43. Numbers Hide Everything
In this episode Hannah and Evan chat about their honest expectations and secret hopes for the latest Kickstarter campaign. What do the numbers mean, and why is it so hard to talk about money?
42. The Episode Before the Kickstarter
We’ve had seven years to think of a good pitch for our game. Now, we’re Kickstarting Questlandia again and we’re finally figuring out the pitch that feels right. In this episode we talk about the impending Kickstarter for a new edition of Questlandia, and just how hard it is to find a genuine voice when speaking to the internet.
The Questlandia updated and expanded edition Kickstarter is live! You can check the campaign out here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/turtlebun/questlandia-updated-and-expanded
41. Resist the Urge to Fill Negative Space
We haven’t had a deadlined project in a minute, but now it’s time for a deadlined project again. How do we incorporate that work without letting un-deadlined projects slide? How does anyone not just fill the negative space?
