Couldn't be more pleased with the production quality from Launch Tabletop @launchtabletop.bsky.social It only took a little over 3 weeks from order to delivery and pre-order support was so responsive and helpful. I'll definitely be using them again for future projects. Highly recommend!

It's a very crowded, yet still niche market, so a lot of pressure and risk with little return. Thanks for sharing and I hope this was cathartic

06.10.2025 22:11 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0There's a point where a board game prototype becomes "fun enough" that play testing it is not a burden or a favor; it's just playing a fun but incomplete game.
I think getting to that point should probably be the initial goal of #BoardGameDesign, well before content, balance, or aesthetics.

I've cut way back on new games over the last year, so I think most of my new buys over that time have come from you! Keep it up!

Looks fun. Saw it mentioned this morning in Decision Space discord
There's 25 cubes and 4x20 chips. So that's 10,500 hand-counted components!

Doesn't look like much, but I just finished sorting, counting, and bagging all the non-card components for 100 copies of Venusian Vegas The Card Game in prep for PAXU IGNM. Just need the Launch Tabletop order to get here for final assembly so they're ready for sale.

When someone inevitably finds the most minor of issues, you can feel good that you've made them feel smart catching a mistake

It seats 12 and I've played Texas Hold 'em with it full. I had more than 1 person say it's a stupid table since you can't play with more than 8
