00:00:15,310 --> 00:00:17,670
Hello and welcome to the Weekly 
Scroll Podcast. 

2
00:00:17,670 --> 00:00:20,430
My name is Ryan and joining me 
today is Fiverr. 

3
00:00:20,430 --> 00:00:21,470
How you doing this morning 
Fiverr? 

4
00:00:22,150 --> 00:00:23,070
I'm good. 
How are you? 

5
00:00:24,270 --> 00:00:25,550
You know, just I'm getting 
there. 

6
00:00:25,550 --> 00:00:28,230
I did find my coffee eventually 
and I'll be sipping on it and 

7
00:00:28,230 --> 00:00:30,840
then we'll be good. 
Cool, cheers. 

8
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,520
I have water in a chainsaw man 
cup so you know there. 

9
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:36,200
You go. 
Are you? 

10
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,000
Are you? 
Are you a reader or a watcher 

11
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,480
and or both? 
A watcher and if anyone spoils 

12
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:45,480
it for me, I'll cry. 
I will not. 

13
00:00:45,480 --> 00:00:48,840
I'm a reader, so I will not. 
I will, I will keep my mouth 

14
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,200
shut. 
So, so fiber. 

15
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,640
We, we met recently at a deputy 
con. 

16
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,800
But for those that don't know 
you, who who the heck is fiber? 

17
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,320
What would people know you for? 
I'm just a little guy. 

18
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,880
No, I, I made a skirmish game 
called Snack 28. 

19
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,840
I wish that was the thing that I
was currently best known for. 

20
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:14,080
But I think what still tops it 
is I was the person who painted 

21
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,640
the ice cream nights in the 
Golden Demon case. 

22
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,520
That's what people ask me a lot.
They're like, was that you? 

23
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,680
I'm like, yes, that was so. 
You can you can be two things. 

24
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,880
I can be two things, both of 
them candy related. 

25
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,120
Yeah. 
And yeah, again, we met at 

26
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,280
Depticon. 
I think you were probably the 

27
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,640
first person I even saw Depticon
because I rolled in early to 

28
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,640
pick up my my print copies of my
game. 

29
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,480
And you were hanging out waiting
to pick up the print copies of 

30
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:41,720
your game. 
Yeah. 

31
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,840
Which is right here. 
Printed from. 

32
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,240
Yeah. 
In fact, we printed from Grub, 

33
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,840
Grub Press, Flatulent in the 
Fool, Shane the Blind Man. 

34
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,800
And then I was like, oh, I 
you're awesome. 

35
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,960
I love your game. 
Can I please have all of your 

36
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,480
miniatures? 
So for those watching, I have 

37
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,480
almost all of them. 
I feel like I bought the all 

38
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,440
sorts one from Ramshackle a 
while ago, but next time I put 

39
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,720
an order in, I'm getting the 
bear berserker and obviously 

40
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,040
getting the cupcake colossus. 
Awesome. 

41
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,880
But Oh yeah. 
Then it was like, hey, Oh yeah, 

42
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,000
we're going to show those off 
when we do the review later this

43
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,040
week. 
We're going to be reviewing 

44
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,520
snack 28. 
Those that are watching this 

45
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,320
now, we maybe today or tomorrow 
I will put the VOD from when 100

46
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,080
and I played it up on our 
Twitch. 

47
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,680
So you can actually see us play 
Snack 28. 

48
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,280
But I'll be showing off a lot of
the miniatures on the review 

49
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,560
this weekend. 
But yeah, Adept Con, I think 

50
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,840
you're the first person I 
actually get to talk to Adept 

51
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,800
Con about here on the show. 
So how is your Adepticon? 

52
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,680
My Adepticon was great. 
I mean, this was far and away 

53
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,800
like the most, I would say, 
successful Adepticon that I've 

54
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,760
had. 
My New Year's resolution this 

55
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,320
year was just to bet. 
On my my own art. 

56
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,480
Just a little bit more. 
So usually I would be. 

57
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:05,080
Like a little bit hesitant to 
invest money in like getting 

58
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,920
stuff printed to try and sell 
out of my backpack at Adepticon,

59
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:11,040
but I was like, you know what? 
Screw it. 

60
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,200
I've been cautious for a while. 
I'm just going to I'm going to 

61
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,800
do just a little a little step 
more than I usually would. 

62
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:22,800
And I sold out of all of my 
copies of Snack 28 and almost 

63
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,640
all of my miniatures. 
So it did super, super well. 

64
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,320
I had like so many great, like 
business E conversations, I 

65
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,360
guess about people who are like,
yeah, we want to do something 

66
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,840
with Snap 28, which was really 
cool. 

67
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,720
But then also people just like 
seeing friends again and really 

68
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,800
like getting to hang out with 
people and and socialize. 

69
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,280
In in like a way where everybody
is is just chill about 

70
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,720
everything and also not getting 
misgendered constantly was super

71
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,440
cool. 
So the the like group back in 

72
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:01,040
the the grim dark hallway is 
always really chill about that 

73
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,480
stuff. 
And it's just nice to to to be 

74
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,280
in that space for as long as 
possible. 

75
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,400
Yeah, the grim dark alley is 
definitely the place to be. 

76
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,600
You know, if you're part of the 
in Rust, we trust, you know, 

77
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,480
community. 
And it's just so nice to not 

78
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,640
like, it just feels like a 
smaller con within the con. 

79
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:22,000
And it feels so much more open, 
like everyone's just, oh, I'll 

80
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,280
pull up a chair and just do 
whatever I want to do right now 

81
00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:29,080
and everyone's cool with it. 
It feels like being a kid and 

82
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,520
visiting your cousins and like 
your cousins are older and they 

83
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,760
have their cool friends over, 
but instead of like you being 

84
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,880
pushed to like go draw on the 
corner or something, they're 

85
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,760
actually letting you play the 
violin video game too and get 

86
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,440
excited when you like shoot the 
guy. 

87
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,800
That's how it feels. 
It's just like everybody's there

88
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,200
to just like show you their cool
video games that have a good 

89
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,480
time and you feel like everybody
is cooler than you, but 

90
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,800
everybody feels like you're 
cooler than them. 

91
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,800
So everybody's just chilled. 
There's no. 

92
00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,880
Big egos or anything like that? 
Yeah, no, I definitely spent way

93
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,320
more time in the grim dark alley
than I did in the actual 

94
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,000
convention. 
I completely, even if I got to 

95
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,920
go check out all the Golden 
Demon stuff this year, I was 

96
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,920
just down there so much because 
I was running my game a little 

97
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,720
bit, which is really cool. 
And then I think I bought 

98
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,520
everything I wanted to buy on 
the first day and then tried to 

99
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,880
not buy anything else for the 
another four days that it went 

100
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,320
on for like the longest 
convention every year for some 

101
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,920
reason. 
But but it worked out. 

102
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,920
And then also we randomly found 
out because I I was over with 

103
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,760
Adam, we're just talking about 
world champ Gameco. 

104
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,160
And then we randomly found out 
that Shane from girl guard press

105
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,120
and Steve from big boy game time
as well as Anthony. 

106
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,760
We're literally in our duplex so
we didn't find out for the next 

107
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,880
day and the first night both of 
us separately were like, oh we 

108
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,800
can't be too loud at night, we 
don't want to wake up the other 

109
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,320
people. 
And then found out the next day 

110
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,440
that the other people were like 
our friends. 

111
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,560
So like it. 
It worked out really well, which

112
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:58,800
is cool. 
I slept in every day, but I 

113
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,800
think Adam and and Matt were 
like going up and down the 

114
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,880
stairs and hanging out with the 
other side every day and it was 

115
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,480
cool. 
Yeah, Adepticon was a was a 

116
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,560
great times, great time to be 
away. 

