Every person I know that has played Demonschool has loved it. Plus, this quote by its creative director is all you need to know to support it.

A quote from Brandon Sheffield of Necrosoft Games. In it, he dunks on Generative AI in a pretty impeccable way.

In that case quebra-cabeças would work equally well for both!

In PT-PT I’d say “cada quebra-cabeças tem apenas uma solução”

This trailer gave me goosebumps. Netrunner is one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had - and the only "lifestyle" game I got really into, despite trying loads.

I have a ton of nostalgia for the Gameboy in general and started doing that at one point but got frustrated when I discovered about the save batteries, which have to be replaced and soldered. Fortunately, emulation has come a long way since then!

I've been buying my favorite movies on DVD as well. They're inexpensive in second hand, I can lend them to people and the extras are a delight.

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Thank you! On the first versions I ran into design issues I couldn't solve, so I eventually shelved it. It's exciting to approach it with more experience and a new range of solutions.

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

I'm making a new prototype for a game idea I've had 13 years ago. Every few years I pick it back up and restart it because the theme makes me laugh but it's quite ambitious design-wise.

You know, sometimes you should meet your heroes, as a treat.

Maybe it's a jumpscare targeted at game developers 😅

I don't think the copies sold would be a fair comparison. Root has deeply asymmetric factions, expansions with more, a challenging rulebook and a living rulebook.

010

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Absolutely! And it's a game where the players can't skip the rules for the other factions because they have to keep an eye on them.

Buying a 3D printer I won't use to make components for tabletop games I'll never play play with friends I don’t have.

Root's presentation looks fantastic and very inviting but it can easily mislead players into thinking it will be a simple game. It's not! If you're struggling to learn Root, I think the digital version does a good job. It lets you focus on one faction at a time.

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Just saw someone saying the rules for Root are very clear and not that hard to learn so I went to check to see how many Rules threads there are on its BGG forum. 2070

One of the regulars at a local board game group always brings one of these. It's been more useful than I expected!

The Yakuza/Like a Dragon series does something like this. Games are mostly set in cities which are just a few blocks and are packed with content and life.

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Wow! I find those really interesting. Are they something you'd like to pick back up again? Personally, I'm finding that nowadays the added experience is helping me solve most (hopefully all) of the design challenges that blocked me back then.

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

That's a similar situation to this project. I hope you could still make sense of your notes from back then!

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Same thing happened to me! At the time I took to a point where I considered it finished. Submitted it to a contest where the winner would get the game published. Got tied for 1st place but they picked the other one. Pitched it to publishers along with my other games but never had any takers.

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Wow! If you wouldn't mind sharing, is the main obstacle a technical limitation, design challenge or purely lack of time?

Manuel Correia @gamesbymanuel.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

That sounds cool! In a way it reminds me of Container with the ships and players docking at each other's ports to buy stuff.
