<p>A lot has happened since my latest post. Let&#8217;s do a quick recap, shall we?</p>
<p>Multiuniversum &#8211; Project: Cthulhu&#8217;s Kickstarter campaign was very successful. We asked for $7000 but our backers contributed close to $19.500 USD, funding it 278%!</p>
<p>Shortly thereafter it was printed and shipped to Essen Spiel, where it was officially released.</p>
<p>Last year I went to Essen for the first time and spent four days pitching my games to publishers. This time I was there to demo my first published game! For three whole days I taught the game to as many visitors as I could.</p>

<p>I have a lot of respect for anyone who&#8217;s demoing. The halls are very loud and you have to be even louder, but without sounding like you&#8217;re shouting! My voice held on during the first day, but by the end of the third I could barely speak. My advice? Drink plenty of water.</p>
<p>My demoing gig was cut short due to Multiuniversum and the expansion selling out! It was extremely rewarding, and it gave me the chance to see the other halls and say &#8220;Hi!&#8221; to friends.</p>
<p>After Spiel there have been a lot of new reviews and at the moment Multiuniversum is currently on 2320 in the BGG Rank.</p>
<p>The next print run will feature the rules in Spanish as well. Muy Bueno!</p>
<p>Meanwhile my new project has been announced:</p>

<p><a href="https://superhotgame.com/card-game/">SUPERHOT The Card Game</a> is an adaptation of the popular videogame <a href="https://superhotgame.com/">SUPERHOT</a>. Its core mechanics are based on Agent Decker plus the concept of &#8220;Time moves when you do&#8221;! As a big fan of the videogame I&#8217;m doing my best to do it justice.</p>
<p>Speaking of Agent Decker, both the game and the rulebook have been updated for clarity and consistency due to player feedback. <a href="https://gr9yfox.itch.io/agent-decker">You can download it here</a>.</p>