117
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,040
And then I immediately had to 
work like 4 more days and got to

118
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,360
take off to go to a brain dead 
fest. 

119
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,080
So I feel like I just had a 
three-week vacation. 

120
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,440
Oh, you. 
Are brain dead. 

121
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:16,840
Too. 
I was, yeah. 

122
00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:19,280
It was really cool. 
Got to a couple of the Hives Cup

123
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:22,640
guys were there when he was 
there. 

124
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,520
Caleb. 
Yeah, Caleb's great, Caleb. 

125
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:32,320
'S great. 232 and others and 
Wizards and Wenches is his 

126
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:33,920
podcast, I think. 
Yeah. 

127
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,000
Absolutely, definitely. 
We got, we're going to cross 

128
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,760
pollinate those a little bit. 
But yeah, super cool guy. 

129
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,360
I met a lot of really cool 
people down there was very, it 

130
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,840
was so LA, it was like one of 
the most LA experiences I've 

131
00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:45,360
ever had. 
But I think I think their heart 

132
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,280
is mostly in the right place and
I hope they do another one. 

133
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,960
And Elijah would put on a very 
good but random DJ set. 

134
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,080
So there was a fun way to run 
the. 

135
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,480
Hard way from My Chemical 
Romance showed up which would 

136
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:02,080
have been crazy for me. 
I was obsessed when I was like 

137
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,040
12. 
Yeah, Gerard Ray was like, I 

138
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,960
think one of the first people 
that rolled in and literally 

139
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,200
went to a couple of booths, like
bought everything, like took 

140
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:09,480
some pictures and left, which is
cool. 

141
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,800
There was a bunch of random 
people like Blake, I don't know 

142
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,840
what his real name is, but the 
curly haired guy from 

143
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,840
Workaholics was there. 
Iffy and Waddy Way was there. 

144
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:19,120
Yeah, from. 
Drop out. 

145
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,280
Yep, he put on one of Witty's 
like little crop teas that was 

146
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,160
way too small for him, but he's 
jacked as fuck. 

147
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,680
So like it just looked good. 
It was interesting, made some 

148
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,720
cool new friends. 
So so yeah, it was cool. 

149
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,000
It was a good time. 
It was cool to have it bump 

150
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,560
right up to Adepticon and 
Adepticon's at a weird time next

151
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,440
year. 
So we'll see what what happens 

152
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,600
with that. 
I guess it's like 2 weeks later 

153
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,080
than normal, but we'll. 
See, they're doing it in April 

154
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,080
for some. 
Reason. 

155
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,200
Which is, I mean, I'll still go,
I'm not gonna not go. 

156
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,160
It's just weird. 
Well, it's weird, but also like 

157
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,440
I, I'm doing like 6 cons this 
year and I'm trying to do even 

158
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,240
more next year. 
Going to see about that PTO. 

159
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,400
But in March there's a ton of 
cons for some reason like Gary 

160
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,040
Con and stuff that are all over 
there, a little bit more TRPG 

161
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,240
related. 
So now that might give me a 

162
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,720
little wiggle room to be able to
do that and then adopt Con. 

163
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,120
We'll see how it goes, but I 
assume you're going to go to 

164
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,800
adopt Con next year. 
Yeah, Adepticon, I'll always be 

165
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,880
at as as many years as I can go 
My my friends always go and I 

166
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,000
don't live too, too far from the
the area, so it's an easy 1 to 

167
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,040
get to you're. 
One of those, you're one of 

168
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,120
those midwesters. 
Every time, every person I run 

169
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,560
into at Adepticon, it's like, 
oh, I'm from Chicago and I'm 

170
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,320
like, God damn it. 
Like why? 

171
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,240
The West Coast is barren for a 
tabletop. 

172
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:32,919
For the most part. 
So. 

173
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,360
That's that's too bad. 
Yeah, it's funny. 

174
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,080
I was talking to some people 
about it and I think it's 

175
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:42,640
because people can just go 
outside like all year round 

176
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,200
instead of being like stuck 
inside in in the cold months. 

177
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,960
So they just do that and I'm 
like, well, I don't. 

178
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,080
So I wish other people would 
just stay inside. 

179
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,200
But snack 28, we played it the 
other day. 

180
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,720
You ran, I think less demos, you
said than the year before, but 

181
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,280
you have a gorgeous board for 
it. 

182
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,800
So for those that have not seen 
it yet, make sure you go back. 

183
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,200
I'll make sure the Internet, 
there's links where, where you 

184
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,800
think they are. 
Look where where things go, 

185
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,080
people. 
But. 

186
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,680
Trust you, use your brains you 
can find. 

187
00:09:11,680 --> 00:09:14,600
It yes you you, you are. 
This will not be your first 

188
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,240
YouTube video. 
Click the links. 

189
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:21,200
But for those that have not been
initiated into the candy cult, 

190
00:09:21,680 --> 00:09:24,800
what is Snack 28 like? 
What makes Snack 28 Snack 28 to 

191
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,840
you? 
Snack 28 is a game that I made 

192
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,080
because I wanted something that 
was as violent as any other war 

193
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,680
game but looked cute. 
So I feel like the cuteness 

194
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:38,200
should not be separated from the
violence. 

195
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,320
That's very quintessential Snack
28. 

196
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,720
But it's a game about people 
made out of food trying to 

197
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:49,160
cannibalize each other. 
It's it's it's my favorite game 

198
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,400
that I've ever made. 
It's also the only game that 

199
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,360
I've ever made, but I put my 
whole heart and soul into it. 

200
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,480
It's it's very low math. 
It's very like rules. 

201
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,920
Easy because I don't. 
I, I don't live for the crunch. 

202
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,200
I can't do complicated equations
and shit like that. 

203
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,720
It just doesn't work for me. 
But I wanted something that was 

204
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,640
fun, had some random elements, 
had some strategy, but was 

205
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,800
actually like, you can read the 
book within, like, you know, a 

206
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,640
couple. 
You can read the rules within a 

207
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,920
couple of minutes and get a 
basic idea of how it works. 

208
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,960
Yeah, and it is. 
I mean it pretty much is 4 up 

209
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,880
with a couple modifiers and move
the monster around based on the 

210
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,640
AI. 
And it was so much fun. 

211
00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:36,560
I Hunter when we played the 
other day had already made his 

212
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:39,120
war band and I didn't mine's 
actually on my board in front of

213
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,480
me. 
I literally just use I had this 

214
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,000
like dry erase board in front of
me. 

215
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,840
I literally created it right on 
stream. 

216
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,520
It just wrote a couple things 
down on here and we were able to

217
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,120
hop in and play, which was which
was really fun and easy. 

218
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,560
And the monster it's make why? 
So what? 

219
00:10:53,560 --> 00:10:56,360
What made you want to put a Pve 
element into it? 

220
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,680
Because that honestly might have
been like my favorite part of 

221
00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:02,800
the game was the times where me 
and Hunter had to decide, OK, am

222
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,200
I gonna hit you or are we gonna 
work together, kill the monster 

223
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,120
first or like, what are we? 
What are we doing? 

224
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,280
So what made you want to put a 
Pve element into into the game? 

225
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,880
Well, originally it was just 
because I wanted to paint and 

226
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,840
design monsters. 
I had the thought that I would 

227
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,760
use some of my. 
Like candy nights in the game, 

228
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,800
they ended up being base size 
far too big for that to work, 

229
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,320
and so that was pivoted. 
But. 

230
00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:35,840
The idea of PVPVE was really 
just because when you are like 

231
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:41,440
starting a big war game like the
first tabletop game that I 

232
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,160
really. 
Tried to play was Warhammer and 

233
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,800
that was a big mistake. 
It's too freaking. 

