I’m thinking about splitting some of my old games into 2 separate games. Think of it like you have this place of work where you are good at the job, if you were in this other area maybe you wouldn’t be as good. Games can be like that too. The game, the mechanics & the environment can just not work.

It might just be trying the parts of the game that I like in other games or with other rules until it gets to the state that it works or flows better. Or that’s the thought that I had a little bit earlier today.

I assume we’re talking about E Races Time? It does sound like there’s a lot going on and that you have several good parts on your hands

Not quite. I'm splitting up Well Informed. It was a checking out library or bookstore books game. It had clever/playful, play on words flavor on top of more of mechanical number set collection/matching game. The playful side is going to a party game; the set collection is to a mathy space game.

Those both sound like fun! Have fun with them!!

Thanks. I'll try!!

Though the mathy space game, I'm trying to reduce some of the math burden by introducing set collection. So that may be more of a rework. But yeah with Well Informed, I felt like I was trying balance 2 different things. I liked these things, but it felt like one was going to have overtake the other.
