Indie game studio, creator of the storytelling games King of Dragon Pass https://a-sharp.com/kodp/, Six Ages and Six Ages 2 https://sixages.com (all set in Glorantha). Thousand Hells https://a-sharp.com/1000hells/ is in development.
Today I removed one of the earliest actions from Thousand Hell’s tactical narrative game, intended to be a tradeoff. In practice it was too hard to visualize the cost. Pretty sure it was in the very first prototype… #KillYourDarlings
Our publisher is looking for a few playtesters for #ThousandHells — check out their Discord https://discord.gg/kitfoxgames for details.
Heather: “I think H-788 is one of the more entertaining bugs we’ve had—team member dies and their friend we didn’t actually recruit appears out of nowhere to mourn them!” #BugOfTheDay

#KoDP tip / #SixAges tip: Remember that nothing is certain — you may pick a course of action but your clan leaders could fail to execute it (they could be out-bargained, out-argued, or out-fought).

Searching for #ThousandHells placeholder art today, I remembered Serra Pelada from the movie Powaqqatsi. (The soundtrack by Philip Glass is cool too.)
BTW, none of the placeholder art is “AI”-generated, and I’m marking it as placeholder in the game art.
To celebrate Sacred Time, our games are on sale for a limited time, on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/curator/37604253 and the App Store https://apps.apple.com/us/developer/a-sharp-llc/id335536188. King of Dragon Pass and the two Six Ages games are timeless narrative strategy games set in the mythic world of Glorantha. #KoDP #SixAges
Had the first external playtest of #ThousandHells (which I probably should have done much earlier even though the game still isn’t at Alpha). Got a lot of useful feedback but also this:
“I just found myself starting a new game, even though I’m supposed to be working.”