234
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,840
It's it's a bad place to start, 
but. 

235
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:55,280
It's hard to know like what 
you're the goal is in Warhammer,

236
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,720
Like who should I be attacking? 
Should I be prioritizing 

237
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,240
objectives? 
But like if it's like, OK, 

238
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,560
you've got three guys, they have
three guys. 

239
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:09,120
There is also a big threat that 
like adds just enough in my mind

240
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,400
like randomness and chaos so you
can understand what all the 

241
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,640
objectives are because the way 
you win always is by being the 

242
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,440
last guy alive and the monster 
can win and your opponent can 

243
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,880
win as well. 
But like that was just enough 

244
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,320
variation to it that I was like,
OK, that'll that'll have some 

245
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:33,240
randomness, some like some some 
clarity in terms of the goal and

246
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,760
it'll be slightly different 
because I don't know a lot of 

247
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:41,240
other PVPVE games. 
Also, I noticed that when like 

248
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,720
when playing demos of games, I 
would usually be like at a 

249
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:50,200
convention with like a group of 
people and usually I would walk 

250
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,520
up and, and if I wanted to demo 
something, I had just like a 

251
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,240
person standing with me watching
the demo. 

252
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,640
And like they would also be 
learning, but they wouldn't 

253
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,040
actually be the 1 rolling the 
dice or anything. 

254
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,920
But with snack, if you have a 
random person, they can just 

255
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,440
they can just control the 
monster. 

256
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,920
You can like if, if, if a parent
or a pair of like, you know, 

257
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,640
like a brother and sister or 
whatever are there, it's like, 

258
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,600
yeah, you can play. 
How about you be the be the big 

259
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,320
guy and try and kill your dad 
and like that's fun. 

260
00:13:19,560 --> 00:13:21,080
Yeah, no, I was just going to 
ask. 

261
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,120
So do you, do you have a third 
person or do you play the 

262
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,400
monster a bunch when you're 
doing it? 

263
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,240
And would you with the third 
person, they can just do 

264
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,040
whatever they want within the 
context of it's just another 

265
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:32,640
character not following the AI, 
right? 

266
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,440
Yeah, they can. 
I mean, I would still like go 

267
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,200
over how the the monster 
typically works, but I mean 

268
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,920
there's there's nothing that can
convince. 

269
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,880
Like a six year old not to cheat
at a game. 

270
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:47,280
We have one of our play testers 
who play tests with their kids 

271
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,800
and he's like, yeah, you're not 
aware of the amount of cheating 

272
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,360
that goes on in a game of Snack 
28 in my house. 

273
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,560
But we have a good time. 
And like that's the important 

274
00:13:54,560 --> 00:13:56,000
part. 
I'm not building this for 

275
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,160
competitive play where people 
can like optimize, you know, 

276
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,760
what snack they take. 
And it's silly, right? 

277
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,600
If you're like, oh man, well, 
you got to take death by 

278
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,040
chocolate and Baja blast and and
all of these abilities like you 

279
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,440
just sound, you sound. 
Silly saying if you're trying to

280
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,640
met a snack, 28 so. 
And it's funny because you named

281
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,760
like 2 of the abilities that 
that Hunter took. 

282
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,320
He literally was hitting me with
Baja Blast, which is like one of

283
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,560
my favorite things IRL. 
So it was, it's really funny the

284
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,080
way you put all that in when 
you're when you're making the 

285
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,200
game. 
Do you 'cause they're a bunch of

286
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,440
monsters and you describe it as 
an asymmetric game, What did you

287
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,600
find more fun to do? 
Like create new characters to 

288
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,200
play or as in like your 
miniatures and things? 

289
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,800
Or creating new monsters to to 
eat the players. 

290
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,080
I like the design aspect much 
more. 

291
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,720
Drawing the pictures is fun. 
Having to figure out what they 

292
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,280
do on the tabletop so that their
ability is distinct from other 

293
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:59,000
monsters abilities but also 
makes sense is a lot. 

294
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:04,880
Harder like I. 
I had, I had talked with my 

295
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,520
design team. 
I have my wonderful editor 

296
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:13,000
Cameron, who's always helping me
with stuff he's so good at, like

297
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
organizing things and and 
helping to. 

298
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,560
Get set up for play testing and 
like running things through 

299
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:25,000
things through and Cameron's 
partner G is like a real war 

300
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,240
game strategist. 
So has that really like 

301
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,160
analytical mind. 
The the two of them are great 

302
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,720
for like just running an idea by
and being like is this a real 

303
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:39,400
idea or is this nothing? 
Because I had one monster that I

304
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:44,240
was going to try and do that was
like a giant milk carton that 

305
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,680
would slowly like leak milk in 
like a floor is lava situation 

306
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,280
and slowly flood the board. 
And they were like, there's no 

307
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:56,640
practical way. 
To flood a board with chocolate 

308
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:01,720
milk that makes sense that you 
can easily write within the time

309
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,760
frame that you have. 
And I'm like, in my head, I was 

310
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,440
visualizing it so clearly and 
then putting it in terms of 

311
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,960
practicality. 
I was like, yeah, that does make

312
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,520
sense. 
Having to judge what height 

313
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,360
you're at in a building 
constantly is not. 

314
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,200
It's not in line with keeping 
snacks simple and like easy to 

315
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,640
to just sort of roll up and go 
with. 

316
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,720
But yeah, it's stuff like that 
where it's just like sometimes 

317
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,080
I'll have a really cool idea for
how something could work and 

318
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,680
then in practicality, the like 
rules writing for it would be 

319
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,680
really complicated or really 
difficult to keep track of. 

320
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,200
So always designing the creature
is more fun than having to 

321
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,080
actually nail down the rules for
them. 

322
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,400
I think you could do a flooded 
thing though, but that might 

323
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,000
need to be like its own specific
board for demo purposes and 

324
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,680
stuff like that. 
But that sounds awesome to have 

325
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,680
to be like, all right. 
Like suddenly the board like 

326
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,120
drops an inch and there's just 
like a brown like layer and it's

327
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,400
just like that's the milk ocean 
and your candy and cookies and 

328
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,520
things. 
So you can't dip into the milk 

329
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,079
or you're going to melt. 
And that's awesome. 

330
00:17:06,599 --> 00:17:08,079
Yeah. 
No, that's, that's, that's 

331
00:17:08,079 --> 00:17:10,640
awesome. 
It was a great idea, just 

332
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,240
impossible for me to. 
Figure out how to accomplish in 

333
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,079
a rules writing way in the time 
that I had because I really 

334
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:19,760
wanted to get the the full 
expanded edition ready for Adept

335
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,520
to Con. 
And then what, what did you 

336
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,839
expand on this edition versus 
like the the one you had last 

337
00:17:25,839 --> 00:17:28,280
year, anything like what is the,
what is what, what makes this 

338
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,600
one a little bit different? 
Yeah, so there's some new art in

339
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:32,760
there. 
There's five more. 

340
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:38,480
Monsters and there's the mounted
combat is like the new the new 

341
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,640
thing because that isn't in the 
original 1. 

342
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,280
There's a little bit more lore 
in there and then there's a 

343
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,320
couple just like alternate play 
modes that people have been 

344
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,880
asking for. 
They were like, oh man, what if 

345
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,320
we had a battle Royale? 
Mode and I'm like. 

346
00:17:53,120 --> 00:17:56,800
Taking the monster out of the 
game kind of makes it less 

347
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,960
snack, but if you want that, 
sure. 

