game advice

Print vs PDF

Howdy!

So, say you're wanting to start out in all this indie RPG publshing type behaviour and are thinking of a game, got some art and writing together and want to produce your excellent and well honed product to an eager market place.

Is there room out there for another publisher? Are PDF documents worth it or do they sink without a trace? Is hard copy the way to go? How about both? Or will that just limit sales of both media and confuse the issue?

[Cold City] Open & Closed Games

So, I've been working on a few bits and pieces for my so-called Cold City Companion. A big part of this is a very expanded section of advice and guidance on running games of Cold City. Something I really want to focus on is what I have termed 'open' and 'closed' games.

My initial notes on these are below and any advice and thoughts you might have, either based on play experience (in Cold City or any other games) or just based on what is written here, would help a lot. Bear in mind, these are the equivalent of some hastily scribbled notes and may contain some advice that other may think is a bit daft!
