Telepathic update Fri Oct 25 2019

It's the 7th day of the Telepathic crowd sale and we're at 68 copies! That's 2/3 of the way to a whopping 41% discount of $10! (And only 2 copies away from a $7 discount!)

If you know me, you know I'm in the last semester of a masters degree in human-computer interaction, aka user experience design. I've shopped Telepathic to a few publishers, but I decided to self-publish and sell it this semester as a project to add to my portfolio (see https://ckixd.com). So my goals for the sale are as follows:

  • Get this game in the hands of all the people who enjoyed playtesting it and asked, "When can I get my own copy?"
  • Earn enough to cover the costs of the playtest and review copies of the game that I bought myself.
  • Sell enough copies of the game now, and over time, to establish some legitimacy as a product designer and developer.

I've learned a lot in the process of turning this idea into a product, and I'm still learning. Thanks for helping me along the way.

If you know someone that might enjoy a small puzzly cooperative game, please tell them about this sale before it ends on October 30th. You'll be doing a favor for them, for me, and for yourself: Win-Win-Win! Let's see if we can get to 100 copies at a $10 discount!

Thanks again!

PS: And hey, if you know anybody who might soon be looking for a UX designer / analyst / programmer who loves cooperative games, let me know, okay? Thanks!