348
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,960
I mean like that's an easy 
scenario to write up and then 

349
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,120
like. 
One of the alternate rules in 

350
00:18:04,120 --> 00:18:09,000
there is just adding fall damage
because so many people have 

351
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,640
encountered situations where 
they shove someone off of 

352
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,080
something and they're like. 
Do I take damage for that? 

353
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,640
And I'm like, rules as written, 
No, you don't. 

354
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,640
But I do see how that could add 
fun to the game. 

355
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,480
So if you want it, it's there. 
It's all about just sort of 

356
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,360
adding stuff to it. 
But I hate when a game updates 

357
00:18:28,360 --> 00:18:31,440
and then it's like, oh man, all 
the rules that I worked so hard 

358
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,160
to try and figure out how they 
work. 

359
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,640
They don't matter anymore, it's 
all different. 

360
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,800
So like none of the core rules 
of snack have changed, it's just

361
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,720
adding stuff in if you want to 
use it. 

362
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,920
So wait a minute, you're not 
going to redo your rules 

363
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:48,040
entirely every three years on a 
rotation so we can get to snack 

364
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:53,160
28 tenth edition, 11th edition, 
we can go back to Snack again 

365
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,240
for the 4th time or something. 
I'm going to do that. 

366
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:57,800
I'm going to make sure that I do
that. 

367
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,000
It's going to cost more every 
time. 

368
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,440
You're going to have to rebuy 
all of your codexes for all the 

369
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,040
snacks and then I'm going to 
give you one hour long 

370
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:12,080
presentation with 16 technical 
issues where I only announced 

371
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,080
one cool mini. 
I think that will be really the 

372
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:17,280
the best way for snack to go in 
the future. 

373
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,680
And then you can just make that 
mini exactly the same as all the

374
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,320
previous minis, but just give it
the head and the knees of like 

375
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,720
the first edition of the minis. 
And then you're going to go. 

376
00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:30,480
And then people will go crazy. 
They'll be like, oh man, this is

377
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:35,360
just like Snack edition one. 
And I'll be like, yeah, it is. 

378
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,600
And I'll just be like, at least 
it's not ultramarines or or 

379
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,960
blueberries or whatever we're 
going to call this here. 

380
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,120
So you're also you're, you are, 
you are sugar candy miniatures 

381
00:19:47,120 --> 00:19:50,280
and you had miniatures to sell. 
So on top of the game design 

382
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,280
aspect, do you actually, do you 
make the miniatures? 

383
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:54,680
Do you print the miniatures? 
Like how do how do your 

384
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,560
miniatures happen? 
So I have a fantastic sculptor 

385
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,400
that I hire. 
Mageworks, who digitally sculpts

386
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,480
them and then they're they're 3D
prints like any other. 

387
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,200
The ones that you can buy 
through Ramshackle games are 

388
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,000
resin cast and they're really, 
really nice. 

389
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:14,000
But I design them. 
I do all the concept work. 

390
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,520
I send it over to Mageworks and 
then we work together adjusting 

391
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,440
like little things, changing 
stuff here and there to make 

392
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:26,960
sure that it gets translated 
from, from the 2D drawing to the

393
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:32,320
3D sculpt as much as possible. 
I have tried 3D sculpting before

394
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,040
and I hate it. 
I, I like a lot of sculpting is 

395
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:41,160
you're kind of on a XYZ grid 
system and that is like putting 

396
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,280
math into art for my brain. 
It doesn't work for me. 

397
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,600
And fortunately I just, I found 
someone fantastic to work with 

398
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,280
who, who does great work and 
I'm, I'm, I'm totally satisfied.

399
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,480
I see no reason to, to change 
that workflow. 

400
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,600
I'm happy to pay someone to 
sculpt stuff and have it come 

401
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,360
out perfect. 
Yeah, and they they look 

402
00:21:01,360 --> 00:21:03,240
incredible. 
Again, I'll show them off when 

403
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,240
we're actually do the review. 
But you have some new characters

404
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,720
this year versus what you had 
last year. 

405
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,680
So what for, for, for again, for
those that have not yet seen the

406
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,800
book, what are some of the kind 
of characters that you have in 

407
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,560
the game specifically? 
I mean, you have one that is 

408
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:24,160
like the size of a toddler that 
you bring around, but what are 

409
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,320
what are some of the characters 
and and even some of the 

410
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,200
monsters as well that people can
get to play with? 

411
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,960
So the one the the big guy that 
I have his name is all sorts. 

412
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,440
He's he's the mascot. 
He's he's my favorite character 

413
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,080
that I've probably ever 
designed. 

414
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,840
He's on the. 
The the the page. 

415
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,520
He's the only one in color. 
There my camera's probably too 

416
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:49,200
crappy to show it off, but he's 
just like a little cat bear 

417
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:55,320
rabbit thing that has a funny 
little face that I drew and and 

418
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:56,680
I love him. 
He's great. 

419
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,360
People can have their own 
different little head cannons 

420
00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:04,080
about what his back story might 
because I didn't I didn't put 

421
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:10,080
any of my like model characters 
in as as NPC's or anything like.

422
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,840
That, but I have my own little 
ideas for their backstories. 

423
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:18,440
That maybe if campaign mode for 
snack 28. 

424
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,320
Is is being worked on in the 
background? 

425
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,960
Then then people might get to 
know a little bit more about 

426
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,920
their backstories. 
In the future, which would be 

427
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:30,040
fun, but for now? 
For now, there's nothing written

428
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:34,640
in stone. 
So so so. 

429
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,120
But there might be a campaign 
mode at some point? 

430
00:22:37,120 --> 00:22:38,200
Is that what I just heard? 
Might. 

431
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,200
Be a campaign mode. 
I had some good conversations 

432
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,040
with people at Adapticon and I 
want to make sure that I'm 

433
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,480
making stuff and people have 
have have asked for a campaign 

434
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,240
mode. 
So that's that might just be 

435
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,360
kind of cooking in the 
background and we'll see if that

436
00:22:52,360 --> 00:22:58,760
goes anywhere. 
If it cooks, what what what? 

437
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,840
What would what, What broad 
strokes are you thinking? 

438
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,400
Bigger war bands? 
You're thinking cooler stuff 

439
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:09,200
like what could. 
Kind of like RPG based I guess 

440
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:16,080
is is the the best way but like 
I don't know if you are familiar

441
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,240
with Warhammer curse. 
City at all. 

442
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,000
Not necessarily the nobody could
buy it because the pre-order 

443
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,520
system was terrible and then 
they dropped the coverage for 

444
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:27,480
it. 
That's like the shitty. 

445
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,720
Part of it, but the idea. 
Of of you being guys going 

446
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,640
through a city infested with 
vampires is really cool. 

447
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,840
That's a that's a cool idea of 
setting. 

448
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:43,720
I like it and there are in the 
in the lore of Snack 28, there 

449
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,800
are canonical vampires because 
vampires are just cool and I 

450
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,480
like Castlevania and Vampire 
Hunter D. 

451
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:56,880
So it would be more of like 
trying to figure out what's 

452
00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:02,320
going on in this in this in this
castle of Vaughn appetit 

453
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:06,600
vampires that exist in in the 
story and going through there. 

454
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,400
More. 
Of like a sort of like explore 

455
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,920
an area, defeat a specific 
monster and then there'd be some

456
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:18,760
kind of like power up system. 
Probably I'm talking with people

457
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,800
who are better at writing 
narrative campaigns than than I 

458
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,640
am. 
Because, again. 

459
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,560
The the rules part. 
Isn't where I feel I shine the 

460
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,360
most, it's more in the ideas and
and design aspect of it but not 

461
00:24:30,360 --> 00:24:31,800
the actual. 
Mechanics. 

