[PREVIEW] Design Session #68: The Hero, Part 1

One final podcast for 2025, to ring in The Month of Threadspinner!On this episode, we get serious about how quickly the deadline to a playable first draft of the game is getting, and get cracking on getting this bad boy ready for primetime. We start by working out the details of The Hero, one of the first playbooks—sorry, patterns—we came up with for this game, and in so doing identify the blank spots we still need to fill in.And because there's still a lot of blank spots, we also resolve to (try to) put up a new Design Session every single week in January to get this thing over the finish line!Edited by LukeThis episode is possible thanks to all $3 and up Patreon subscribers!
