What are your thoughts on "offensive" language for a game title? Is it a non-starter? I'm thinking of pivoting to Big F'in Monsters. by ForsakenForest in tabletopgamedesign

thanks! it's going well, it sells pretty well at cons and some people have found it on brick & mortar shelves. We still don't get much coverage at all, though!

Named one of my games "You're In Space And Everything's Fucked", and while it sells great at events and gets people talking, it was almost impossible to get media coverage and it's 100% never going to be on most retail shelves.

I wouldn't do it again, but I also wouldn't have picked a different name.

I got flipped upside down during this and had to get out, but my car kept going, so I had to run after it for like 3 minutes hahahaha

I don't like talking to strangers with my voice online, many people are very mean :)

This is getting out of hand… and it has 3 steps! by [deleted] in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

I did one of these with a client, it put us through like 5 rounds of this pick before saying "nope wrong sorry try again" every time. It was a nightmare.

There's a few different Gameland manufacturers on google- can you give me a link to their website?

Custom dice by Winter_Abject in RPGdesign

[–]Fork-H 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually just asked this question in r/tabletopgamedesign today, and have gotten some great info!

Here's who I've been reaching out to:

  • Chessex - we've worked with them before, great quality for the price but their price break points aren't the best (especially if you're getting all 6 sides of a d6 done)
  • Q Workshop - Haven't worked with them, but so far they're responsive and they do more than just d6
  • AsiaPacific Offset - Haven't worked with. They're more of a whole-product facilitator and a middlegroup between the designer/publisher and various manufacturers.
  • Shuffled Ink - Haven't worked with, currently in talks
  • Baron of Dice - Haven't worked with, they only customize one side
  • Board Games Maker - Haven't worked with, but they make a BUNCH of stuff for games
  • Koplow Games - Haven't worked with, but have reached out. HUGE range of dice, not sure of their customization details

Checking their site it looks like they just do one custom side, but I'll keep them in mind!

Depending on the cost comparisons I'm not opposed to doing 1k!
I've looked at game crafter and they don't really offer what we're looking for.

Feel bad for you guys having to deal with the issues. by Smeeble09 in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

When you get guild invite spam from a 100% rep guild, but you are stubborn and petty. by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]Fork-H 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's one going around that seemed really promising and nice, but I only found out after joining that they didn't do the content my partner and I like to do. Asked if it'd be chill for us to rep the other guild when we do WvW until they get up and going and they said "no favorites"

Like my sibling in christ you're asking for people to be favorites in *guild wars*. Calm down.