462
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,680
So just seeing how that would 
work, but it would it would be 

463
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,480
kind of like discovering just a 
like fun little story to go 

464
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:44,320
through and seeing if you could.
Liberate a little town and and 

465
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:48,400
take back maybe a part of the 
the Snack 28 world from from the

466
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,960
the vampires who are currently 
in control of it. 

467
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,080
And you have. 
So I think I must have an older 

468
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,760
version because in the one I 
have in my hands, you have my 

469
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,880
new favorite character in here. 
But on my PDF I don't. 

470
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,760
So I'm going to go to Itch right
now and find that. 

471
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:09,000
Yeah, the the PDF currently on. 
Itch It is the old version. 

472
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,840
I'm launching the the digital 
updated version on the same day 

473
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:18,160
that Snack 28 is officially 
published and out with the 

474
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,920
flatulent and the fool. 
So you can buy it like the print

475
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,600
copies directly from them and 
the itch will get updated with 

476
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,360
that latest version that's 
coming out on May 9th. 

477
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:32,280
So the the the one online isn't 
up to date just yet. 

478
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,440
But if your favorite character 
is the bat on the worm, like so 

479
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,000
many other people's favorite, 
I've got, I've got the. 

480
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:45,320
Let's this guy. 
Yeah, it won't. 

481
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:46,320
It won't focus. 
There you go. 

482
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,480
I saw a painted one. 
That the worm. 

483
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:49,960
Yeah. 
The Worm. 

484
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,320
Incredible. 
And then? 

485
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,640
The bat ready to go. 
Too and you have multiple bat 

486
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,560
miniatures because you have the 
I think they're what like 3 

487
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,320
different ones? 
Aren't there two different 

488
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:02,760
weapon ones and then a guy 
riding? 

489
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,040
Or is it just the 1 weapon one 
and the guy riding? 

490
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:10,160
There's 1 weapon one but he 
technically has there's one 

491
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,960
where he has an actual. 
Like sculpted flag and one where

492
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,560
he just has the banner pole 
because I like making paper 

493
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:21,800
flags. 
So I when I was designing the 

494
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,240
mini, I told my sculptor, hey, 
can you do one with a flag and 

495
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,600
one without just so I can make a
paper banner? 

496
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,280
And then it's like, yeah, other 
people might want to do that as 

497
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,560
well. 
So but then he has a standing 

498
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,280
variant where he has a cool 
hammer that is made to look like

499
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,800
those grandma. 
Strawberry candies. 

500
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:45,640
So yeah, 'cause you can get. 
On and off the the mounts in the

501
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:50,200
game, so I wanted to make sure 
that anyone we had with a rider 

502
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,240
pose also just had like a 
standing pose so you can. 

503
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,720
Paint both or. 
One or neither, whatever you 

504
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,240
want. 
But I mean, I only design 

505
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:02,040
miniatures that I really really 
want to paint, so I'm super hype

506
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,600
about all of them. 
They looking good. 

507
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,720
I have the page up right now 
that has the original model 

508
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,440
catalog with all sorts and 
crinkle and honey Bear and the 

509
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,200
cupcake Colossus. 
And then for those when you go 

510
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,320
get the new version of it, you 
now you added the roll cake 

511
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:21,200
night on a hippocampus. 
You got licorice, my favorite on

512
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,920
the gummy worm. 
You got Professor Pork Chop. 

513
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:25,480
What's Professor Pork Chop made 
of? 

514
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,040
He's he's just a little pig. 
My editor Cameron was like there

515
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:34,400
should be a pig Kingdom in Snack
28 and really campaigned for a 

516
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,000
pig. 
I'm painting mine to be mint 

517
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,320
chocolate chip with a little 
doughnut hat. 

518
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,120
And little like birthday cake 
candle explosives. 

519
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:49,160
So Professor Pork Chop was just 
I suck at designing ranged 

520
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,720
weapons because it's all either 
crossbows or guns really. 

521
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:57,120
And I'm not good at drawing guns
or crossbows. 

522
00:27:57,120 --> 00:28:01,040
So he has he has little candle 
molotovs that he can throw, 

523
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,800
which is not only more fun, but 
way easier to draw. 

524
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,640
And it's incredible. 
And then also in the book here, 

525
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:11,080
we we touched on it briefly. 
The board that you made for this

526
00:28:11,120 --> 00:28:14,800
is incredible. 
Like tell me about is a lot of 

527
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,360
this 3D printed a lot of this 
like scratch built? 

528
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:19,280
Like how did you make this 
board? 

529
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:25,440
So the board is largely 3D 
printed just because I have 

530
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,880
incredible friends. 
It's mostly the hagglethorn 

531
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,840
hollow line of terrain and then 
a couple other. 

532
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,040
There was like someone. 
Who made like a build your own 

533
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,080
gingerbread house kid whose name
escapes me right now, but that 

534
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,000
was great. 
And then there's one, there's 

535
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:46,040
one building that is from 
Mallifo. 

536
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,320
They have like a lot of really 
cool terrain, but it's a real 

537
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,760
pain in the ass has to build. 
So just just one manifold 

538
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,360
building there. 
But it's all it's it's just 

539
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,320
painted. 
To to look like. 

540
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:01,200
It's made out of candy. 
I've got like a I've got, hang 

541
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,880
on, I've got a little billboard 
right up here that I can show 

542
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:12,720
you for Jelly Bean Junction. 
So that's just painted and then 

543
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,040
I have on the other side play 
Snack 28. 

544
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,720
So that was really fun to paint 
up. 

545
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,320
But like the little walkways and
stuff or just just pop sticks 

546
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:27,200
that are are painted. 
And I love doing freehand. 

547
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,800
That's that's my favorite part 
of painting. 

548
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,120
So I did wood grain on all of 
them. 

549
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,000
And at the time when I was 
sitting there painting wood 

550
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,360
grain for like 1,000,000 hours, 
I was like, is this worth it? 

551
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,320
And then so many people when I 
demoed it the first time were 

552
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,680
like, all that wood grain looks 
sick. 

553
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,040
And I'm like. 
Yes, that was worth it. 

554
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,760
It got complimented so much. 
But yeah, it was just, I knew 

555
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:54,680
that in order to like, sell the 
idea of the game, I needed to 

556
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,880
have a. 
Board that people could just 

557
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:01,280
look at and immediately know 
like, OK, this is Candyland. 

558
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,320
Like this is not, this is not 
Trench Crusade. 

559
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,720
This is not any like Warhammer 
setting. 

560
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,960
Like it's its own setting. 
It's its own thing. 

561
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:13,200
It's its own vibe. 
And that was like, I knew that 

562
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,360
was a really important aspect 
because the first year that I 

563
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,880
entered one of my ice cream 
nights. 

564
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,040
In Golden Demon, when I was just
pulling it out to show like a 

565
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,240
friend while I was waiting for 
the the, the thing to open up so

566
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,600
you could drop things off, like 
four or five people came up to 

567
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,680
me and we're like strangers were
like, oh, that's really sick. 

568
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,280
What is that? 
And I was like, OK, so there's 

569
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,560
something there that's grabbing 
attention. 

570
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,960
So if I want people to notice 
this, having a board that is 

571
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:48,720
done up the same way, it's the 
same level of like not quite the

572
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,280
same level of detail because you
know, it's terrain, but like a 

573
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,760
similar level of, of, of 
spectacle that will pull people 

574
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,000
in is going to be really 
important for people having a 

575
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,320
good time. 
And also, frankly, I really love

576
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,560
the spreads in like codexes and 
White Dwarf and stuff like that 

577
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,400
where there is an immersive 
board. 

578
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,400
It really, it hits different 
when you see something and it's 

579
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,560
like, oh, that's the coolest 
thing I've ever seen. 

