The State of Games, Ep. 126: The One About Unpub Prime

Posted by dicehateme on Thursday, March 30, 2017 · I Value Your Opinion - Leave a Comment

For seven years now, game designers and plucky playtesters alike have gathered together at the Unpublished Games Festival. Once a small affair held in Dover, Delaware, Unpub has grown exponentially in the last three years, expanding to the Baltimore Convention Center and drawing huge crowds. The fundamentals and fun have not changed over the years, though; Unpub is still the best place for designers to make their unpublished creations the best they can be, and for playtesters to try out the next Big Thing before it hits the shelves!

Important things mentioned on the podcast:

My Father’s Work

Fate of the Elder Gods

Favelas

The Library is Burning!

Storm Chasers

Song of Azathoth

Compounded Lab Notes

Fantasy Meeple Fight

Dubai

VivaJava

So maybe you like what you see, and you wanna tell me, but you're shy and won't comment. I understand. It's cool. Maybe you've got a tip for a hot new game and you want me to take a look. Or maybe - just maybe - you're a big game company and want to advertise on the site, or offer me a six-figure salary. Whatever the occasion, if you wanna drop me a line, send it to my email address and we'll talk. No big whoop.
