The more rules you have the more each one needs to justify it's existence. Too many rules thoughtlessly added is just noise and no signal.

Black Hats isn't my first game, just the first one worth taking it all the way. 5 years of design, testing, redesign, then finding a pathway to self-publish.

These are the first 5 copies off the assembly line.
I'm so damn proud it's finally ready.

"Use your best viruses to buy us time, we have to get into Plague's file and copy the worm."

#BlackHats was mostly designed to trick players into saying sentences as close as possible to dialog from Hackers(1995)

You have 20 slots in your cyberdeck, bring the best! #indiegames #tcg #hackers

Had a blasting making this one. An outrageously fast game of Black Hats. We may have forgotten to pull the older more broken version of some cards. ๐Ÿ˜… #indiedev #indiegames #boardgames

Word from @pandagm.com is Black Hats has entered mass production. Officially not vaporware! #indiedev #indiepublisher #indiegames

If you're a cyberpunk enthusiast of analogue games you know you want a copy for yourself: gamefound.com/en/projects/...

Year 2197: Post ww3 video games are now widely considered to have been a mistaken branch of game design, chess has been replaced with shogi world wide, and nature begins to heal

"The funding goal displayed on Gamefound is symbolic" ๐Ÿคฎ

My Gamefound goal was extremely real. Lying to funders isn't a requisite of designing a successful campaign, even if it has become the norm for a lot of companies.

Stealing data not your thing? ๐Ÿ™ˆ Check out jeffisepic

Their attack power is only 1, but they enhance your whole crew's power against runners in their subnet AND score you a bonus victory point if when that runner is disconnected via attack.

jeffisepic indeed #TCG #GameDev #IndieDev #CardGame

I think it was Carl Sagan who said if you want to make a game from scratch, you must first invent the solar system

I found one when I was walking my dog one time just sitting on someone's lawn with FREE taped to it. Nothing beats the sound of a CRT turning on to my brain. Enjoy it, that's a beauty