580
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,480
So I wanted that for myself as 
well. 

581
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,480
Yeah, no, yeah. 
I mean, scatter train on a 

582
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,760
neoprene mat is fine to play a 
game, but when you can roll up 

583
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,440
to something that is like, it 
feels like the world, it 

584
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:25,680
definitely makes a huge 
difference. 

585
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,120
And then and you're the the 
touches that you have on your 

586
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:29,800
board. 
First of all, the fucking the 

587
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,200
thing that got me immediately 
was the upset on Candy Cohen is 

588
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,080
like the top of the tower that 
instantaneously like puts you 

589
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:37,360
into the world. 
But then when you look at like 

590
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,800
the fine details, you can see 
even just from this image, the 

591
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:45,200
the candy cane corners, the 
cookie window shades, the icing 

592
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,400
like on the on the corners of 
the building for like the 

593
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,440
gingerbread stuff. 
And then just like the color 

594
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,560
scheme you pick like it just 
screams like cotton candy and 

595
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,600
icing and frosting and and 
stuff. 

596
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,600
It's just it's incredible. 
I mean, from across the room, 

597
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,600
especially at a place like 
Adepticon, where, as you said, 

598
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,040
you know, everyone around you is
probably playing Nekromundo or a

599
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,240
trench crusade or like grim 
gritty shit in the whatever 

600
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,360
century. 
And then you just see this like 

601
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,520
frosting covered bore rolling 
through with like a giant 

602
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,320
cupcake on the middle. 
It your brain just like 

603
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,000
immediately does like a, like a 
spit take, you know, and you're 

604
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,280
like, I have to know what the 
fuck's going on here, you know? 

605
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,280
Yeah, when I was demoing last 
year, they. 

606
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,160
Put me in, Well, they didn't put
me in, to be fair, My friend 

607
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,160
Tom, who has incredible, 
incredible Mordheim boards. 

608
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,720
I talked about wanting to demo a
game and he was like, well, I've

609
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,120
got a little bit of extra space 
on my table. 

610
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,160
How much room does your game 
take up? 

611
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,760
And I was like, oh, it's two by 
two. 

612
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,880
Like I wanted something that 
wasn't just called like kitchen 

613
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,480
table, but actually could fit on
a standard kitchen table with 

614
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,600
room for you to have your drink 
and your dice and your snacks 

615
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,840
and play a game. 
And two by two was the perfect. 

616
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,840
Size for that. 
So he was like, yeah, just come 

617
00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:59,600
set it up, whatever they put us 
in. 

618
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,440
The Trench Crusade room. 
We were demoing in the Trench 

619
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:06,320
Crusade room and I was so 
mortified when I found out. 

620
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,400
I was like, Oh no, this is the 
worst place that I could be. 

621
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,360
No one's going to like this 
here. 

622
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,600
But then I ended up making 
friends with like all of the 

623
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,520
people who are demoing Trench 
Crusade. 

624
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:23,280
I don't know if you know Sammy 
and Jared and like a couple, I 

625
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,240
think. 
I think Caleb was there too. 

626
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,080
But like so many people were 
just coming up like in between 

627
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,480
their Trench Crusade games and 
being like, what is this? 

628
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,240
What's going on here? 
This is different. 

629
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,400
I saw this that I had. 
To know what it was. 

630
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,680
So that was really cool. 
And that was eye opening for me 

631
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,960
about my own like assumptions 
because it's, it's a little. 

632
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,880
Scary to be like, hey my indie 
game is an indie game. 

633
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,800
I swear it has violence, but it 
doesn't look like any of the 

634
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,280
other indie games. 
But that that ended up being a 

635
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,640
huge asset because people were 
just psyched about it. 

636
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,760
And a lot of people, their 
feedback has been my partner 

637
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,960
will actually play this one with
me or my partner saw like one of

638
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,560
the miniatures that I had or saw
the cover and was like. 

639
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:08,000
OK, I'll try this game with you.
And that wasn't something that 

640
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,920
like I had thought would happen,
but it was something that went 

641
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,400
into the design. 
Where I was like. 

642
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,120
OK, people who aren't like the 
typical gamer should be able to 

643
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,280
just look at the character 
creation page. 

644
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,120
Read through it and not have any
questions about making a 

645
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:24,719
character. 
And it's like for making a 

646
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,280
character, you choose three 
things. 

647
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,080
There's no math involved. 
There's like. 

648
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,000
People are like, why does this 
not cost anything in coins or 

649
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,600
equipment? 
And I'm like, because I don't 

650
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,920
want to do the math. 
Because math isn't fun. 

651
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,280
Making a more time war band is 
not fun to me because I have to 

652
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,239
do math. 
With this, I have to choose 

653
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,520
three things. 
I can get it done in 10 minutes 

654
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,000
at most. 
You know, like it's, it's not a 

655
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,120
problem. 
So just hearing that and and 

656
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:53,000
having people's partners 
actually play snack 28 with them

657
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,760
or paint the miniatures with 
them is super cool feedback to 

658
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,160
hear. 
I'm I'm always so happy about 

659
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,440
that. 
Yeah, I mean, as you said, 

660
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,640
people that are like the 
partners of the people that are 

661
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,040
in the Trench Crusade room, but 
also parents and kids and stuff 

662
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,920
that you said were were coming 
through and playing it. 

663
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,120
And it's also I think the only 
scrimmage game I played with 

664
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,280
cannibalism in it. 
So like you definitely do have 

665
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,160
you definitely do some violence 
in there. 

666
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,440
Like you definitely you're still
shooting people. 

667
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,240
Like I had my miniature had this
giant Gatling on. 

668
00:35:21,240 --> 00:35:23,560
I was just like, I'm just 
blasting sprinkles at you for 

669
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,560
like 2 actions and then I'll 
just like hop down and try to 

670
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,000
eat you. 
A hunter ended up eating the the

671
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,800
marshmallow monster, which was 
which was cool. 

672
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:35,440
I'll throw that up on here real 
quick. 

673
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,200
So looking at some of the 
monsters, you got the mint 

674
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,200
chocolate popsicle frog guy here
in the back. 

675
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,640
You got the this is who we 
played with on ours, the 

676
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,600
marshmallow monster with their 
two passive ingredients. 

677
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,960
I love the the burnt to a crisp,
which makes sense. 

678
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,640
The guy's on fire. 
So if you start in base to base 

679
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:58,760
contact, you're just on fire. 
The ginger Snapdragon and then 

680
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,960
the one the, I would say the 
other kind of like mascot 

681
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,120
character in my head for Snack 
28. 

682
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,320
It's all sorts. 
And the cupcake colossus. 

683
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,120
Yeah, and it's people. 
Really. 

684
00:36:09,240 --> 00:36:11,600
People really like him? 
Let me grab him. 

685
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:16,280
I have all of my snack 28 
miniatures on a shelf nearby so 

686
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:22,840
I can show off OK. 
Yeah, here he is. 

687
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,040
He's beautiful. 
I love him. 

688
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,920
He's such a little guy, he is. 
He's got his handles. 

689
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,080
He is indeed a little guy and 
your painting is incredible. 

690
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,360
Like you. 
You really? 

691
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,680
Thank you. 
Make things look like desserts, 

692
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,720
which is the point, but also 
they're they're really fantastic

693
00:36:39,720 --> 00:36:44,880
and obviously with your with 
your ice cream nights too. 

694
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,200
So. 
Yeah. 

695
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,200
I guess. 
I guess I usually do this in the

696
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,680
beginning, but we'll wind back a
little bit farther. 

697
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,880
So what got you into skirmish 
and wargaming in the 1st place? 

