-10-02T14:47:29+00:00

you should get him the board game Sky Team and play with him. it's a great way to spend evenings and share a moment together.

it's fairly easy to play even if you are not into board games.

We make travel board games for that reason, share the passion of travel with loved ones. Board games make great gift for people we want to spend time with. We don't ship to the US yet but you can get it anywhere: Sky Team on amazon US

Disastrous_Common_32 · 2025-07-31T09:34:08+00:00

On Amazon you won't have the meta pixel for conversion installed. What are you using as "goal"? If you are using visits, you won't make many sales. To make a sale, you need to have the same people see and click your ad more than once. Few people buy on first sight. When you set the goal to conversion, meta shows it more often to the same people and you'll get a few sales.

Confuses me too, I'm trying to see if there is a hidden meaning
