There is a group of Lurkers that I'm designing a game with, and we are almost to a point where we are going to be looking for some playtest groups, especially groups that are
1.) Not local. To simulate people purchasing the product, and not having the designers at their beck and call.
2.) People I can trust. I need people that I can feel readily confident that they aren't going to break the NDA, and leak it.
3.) people that have a group of friends that would be willing to play test a card game. Not a card game like Magic, or L5R, or something like that. A card game like Poo, Nuts, Infernal Contraption, Lunch Money.
4.) You need to be open to the idea of a comical take on animal violence. PG-13 humor abounds, as well as the comedic violence with animals. So, if you think that PETA is a good thing, this is probably not the game for you.
If this sounds like something you would like to do, please let me know. I can't guarantee that everyone who says "yes" will be included, but I will try and get as many people involved as we as a group can agree is needed to make this a viable playtest.
And then, hopefully this summer, you will be able to find it on Kickstarter. We are hoping to get this game out this year, and have another game ready by the end of the year, and then another game ready in the first quarter of 2014. This should gives us a slate of products to take to what should be our first Origins booth in June of 2014.