698
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,080
And how did that turn into ice 
cream nights? 

699
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,080
Like why so much dessert 
options? 

700
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:06,000
Well, that the why so much 
dessert is it's just because 

701
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,720
it's it's the aesthetic that. 
I like, I mean, you can see the 

702
00:37:08,720 --> 00:37:10,520
room. 
It's, it's painted pink. 

703
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,160
You can't see them, but they're 
like pictures and art and stuff 

704
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,160
of ice cream on the walls. 
I've always been. 

705
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,240
Drawn little candy, guys. 
That's just, it's just the 

706
00:37:19,240 --> 00:37:23,040
aesthetic that I enjoy it. 
Like it's no different from I 

707
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:27,640
assume most indie games or or 
war games draw from like people.

708
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:33,080
'S love of like the the war 
aesthetics or like black metal 

709
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,840
album aesthetics that they like 
It's it's literally. 

710
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:42,040
No different than that. 
But I think I got into Warhammer

711
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:48,400
mostly during COVID. 
I was just like something to do.

712
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,400
Had been playing D&D for a 
little while. 

713
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,760
And I mean, you, you show me a 
little tiny guy and I'm like, 

714
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:59,000
yeah, OK, I want to know how to 
paint the little tiny guy. 

715
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:04,760
So I went to learn to paint. 
Night at my local game store and

716
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,120
I painted like one of those whiz
kid miniatures and I was like OK

717
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,480
this is sick. 
Actually, I really enjoy doing 

718
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:15,720
this. 
And then I just wanted goblins 

719
00:38:15,720 --> 00:38:19,160
and and orcs for my D&D monsters
and. 

720
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:27,600
At the time the the runt herder 
like squig guy from from 

721
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:33,680
Warhammer 40K that box was 
cheaper than buying individual 

722
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,280
little like whiz kids orcs 
miniatures. 

723
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,200
And I thought the goblins were 
orcs. 

724
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,600
I did not know a. 
Lot about Warhammer at the time,

725
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,880
so I kept calling the grots in 
their orcs. 

726
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,560
But I was like, oh, this is a 
good value. 

727
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,240
You know, there's like there's 
like 10 guys in here and it's 

728
00:38:48,240 --> 00:38:50,600
like, I don't know, like 20 
bucks or something like that. 

729
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:55,000
And then I get home and I open 
it and there aren't little guys 

730
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,360
in there. 
There's actually just a sprue. 

731
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,120
And I'm like, oh, OK, this is 
this is different. 

732
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,960
So I took to YouTube and started
started getting into it. 

733
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,320
Started watching like Goobertown
Hobbies. 

734
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:13,960
And and and miscast and like all
the other hobby Youtubers and 

735
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,800
stuff like that. 
And I was like, oh, this is like

736
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,160
a whole big cool world. 
So it was just it was just from 

737
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,320
there. 
But yeah, painting DND 

738
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,800
miniatures and then learning 
that there were there were tons 

739
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,160
of other games and and stuff 
like that. 

740
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:28,960
I tried to learn Warhammer. 
I think the. 

741
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,680
Spectacle of an army is so cool 
but it's it's just not for me. 

742
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,800
I don't like the actual game 
itself. 

743
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,720
It's one of those. 
So I'm I'm in the process of 

744
00:39:39,720 --> 00:39:44,240
putting together a night Lords 
horse heresy army and I know 

745
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,600
that I am going to play the game
like twice with a friend and 

746
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,720
then never do anything again. 
But like I want the experience 

747
00:39:50,720 --> 00:39:54,760
of having like 80 painted dudes 
like on the board but skirmish 

748
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,080
is definitely singing in my 
brain. 

749
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:57,760
But when I started it was 
fucking goblins too. 

750
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,880
If you could see the crates of 
like the whiz kids. 

751
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:07,360
I used to be able to name every 
model, model number from all 

752
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:11,720
like 13 different lines they put
out because I have like 90% of 

753
00:40:11,720 --> 00:40:13,800
them. 
Because I started with oh, I'm 

754
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,600
running a campaign for friend or
I'm running a game for friends. 

755
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,680
Because I started playing D&D in
2014. 

756
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,800
At the start I said I just need 
5 goblins and some of five 

757
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,320
goblins became like 1000 little 
guys in boxes in my closet. 

758
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,000
But trust me, it never starts 
with just goblins. 

759
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,160
Guys, if you get goblins, you're
going to keep going. 

760
00:40:30,720 --> 00:40:35,040
But but, yeah, back then I was 
like, I'm just going to, I knew 

761
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,520
what Warhammer was once I kind 
of got into D&D and was like, I 

762
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,560
can't get into Warhammer because
it's going to be too expensive. 

763
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,040
And then I got into tabletop 
games and was like, I just spent

764
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,080
the money somewhere else and 
made no fucking difference. 

765
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,320
But yeah, yeah, I think the 
spectacle, yeah. 

766
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:52,720
Being able to field 3000 points 
will feel really cool while I'm 

767
00:40:52,720 --> 00:40:55,160
setting it up. 
And then five hours into the 

768
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,440
game when I still have no idea 
what's going on, I feel like 

769
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,040
it's going to feel less cool. 
But at least I'll have done it. 

770
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,120
And that's that's where I'm at. 
I feel so bad. 

771
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:07,640
I want my ice cream nights to 
see battle someday. 

772
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:09,800
I just don't. 
Want to be. 

773
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,120
I don't want to get in the robot
Shinji. 

774
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,600
I do not want to be piloting 
them like they're beautiful and 

775
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:19,600
they deserve to be seen, but I 
am not the person to take them 

776
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,400
into battle. 
Absolutely not. 

777
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,920
It's not for me. 
I can't even imagine how many 

778
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,760
points you need to have in 
opposing armies to be able to 

779
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,360
field a couple of of nights like
that. 

780
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,200
It's not going to be like a 
small. 

781
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,800
No, it's going to be big because
I've got, I've got. 

782
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:40,320
Three of the big ones and. 
Four of the baby ones and they 

783
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:46,960
put out a new pattern, chassis, 
whatever the a new kit for a 

784
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,560
different night that's basically
the same but slightly different 

785
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,640
and I'm like hell yeah, now I 
have an excuse to buy a fourth 

786
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,720
big guy. 
It's so funny to me that I can 

787
00:41:56,720 --> 00:42:00,960
imagine your mini shelf being 
like Cupcake guy, all sorts Guy,

788
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:06,040
Licorice, Bat Guy, 7 Warhammer 
Nights painted like ice cream, 

789
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:10,160
like, yeah. 
That's that's not inaccurate to 

790
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:14,320
how it is. 
My nearest display cabinet has 

791
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:20,600
all of my Knights in it and then
it has like another shelf that 

792
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:25,600
has like a lot of miniatures 
that friends gave me or that 

793
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,560
like I built for a specific 
game. 

794
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:32,880
And then the bottom shelf is 
like this collaborative clown 

795
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:38,560
themed gloomspike gets army that
like I I've made with a bunch of

796
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:42,920
other Youtubers and friends as 
like a, a pride thing just to 

797
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,000
like paint a weird army. 
So every model is painted by 

798
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,480
like a different person. 
And I didn't expect so many 

799
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,840
people to be into it. 
And now I have this army and I 

800
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,600
never started that project with 
like a purpose of what to to do 

801
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:57,880
with it. 
At the end. 

802
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,600
I just wanted to make something 
weird for Pride because 

803
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:02,920
everybody was just sort of 
painting like rainbow flag 

804
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,520
stuff, which is cool. 
But I was like, well, I'm queer 

805
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,440
and I like clowns and stuff, so 
let's do that. 

