We got thoughtful and likely actionable feedback on our game. Now, can I get a hint as to how 5.8, 5.8, and 4.8 out of 7 should feel? C’mon, fess up—do we start at 4.0 by just not misspelling “rule book”? 021

Mike Range @mikerange.bsky.social · 09/02/2026🎲✂️ I remember way back—ten days ago—the excitement we felt submitting our first game to the cardboard edison contest. We are pretty proud of that game. While waiting for feedback, we got the first rough prototype of a second game to the table, and the feeling is… what’s the opposite of excitement? 040
