Tasty Minstrel Games has announced a new game they'll be releasing in the next few months, Ghostbusters: The Board Game has an official release date, and Board Game Quest has posted their nominees for the best games of 2014.
Fans can now vote on the fractions that will appear in Smash Up's 2016 expansion, microgame Coup is available in the app store, and Hasbro has updated the careers featured in The Game of Life.
This month Calliope Games has launched their ambitious Titan Series, which they've been talking about for the past several months. It is also the month for card games, with lots of great ones seeking funding.
So you've been working on a game idea for years — writing and rewriting rules, sweating over just the right theme, working endlessly on the graphic design, scrounging components from other games, cutting and taping and cobbling together pieces and parts, and then playtesting with family and friends over and over and over again. You finally get it to the point where you think it can become a real, live product. Out there in the marketplace, for the whole world to buy. The ultimate proving ground.
