Quotes (from this video)
  • I'm trying to make a remodel about board gaming and I'm I don't think I'm doing a good job, but I'm trying. And isn't that what counts Jamie?
  • So, it's a twofold sort of thing, which I really, really like and I will be buying that game. Thank you for costing me more money when we do this podcast Jamie.
  • What is your approach mentally? What are you thinking? What is the first thing you think of when you're making an IP-based game? How do I make this into a game?
  • And again, I think you've talked about this in one of your blogs, but again, I think it's worth repeating people that didn't watch or that don't watch your design diaries or that haven't watched all your videos. First of all, go back and watch them. They're great.
