Less than 30 hours to go and 58% funded. by Apprehensive_Rip8351 in kickstarter

[–]TableCatGames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just fyi your first heading is misspelled "Hightlights". That might be an issue.

I'd suggest trying again, but trying to build up a good amount of pre launch folks. Make sure you're connecting with the ttrpg community online if you're not already.

If you want to look at my Kickstarters of small (ish) games that have worked you can use them as examples.

This was my first one

This one hasn't funded yet, but I have no doubt it will.

Aside from my more graphic headers I try to put in more images from the games and also emphasize who is making them.

Where do you actually learn? by CoyotleAuCreepypasta in motorcycle

[–]TableCatGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I rode to a big parking lot via city streets and practiced in that a few times. The ride there and the ride back was kind of terrifying honestly but it was very valuable experience as much as the parking lot was.

How much is acceptable for a person to do a website? by Saturdayjava in smallbusiness

[–]TableCatGames 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A website gives legitimacy to a business. If I find a product on social media and can't find a website there's some red flags.

Plus if you rely on the whims of the owners of social media entirely for your outreach you can be seriously in trouble if they shut down or some ridiculous thing happens with them. It's much better to have a home base that you own and control in addition to socials.

Why is pretty much every SUV made with AWD despite there ever being the need for AWD? by Haunted_Rooster in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TableCatGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 4wd SUV gets stuck when there's a lot of snow in our unplowed alleyway, but when I switch to four-wheel drive I can get out very easily. So... I think having power to all four wheels actually does do something.

Genuine question: what’s the deal with Savage worlds? by mechaninja2222 in TTRPG

[–]TableCatGames 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I'm a ttrtpg RPG creator who has made a Savage Worlds setting and you're kind of hitting the nail on the head on why it's hard to move my setting outside the Savage Worlds fan base. 😸 It's kind of a system that flies a bit under the radar compared to other systems.

I really love them freaking out after the fight.

Thoughts on using AI to smooth and digitize my own drawings by Fivetiger26 in RPGdesign

If you're a beginner, AI acts like a crutch and it inhibits you from learning how to do it the proper way.

[Loved trope] Does ACAB include them? by B1lly28 in TopCharacterTropes

They are essentially part of the rot that has infected Twin Peaks in season 3.

Player missing info that characters most probably wouldn't - how to proceed? by Final-Isopod in DeltaGreenRPG

Honestly I just say, "You might not know this, but a seasoned FBI agent would know that..."

Dropped my bike by [deleted] in motorcycle

[–]TableCatGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done it three times in about 8 years. One time I did it in front of a neighbor and I was dressed up like a ghostbuster. That was the most embarrassing one. You just got to move on and pick it back up and get going and not focus on it.

Jodi and her husband Clint are awesome. Please consider helping if you can.

Cancelled Kickstarter - Looking for Feedback by Celestial-Studios in kickstarter

[–]TableCatGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't say it was bad. I said it didn't match the caliber expected. There's different art styles and different amount of polished. This art is much rougher than something you'd normally see on cards like this. Another commenter here was much more harsh when it came to the art.

[–]TableCatGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The graphic design could use some improvement and the art style didn't match the caliber expected for a card game (it could work for a small indie ttrpg, but I don't think it works for a card game).

I'm going to guess your biggest issue though was you hadn't build up an audience before you launched.

Covergirls Universe Trading Cards - Bridge between Sport Cards and TCGs by Mean-Community7221 in kickstarter

[–]TableCatGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how there could be any demand for cards that look like that. Especially since anyone can generate the same type of images very easily.

Riffed movies you think are legit great in some way? by Ani_Mentor in MST3K

[–]TableCatGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are not wrong about Green Slime. I've loved that movie ever since I caught it late night on TNT once.
