The Bits with Joe & Nick - Episode 1: Finding Games, Designer Pitches, Games We Wished We Published

[@matt_stowball]

This is my favourite boardgame video series now

[@MallorysBoardGamesAndBaking]

As a new game designer that has just started my piching journey, it is so useful to hear your perspectives on pitching and publishing! Really appreciate you two taking the time to record these conversations!

This was incredibly informative & quite entertaining. I think videos like this make a real difference and can have a really positive impact on folks who aren’t familiar with publisher’s perspectives. And I think that was a really nice unique top 5 topic. And the thought of Bitewing making nice accessible editions of all the El Dorado series in one place would be a dream!

This was an awesome first episode!! Will definitely be tuning in to future episodes 😊

[@GameMarketWest]

Really appreciate both of your insights!

[@BanterandBoards]

I’m no game designer, just merely a content creator but this is really insightful as to what publishers are looking for and I genuinely enjoyed it! Looking forward to more!

[@tablegolfassociation]

Your topic is our focus for next year, thanks for this!

[@matthew.strout]

Great talk!

[@GenesisMediusFin]

This is fantastic, and so insightful. As publishers, your sharing of your thoughts is so important for us designers to hear! Not only that, both of your companies are fantastic companys. Thank you for sharing! Already waiting for the next episode, and will definitely listen to this again (:

This is awesome!! Very excited for this series. As a content creator and game designer myself, love to hear from the ppl behind the dopest games out there. Love all of AllPlay stuff and I’m very very excited about Bebop. Need to get my hands on a copy!

I think I would struggle to tell the influential games for many of my designs, especially on the spot. The impetus usually comes from either the theme (maybe I read a book that turned me onto a topic) or a particular kind of experience I want to build for (say a family game best played at 5 that strategy gamers will love). It's not really ego - I've played a lot of games and all of that goes into my work. But I do kind of intentionally shy away from very obvious "x by way of y" approaches. That's not to knock that approach, it's just not quite my style!
