Ok let’s start with the fact that I was wrong. I left out all the non-port NPCs in my calculations and when I included them the total was over 350 characters. What was a hard task just became much harder. Luckily, the lighter tone of Sea of Legends provides some fun options on how to reuse NPCs.

Back to doing some design work on Sea of Legends :) Wrestling with NPC count. Our Adventure Forge authoring tool really handles NPC relationships well, so we want to lean into that. My first cut arrived at 250 unique NPCs, way too many for our budget. So working on how to reduce or combine them

The last several days I’ve been lost in the land of deep spreadsheet doing forecasts. There is a certain joy of working in complex spreadsheets, they develop their own sort of emergent behaviors which can be satisfying in its own strange way.

Yesterday we did the Tomb Raider escape room experience in Seattle. It was a blast, the environments were great and the puzzles were balanced right for the audience they hope to attract. But I have to say that doing an escape room with a family of game designers is always a unique experience :)

Thought I would start on BlueSky on Thanksgiving by mentioning the many people I am thankful for; my amazing wife and kids (all six of them, 3 boys + 3 new daughters), the thousands of creative people I’ve had the pleasure to work with, and the millions of players who give our work meaning.
