Hi Ang-Ar! Glad you’re interested in getting my games in the physical form, thanks! :) At this point, I’m still unsure about the release date - I want to playtest the game more to offer a bulletproof product and I don’t want to overlap with LOK Digital release date. So most likely in the beginning of next year, but if I suddenly get a lot of feedback, I might push it for November.
I’m not sure what’s going on with Big Cartel’s text - I just checked the “coming soon” button for this item without specifying the date 😅
Alright, thanks for the quick response!
Great job on these games btw, I've tried some LOK digital, the demo pdf for abdec and (just yesterday) found my way to Lineon and I think your work with these "designer" puzzle books is just fantastic and not something I've seen done before.
(although I think Lineon specifically might be easier to play digitally due to its mechanics)
Bonus question: are the online playtesting options for Herd still being updated? Because the devlog is right - printing all this myself is kind of a lot.
Thank you, really appreciate your words :) Lineon actually might be my next project after Herd (since it’s still unfinished).
I removed all online playtesting option for Herd, because there’s no way to properly experience the second part of the game without the book opened before you. It’s very dependant on the physicality. I know this limits the current reach of the game, but I am making 3d-printed playtesting kits and sending them out to select people and I am depending on kind people making their own playtest kits (even using Lego pieces on an iPad is probably good enough for the late game content). It makes for a very slow playtesting process though 🥲
