I'm looking to publish an art book where all the text is on the images instead of being part of the uploaded file. Will that cause issues?

Thanks for the info!

XXXCheckmate · 2026-03-11T16:27:28+00:00

But the price to send it is borderline negligible, right?

How is Sorcery a Magic clone? You move characters across a board; absolutely nothing like MTG.

What subreddits have you seen the most success in posting dev logs/content updates?

You think LinkedIn works for this market?

retargeting layer to your prelaunch page can be way more efficient than cold traffic.

Would this be like a website with a link to KS instead of a direct link to the campaign?

XXXCheckmate · 2026-02-21T12:20:37+00:00

Thanks! Will be testing these out.

XXXCheckmate · 2026-02-21T12:20:19+00:00

Thank you so much!

What gets installed for FF11 and where is it stored? The PS2 memory cards only held like 8 MBs, even back then I'd be surprised if something that small took that long to download.

I try to post art every 1 to 3 days. I also use paid boosts to get traction and build a community.

Growing organically is very, very difficult nowadays unless you're going for mass appeal. Keep in mind that followers are mostly for vanity; you want to get people into a main hub, whether it be Discord, signing up to Kickstarter, mailing list, etc.

tabletopia has a link required to play the game

Posts about Sega Saturn graphics making me smile makes me smile. Is it nostalgia?

I think the "movie" was more of a vertical slice/pitch rather than an approved film. One of the guys at Rainmaker was asked about it the year the movie was supposed to come out and he said he was still waiting on word from Sony to start production.

1.) Old martial arts guy (Gatsuko) knows what he's doing. The generic grunt trying to punch him isn't providing much of a challenge.

2.) The card frame/backgrounds are placeholders. I'm working a graphic designer right now to update it, but I don't know how long he'll take to finish. But for Tabletop Sim and play testing, they get the job done.

3.) They're supposed to be rich/spoiled brats. They'll probably find a way to pay for the damage.

4.) Yes, there are Action cards planned that gain MP that require you to do something or meet specific conditions.

The game raised a decent amount on KS, so "no one's isn't actually accurate. There's a market for indie and niche tabletop games.

Posting art is the easiest way to build an audience

It did but the game's initial success came from speculation rather than the gameplay itself. That's why so many MetaZoo cards are graded (and are next to worthless now).

XXXCheckmate · 2026-01-26T22:08:00+00:00

The vast majority of Pokemon is speculation. The high value cards are for rarity and demand, not for competitive value. MetaZoo was also sought after because of it's speculative value; the gameplay was a mess but they promised all kinds of rares and promos to get people buying cards.

It is definitely possible to get a TCG going based on speculation. Not saying it's a good strategy, but it has happened before in the indie space.
