Every year in celebration of the spooky time of the year and in the spirit of handing out candy, we hand out a free PDF game or expansion. This year we present THE HORSE FILES. This was a backer-exclusive supplement for Partners during the kickstarter in 2021, but now we're giving it out to the world! Take on the role of horse detectives and plumb deep into the world of horse vice and villainy. This is the world's only horse detective RPG, but did you know we also publish the world's only Cyberpunk Horse RPG? It's true! More HeistsWe're definitely not the only people making heist games, though. If you love heists, you might want to check out this game One Last Score crowdfunding now. It's not a story game like The Score but it is by Aussie designers and the artwork is amazing. And speaking of The Score, we also now have versions of the rules designed specifically for vision accessibility and electronic reading devices, thanks to the amazing people at Vision Australia. Are there any other games in our line that we could make more accessible to disabled folks? Please let us know and we will do what we can! We are also now in partnership with some software designers that may lead to a fully web-based version of The Score you can play anywhere in the world! Stay tuned for more on that! And as we said last month, everyone who backed the kickstarter should have their copy of The Score now. If you haven't, please reach out. We are also now in the process of getting copies into stores in Australia and around the world. If you see one in the wild, snap a pic and send it to us! We also want to get The Score at every convention we can in 2024. We're building our calendar right now so if you have an event or store in your city or town and would like us there - or would just like to run our games (any of them!) get in touch! We will send you all sorts of support goodies and cover expenses! The "Tin Starmy" of convention and demo volunteers is growing faster and faster and we'd love you to join! You can find out more on our Discord, where we also release sneak peaks of games, run playtests and give you the inside scoop of day to day design. And if you want to grab any of our games you don't yet own, please order within the next two weeks, so we can guarantee delivery by Christmas! Jamming in the MoonlightAnd speaking of Halloween, this Tuesday night is Tabletop Tuesday, our usual playtesting night at Game Plus in Sydney (always the last Tuesday of the month). Since it falls on Halloween we're turning it into a two hour Halloween game jam in partnership with the podcast/vidcast From Scratch 2 Shelf (featuring Tin Star president Steve Dee). You'll have two hours to make a game based on a revealed theme. You don't need to bring anything - you'll be split into teams, handed all the craft and cardboard you need, and you'll take home your finished game in its own box! Plus we'll have celebrity judges and prizes! So please come out. Whatever stage of your game design journey you are at, a jam is a great way to learn and have fun at the same time, and meet your fellow designers!
If you are looking to take your journey further, we also offer consulting services here at Tin Star Games. Steve Dee has been working in the industry for 25 years and has won several awards for his design work, as well as having his games published widely. Invest in a review of your work and get a plan to go forward - contact us today.
