    Just added a Mario 3 style overmap to our Tactics RPG. Thoughts?

    I watched your video. I think the overworld plan totally works. I think you should have very clear icons to indicate which nodes have an encounter. i.e. a shop icon, or a battle icon, etc. Pixel art can be hard to read at the best of times, so something that contrasts well against your palette...

    Longsword Tabletop Tactics

    Yessir, got an article on Rock Paper Shotgun today, that will definitely help. Jumped a whole bunch today. So that should have a lingering effect. I'm trying to get some folks at PC Gamer to give it a look but so far its radio silence. Wargamer will be running a story as well. So, we'll see...

    Longsword Tabletop Tactics

    That's not really my point. I think a great example is Pox Nora, which is very similar to this, and that game is absolutely not P2W. I have an amazing set of cards and I am constantly getting wrecked by superior players.

    Longsword Tabletop Tactics

    Paying to buy cards gives you quicker access to stuff but it doesn't make you smarter. In magic, where having a killer deck is a direct result of how much money you spend, people still can be outplayed. But here the tactical layer is the real equalizer. I expect that top-tier players will have...

    Longsword Tabletop Tactics

    Yeah Modding has been on my mind. Basically I'm 100% into supporting it, but my number one focus is going to be on providing what you want anyway in terms of fresh content. I have to be careful with what we can do modding-wise because a lot of the game data lives "in the cloud" so it's not super...

    Longsword Tabletop Tactics

    Hi fellas. For the past couple of years I have been working on a Tabletop Tactics game for the PC. The idea is to meld some of my favorite concepts like the Hex Board from Heroscape, Action Point-oriented combat from all different kinds of games, and the collectible elements of tabletop games...

    StarDrive, a potentially interesting 4x game in need of cash

    Hi guys, I wanted to pop in and say that this is my game, and I'm happy to answer any questions about it. This is an arcade/RTS hybrid. It is a grand strategy game in that sense, but it also operates on "turns", except the turns happen whether you want them to or not. Please check out...
