Hearts of Wulin – Blog Post and The Gauntlet Podcast

Hello! Many folks have been asking for more information about Hearts of Wulin ever since we aired our Favorite Games of 2018 podcast. Well, we aim to please…

Lowell Francis wrote a blog post discussing the three mechanical pillars of the game. It’s a great read and a terrific introduction to what the game is about. It can be found right here:

We also have an interview hitting The Gauntlet Podcast feed today. This interview originally appeared in the Pocket-Sized Play feed, but it’s a really interesting and informative discussion, and we wanted as many people as possible to hear it, and so we have cross-posted it. Check it out here:

The Gauntlet Forums are coming!

The Gauntlet Forums are coming!

The Gauntlet Forums are coming!

Many folks have been asking where The Gauntlet is going to go once G+ is gone. The answer we have landed on is opening our own forums. At the end of the day, The Gauntlet is always at its best when we have our own platform and are not subject to the vicissitudes of a large corporation (see: the many dramas involving Meetup and Gauntlet Hangouts which forced us to just design our own damn RSVP system).

The forums are not quite ready, but trust that they will be up and running by the time the G+ closure takes place in April.

So watch this space. We’ll have more to say about The Gauntlet Forums soon! If you have any questions, just post them here. Cc: Shane Liebling

Design Diary: The Between 03

Today on The Gauntlet Blog, I have the third entry of my Design Diary series about my in-development game The Between. In this entry, I talk about the development of the Overscene, one of the most distinctive (and novel) elements of my game.
