For many of us, this is "launch season" for our toy and game products. And even though this podcast has given plenty of valuable information about launching a successful crowdfunding campaign, there is always more to learn. So The Toy Coach is back at it, asking questions and getting answers about launching a product on Kickstarter, but this time...it's with a focus on games!
This week, The Toy Coach is joined by educator and Game Designer, Joe Slack, to learn all about his current Kickstarter project Relics of Rajavihara. Joe stops in to share his inspiring journey of launching a game to Kickstarter and funding it in just 4 days! This episode shines a light on the importance of building buzz around your idea for 6 months to a year before your launch. There is also a focus on the value and methods of finding a supportive online community to provide valuable feedback throughout your product development. Joe also shares a bit of his game design process and leaves aspiring game designers with a few words of wisdom.
Ok toy people, let's do this! Pop your earbuds in and take a listen.
