Publishing our first game has been an adventure… to say the least.
We have enjoyed the ups and downs and side-ways and twisty moves we have had to make to get our game published and in local stores for you to play. It’s been a while since I have updated you on the journey so grab a drink with an umbrella and lots of ice cubes, because I have a story to tell you!
Last year, we used a local print-on-demand company called The Game Crafter, to publish our game. We knew that it didn’t have the safety testing or the price point we were hoping for, but they did a beautiful job producing our very first game. We were published!
Our next obstacle was to find a way to get our game produced so that we could sell it in local game stores so YOU could find it!
David contacted and talked to lots and lots of printing companies and we finally landed on Hero Time out of Hong Kong. They sent us the templates and we redesigned and tweaked our initial designs so they fit just right. That took a loooooong time! We added a few details to the board, fixed a few mistakes from the 1st edition (oops!) and had to reimagine a few of the components that we couldn’t quite get this time around. The game looks AWESOME and we are super excited about getting it into your hands.
We were hoping to have the new game for the Strong Tower Gaming Convention, September 6-8, but it looks like it won’t be coming until the middle of September, at the earliest. However… we have more news!
We will have a Pizza With a Fork merchandise table at Strong Tower! We have t-shirts, mugs, travel forks, and lots of other merch that we can’t wait for you to check out. Our newsletter will be coming out soon with lots more information. We hope to see you at Strong Tower Gaming Convention in September!
