Will your actions shepherd these dozen planets to safety, or perhaps you just want to see the galaxy burn? Whatever you choose, every decision matters in Hyperdrive Odyssey.

Coming to Kickstarter on the 27th of May. May our star crossed paths meet there!

Oh yeah they look great!

Bonus points if you can tell where these colourful minis come from!

A single die in the box lid (on my lap) gives just enough variance to keep an exciting amount of uncertainty to both the enemy behaviour and the attack results.

With multiple upgrades paths and characters to try, this puzzly game still has a lot to explore.

.The central puzzle becomes a deck of four (!?!) cards, which at first flip over, and then get discarded when used again. Trying to complete your objectives and defeat the enemies before your deck (the character's energy) is entirely depleted.

I was inspired by @boxedmeeples.bsky.social and quite a few others on YouTube.

It's great isn't it! You've reminded me I need to print my own rulebook for it, the German is a little beyond me.

Hi! Yes that was @harperrob.bsky.social 's game.

Yeah it looks much more similar to something like the "Dice Tower Essentials" line this time around.

I tried to play Earth for the first time on BGA and had absolutely no idea what was going on, even after watching a how-to-play.

Do you have an established practice when starting a new design?

They've done a few partnerships like this before, since their Monikers expansion.

When you say it like that, it seems pretty wild that you generally don't get six months worth of driving out of a car.
