We spent last weekend at a cabin in northern Germany to playtest NEON HOPE! While Torben made vegetarian chilli and pizza to keep us at full endurance, Francesco, Dominik, and our core playtesters fought for a better future. #boardgames #cardgames #solarpunk #cyberpunk #gamedesign

SPIEL - SATURDAY! 🌟 Here's a video that condenses our 12+ hour day at the halls into 90 seconds and Youtube decided to grace with this terrible cover image. 🤣

We talked to @hopefulgames.bsky.social for an hour and they showed us how Neon Hope is coming along. It's an exciting storytelling card game (think Arkham Horror LCG) and it's not afraid to get political in its story and fluff texts.

You can still late pledge! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hop...
