So December was a busy month – and it’s still here, believe it or not! Plenty had changed since my last exhibition in July – I was starting to hand illustrate most of my assets, I had removed and rehashed big sections that I had shown to previous audiences, and I had more puzzles to show.

I was also exhibiting to a broader audience – from VR/AR to Board Games, Game Books and Console/retro games. As a whole, these events allowed me to understand a broad range of expectations – both as an AR game and as a gamebook.The feedback, then, was even greater than I could have ever hoped to get. Coming Home fits such a niche area – and the general consensus from the two events were very different, I have to say.

I thoroughly enjoyed the conventions, even if I did have very little sleep before both of them! I got to try out some great card games and indie video games, meet great people and managed to get in a bit of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and ARMS! There was even a video game music orchestra, which is right up my alley!

Another highlight was Ian Livingstone’s talk on the history of Games Workshop and Fighting Fantasy – so inspiring and heart warming! I also managed to get a Gamebook signed by him as well!
I’m planning for some events coming soon, so do stay tuned for more updates as they come! Hope you had a great holiday/day(s) in general!
