New direction

Having failed to bring the Nine Worlds online game to a playable state (which I attribute to lack of interest from all parties), I am making use of the ideas and theme for a board game. I love designing games, so much that I seem to jump to designing a new game before I actually bring anything to a testing stage. This leads to a whole lot of concepts on paper, but nothing that can be played!

I particularly love board games because they are very social and can allow several players to participate. Being a wargamer, I often only enjoy 1-on-1 battles. A boardgame allows a much wider scope, a campaign in one sitting. A never passes by without me having some thoughts towards creating something I can play. Perhaps the fantasy I create in my mind is the appeal, feeding my appetite, but I lack the stomach to see it through.

That is my challenge. A challenge I have set and want to see through - a playable game. I am determined and have set my goal - bringing a demo to the Games Expo in 2013. Let's see how it goes.
