Guidance for Aspiring Game Designers: Start Small, Use Kickstarter, Prioritize Playtesting

I was joined by Christian Plogfors and Carl Niblaeus, the creative minds behind Death in Space - which I named as my favourite game in 2022. Death in Space is a game about adventure and uncertain journeys out into the darkness of space, where the void whispers to the unlucky and imbues travelers’ bodies with strange powers. It is about you and your crew making a home of your spacecraft or station, your only sanctuary in a dangerous universe. Most of all, it is about surviving in an abandoned frontier system where resources are scarce, and competition is fierce. Engage in power struggles and build your crew’s reputation. Salvage and steal to endure a ruthless universe. And above all, do anything you can to get that next job. Your life will depend on it.
