Sophie’s making some demo tables for the wonderful Exit 23 Games. When we get a chance we’ll be doing a blog post about it.
We’ve been a bit quiet as we’ve been juggling looking after our 4 year old and still working from home. We’re slowly getting there with the ‘new normal’. However the cats are thrilled to have us home all the time. Look at Hera, you can tell she’s just jumping for joy with our presence! Show us your happy or not so happy pets!

Hello! We know (from experience) that being cooped up in your house is a struggle which is why we're going to be running an online Tabletop Game Design Course! Sign up here: https://buff.ly/312KxmD
With more and more people self-isolating, we're all learning to adjust! We're now taking turns working and looking after our daughter, which is a blast from the past - it's how we worked when Needy Cat first started (and we had a *lot* less work on the go).
So here's a question. Last year we had a go at running our game design courses online. We had a small response, but I'm wondering if it would be a bit more popular now that people are looking for things to do from home?
...So, if we were to relaunch the series, would you be interested in taking part? Each one would be a live seminar run by one of us, and you'd be able to ask questions throughout. You'd also get digital copies of the course materials, and access to a video of the session. It'd probably be in the £20-£30 price range for a 2 hour seminar.
We'd look at covering a range of topics including our design process, how to get a game idea off the ground, writing effective rules, prototyping methods, working with freelancers, and so on.
Let us know if this would interest you by posting a comment below. If enough people fancy it, we'll see what we can do!

So anyone who's seen the Robot Fight Club Kickstarter campaign over the last couple of days will know that it's pretty much stalled. After a lot of deep thought (and no small amount of data gathering), we've decided to cancel the campaign for now, and relaunch it in the near future.
You can read all about it in our latest update:

... Thanks to everyone for their support. You've all been fantastic!
Now we're gonna focus on making some awesome improvements, and catch our breath. This is a positive thing, and we can't wait to get the campaign back online! :)
