It’s a game played with minted metal coins. My design for Pieces of Eight is a half-exception. Lots of my credits list is licensed games - Horus Heresy, Doctor Who Time Clash, my development work on The Lord of the Rings RPG and the Dragon Age RPG - and so those obviously start with an existing IP and adapt it to the needs of the format. I, personally, almost always start with ideas.
When you start designing, do you look at components and try to create a game, or do you start with an idea and then use component to fit your idea? I want to spread that to as many people as will listen. That, and my unshakable belief that designing games is an awesome thing to do, I guess. So that’s what made me want to publish it, first and foremost.
It’s not just encouragement and advice, it’s a collection of things you can actually pick up and make a game with. The White Box is maybe even better than our previous Gameplaywright titles - books, all of them - because the other components in the box are so effective at promoting the idea and the activity of games. Well, Jeremy Holcomb is the true creator of The White Box, but when I saw it, I thought it was the perfect project for Gameplaywright, which is a side project that Will Hindmarch and I operate, whose goal is to publish non-fiction about the intersection of games, stories, and the work of creating those things. What inspired you to create The White Box? So: Twenty years of a little bit of everything. I’ve done writing, design, and consulting work for twenty or more publishers, taught game design, won an ENnie (for Eternal Lies), was nominated for a Diana Jones Award (for Pieces of Eight), and won’t shut up about how great games are. I’ve worked in staff (or staff-like) positions for Atlas Games, Decipher, Fantasy Flight Games, Green Ronin, and a pair of folded digital game publishers. I wound up as the line developer for Ars Magica in 1998, published my first board and card games about that time, and just kept at it. I got my first paid freelance gig with The Unspeakable Oath in 1996 or so, and managed to get a job at Atlas Games about that same time as a part-timer, writing PR and doing promotions. What is your experience in the gaming industry? I was able to ask Jeff Tidball eight questions to find out more about this project. However, Jeff Tidball and Jeremy Holcomb decided that they wanted to spur some creativity amongst potential board game designers and created The White Box on Kickstarter now. However, there isn’t a standard set of components for a prototype. Indie studios have taken off with all the resources available.

RPG Maker software has allowed novices to create their own story and gameplay. Not long ago a new texture enhancement was released for the original Deus Ex. Epic Games holds contests for those who can create something unique with their Unreal Engine. It’s not uncommon for modders to make it into the video game industry.
