From the Middle - Talking (Rookie Mage) Games with Jordan McLaughlin
from From the Middle · host OddPods Media
#181. Have you ever wanted to get into the mind of a game creator? Jordan McLaughlin is the founder of Rookie Mage Games, a company producing clever card games for friends and family of all ages. We take some tangents including horror films, pizza, and mashed potatoes, but the bulk of this episode is us picking the creative brain behind some masterpieces of story telling. The beauty, as we find, behind the story telling of his games is the freedom for the player to create a visual world inside their own imagination as they relate to others to try to solve mysteries and stash nuts. We also get into some of the logistics behind producing games including manufacturing, troubleshooting, and navigating kickstarter. We know we have more in common to chat with Jordan about than one episode can hold, but Jordan, thank you for this one and we look forward to meeting you again and seeing what the future of Rookie Mage Games has in store.Rookie Mage Games - https://www.rookiemage.com/Rookie Mage Amazon Store - https://www.amazon.com/stores/RookieMageGames/page/08B0814E-C32F-4933-8225-C6D12072B18A?ref_=ast_blnMain Landing Page - https://linktr.ee/fromthemidpodVOICE MAIL!
