Martin 🏷 Wishlist Crownbreakers plz

Awesome! I'm so happy that my little game made it this far! I hope they'll have a blast!

Gonna be there WED/THU. Let's hang!

Oh absolutely you can have one! I'm super excited that this is the second library I'm hearing of, that's running Goblin Errands games! This is such a joy! 💚

Really lovely!

Spire helped evolve the Sharkbomb logo from the old, edgy one to the much more friendly current iteration! They are really talented and you should book them if you need a logo!

Just look at this:

Logo commissions opened up yesterday! Thanks to all the friends and clients that have been sharing this around, I see you 🥺 💕

2.1 Lenses, Not Boxes I wondered whether this section was necessary, but games discourse seems to repeatedly find itself adrift in questions of whether _ counts as a _. We have seen the question repeatedly: Do games count as art? Do games without goals count as games? Is The Sims a game? Are hypertexts interactive fiction? Are Twine pieces literature? In fairness to the researchers cited here, all of whom I respect immensely, many of these sources pose or imply the question rhetorically. Still, the necessity of such a framing frustrates me. "Is _ a _?" is, in my opinion, a fruitless question. The question can never be answered to anyone's satisfaction, and it often serves as either a provocation to espouse politics or as a cover to institute gatekeeping. Its agenda is usually opaque to onlookers and bewildering to those trying to advance the field from across disciplines. We should be thinking in lenses, not boxes. It is always more interesting to ask "If we think of _ through the lens of _, what do we learn?" We know it is more interesting to ask "What do we learn by considering Tom Stoppard through the lens of poststructuralism?" than to ask "Is Stoppard's work poststructuralist?" And while some works may be more or less fruitful when examined through different lenses, sometimes the most unlikely pairings of lenses and objects are the most rewarding. Certainly any of the questions above would be much better served by reframing them in this way.

Wow we’re having “games are art” discourse again! Just gonna leave this here.

From my dissertation:

Spent some time adding some simple FX when you click on the background. I do have much more pressing things todo, but sometimes you need to procrastinate with something fun. It also has support for multiple materials!

Let me be a little doubtful that I'm younger than you...

Man, I really, really love your style. I wish I was half as good!

Looks great!

Goblin Errands at GENCOOOOOOON!

LeGuin wrote about the desire for 'unassailable safety' as one of the deep roots of evil, and I think about that a lot.

Congratulations!

No RPGs or minis while on vacation in a remote location? No problem! Just butcher some old cereal cartons and bring out some pens! #ttrpg

That „nonconsensual mutilation“ is on this list but they‘re coming for any nsfw games and leaving the shooters alone tells you what a fucking joke this censorship is

Jumping onto the #indiegame meme bandwagon with #Crownbreakers! Here's about two years of development.

And as always, wishlist!

Thank you! Now all I need is to finish the game and successfully sell it...

THIS IS HUGE FOR US
KEEP CALLING THEM BECAUSE IT'S WORKING

Their willingness to bend to some loud conservatives mean they hate nothing more than bad publicity!!

Also, if you go: I‘d love a picture of Goblin Errands at the booth/show!

A steam capsule showing the Crownbreakers logo, the protagonist and three cards without text or icons.

Put some time into the #Crownbreakers steam capsule to make sure people understand that my #indiegame is a card game. Which means I added cards to the image. However because Steam prohibits non-logo text I stripped them off all information - I think for the better...

Thanks! And no, it's a fun coincidence but honestly I don't believe it's gonna make any trouble.

Crownbreakers on Steam Insatiable, hyper-charged capitalism has the magical city in a chokehold. Crash into the tyrants' districts and build your deck as you push forward. Use your heroes and your cards to fight back agains...

Appreciated!

Thank you for the feedback! The goal is to have art on the following pages that gives you a feel for the vibe of the game.

Happy to hear it!
