What happens when a toy company walks away from your invention? For Scott Pease, it became the opportunity to finally build the game he'd dreamed about from the very beginning. In this episode of Crowdfunding Nerds, Andrew and Sean sit down with former Neversoft director and Snapships co-creator Scott Pease to explore the incredible journey from video game development to toy invention to crowdfunding success. Scott shares lessons learned from working on franchises like Guitar Hero and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, why scope creep can destroy projects, and how years of iteration eventually led to Snapships Tactics, a customizable space combat game built around creativity and strategic play.
