Devlog #1: Kismet and Feedback
Had a couple of interesting run-ins recently.
Was just thinking about how I need to playtest MERELY PLAYERS (it's been such a hard time getting folks together!) and passed these on the street, glaring at me.

I took this as a sign to post an update! I've received some really excellent feedback from some some great designers like Credendo, Exeunt Press, paperwizards, and cubecookie333. Also got some helpful thoughts from some collaborators at Atlanta Shakespeare Company, who worked on a production of The Venetians this past summer. All together, the game has really benefitted from and developed with the help of these experienced designers whose work I really love. Check out their pages!
In the meantime though, I'm still trying to playtest, but it's difficult getting a group together. Does anyone want to give the game a spin with their adventure party and let me know what they think? Leave a comment.