806
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,600
And then friends were into it. 
But I have like, yeah, I think I

807
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,800
have a full 2000. 
Points just about unclean spike.

808
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,840
It's that I don't, I don't know 
what to do with. 

809
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,240
I should have had a plan for 
that and I didn't. 

810
00:43:21,240 --> 00:43:24,200
I didn't at all. 
You just have a bunch of cool 

811
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,040
guys and that's cool. 
Wasn't wasn't there some was it 

812
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,680
this year that there was some 
clown controversy someone wasn't

813
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,040
allowed to put in like their 
Necromunda clowns or some 

814
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,200
bullshit? 
Yeah, I think so. 

815
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:39,080
I mean, I, I got disqualified 
from Golden Demon last year, and

816
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,160
I can show you. 
I can show you the boy that I 

817
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:44,120
got disqualified. 
He's not technically an Imperial

818
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,320
Knight. 
He's some Horus Heresy guy. 

819
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,600
I don't remember his technical 
name. 

820
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,440
Look at him. 
He's such a friend. 

821
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,480
Why would you disqualify this 
boy? 

822
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:54,400
He's beautiful. 
He did nothing. 

823
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:55,960
Wrong. 
What? 

824
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,440
What did they say was 
disqualifying about it? 

825
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,480
They did not. 
They simply didn't. 

826
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,520
They did not give me a reason. 
They were like, unfortunately we

827
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:06,960
cannot, we cannot have him. 
So they pulled him from the 

828
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,200
case. 
But that's OK. 

829
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,760
He tried his best and that's 
really all he could do. 

830
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:18,360
I named him Short Stack, like a 
short stack of pancakes, and 

831
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:19,960
he's beautiful. 
I love him. 

832
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,800
That's awful that they couldn't 
even like write something down 

833
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,040
because if they had like written
something on A tag I would just 

834
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,920
make sure I kept that tag 
forever because I think getting 

835
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,040
a little DQ tag would be just as
good as a fucking pin from 

836
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:35,000
Golden Demon in my opinion. 
Well, it was, it's really 

837
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:39,040
perplexing because they've 
allowed my work every other year

838
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,440
besides that year. 
So I was like, I don't know what

839
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:46,440
to change about what it is like 
what? 

840
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,000
Was the differentiating factor 
in this one as opposed to the 

841
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:51,960
other. 
Ones because a lot of people 

842
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,840
have told me that they look for 
by miniatures in the case they 

843
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:57,800
want to see them. 
Every year. 

844
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:01,480
So it's like I didn't enter 
anything this year because I was

845
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:05,560
too busy working on snack. 
But if I knew what aspect it was

846
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,760
that that made them go, no, we 
actually can't with this one, 

847
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,560
then I could just not do that on
a future project and make sure 

848
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:12,840
it stays in the case. 
But. 

849
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,080
Which is why they should tell 
you because you don't want to 

850
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,400
waste your not waste your time 
because short SEC is very cool. 

851
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,920
But you don't want to spend your
time with the goal in mind of 

852
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,640
being putting in a golden demon 
and then getting there and then 

853
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,040
being like, sorry, no, but we're
not going to tell you why. 

854
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:28,280
Good luck in the future. 
Like that's some bullshit right 

855
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,600
there. 
Yeah, everybody was way angrier 

856
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,680
about it than I was last year, 
but I was so exhausted from 

857
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,840
running Snack 28 demos that I 
could barely care about it. 

858
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:39,880
They were like. 
We looked for your miniature in 

859
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:41,520
the case and we didn't see it 
and I'm like. 

860
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:45,000
I entered it in there and then 
eventually I got the chance to 

861
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,720
go by and I was like, oh, I 
guess it's not there. 

862
00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:50,640
And then I asked the guy and he 
was like, yeah, they they said 

863
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:54,680
no. 
And I was like, OK, you know how

864
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,160
it is towards the end of 
Adepticon, you're just so tired.

865
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,760
Like you're so happy to be there
and see your friends and stuff, 

866
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,560
but you are your, your brain is 
not right. 

867
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:07,560
It's exhausted. 
And did you feel like you had 

868
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,760
that less this year because your
demo was more kind of 

869
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,440
structured? 
Because I think the previous 

870
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,760
year you said you were just kind
of running around doing the demo

871
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,480
everywhere, all day, the entire 
time, right? 

872
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:23,320
Yeah, last year I did demos for 
basically a full day and then 

873
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,320
people kept wanting them so I 
did them the day after as well. 

874
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:31,720
This year I'm I'm proud to say I
ran 0 demos of Snack 20. 8 

875
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,800
Because I was like, let me just 
see where my brain is AT and if 

876
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:40,520
I feel like I could run a demo 
and have it go well and. 

877
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:44,920
I was just having too much fun. 
I was doing very well selling my

878
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,760
Snack 28 stuff anyway and I had 
a painting class to teach and 

879
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:53,680
that went super well so I was I 
was happy enough with that. 

880
00:46:54,040 --> 00:47:00,200
I would love to find a way to 
demo Snack 28 that doesn't kill 

881
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,320
my brain. 
Because I know people want to 

882
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:05,920
try it out and play it and see 
the board, but I need to figure 

883
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,360
out what that balance is. 
And that might just be drafting 

884
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,760
friends to help me run demos. 
I think that's probably what 

885
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,480
what it is going to end up being
that that that might just be 

886
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,560
like the con environment and 
running demos is not something 

887
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:22,360
that that I can handle well. 
So that might be looking 

888
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,960
forward, like going forward, the
way to the way to do Snack 28 

889
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:27,480
demos, which sucks. 
You want to play with the 

890
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,080
creator, but if my brain isn't 
there, there's no point. 

891
00:47:30,720 --> 00:47:32,760
Yeah, but I mean, even if you 
just structure a little better 

892
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,120
where you're like, I'm only 
going to do like an hour of 

893
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:38,880
demos a day, get two or three 
games in at most and and sorry, 

894
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,240
the board is in the room. 
I'm not in the room. 

895
00:47:41,240 --> 00:47:42,960
We're not doing it. 
Kind of thing, yeah. 

896
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:46,280
So. 
Because I was randomly running 

897
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:47,920
mine too. 
And it's not like it ran it a 

898
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,760
ton. 
I probably ran it maybe maybe 

899
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,600
like 10 or 15 times. 
And there were also times where 

900
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:56,280
people were like, oh, like your 
box is cool, let's play it. 

901
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,840
I'm like, give me, let me sit 
down for like 45 minutes and 

902
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:02,640
I'll come grab you because my 
game doesn't take nearly long. 

903
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:06,160
It takes like 20-30 minutes, but
even then, like I can't imagine 

904
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,600
running it for an entire day. 
Like my brain would definitely 

905
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,840
be fucking toasted. 
My throat would be gone. 

906
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,640
Like a saying once again, no 
like 6 inches and then you shoot

907
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,760
the guy. 
But but yeah, I think the 

908
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,200
structure could help a ton. 
But also like the game is super 

909
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,680
fun and I'm sure your friends 
would be happy to to run it for 

910
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,520
you so. 
Yeah. 

911
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:28,560
The goal for next year is to 
hopefully have snack 28 in a 

912
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,360
booth at some capacity. 
Whether that is. 

913
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:36,440
Like it just the Zen itself 
being sold in a booth, whether 

914
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,160
it is sharing a booth with 
somebody else. 

915
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:41,600
You're trying to get Snack 28. 
It's its own booth, but that is.

916
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:43,920
That's the next. 
Step that I'm hoping to take 

917
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,080
with snack 28 at adapter con and
it would be really sick to have 

918
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,440
my own booth, but I don't know 
if the adapter con people will 

919
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:53,680
be like yes or no. 
So we got to got to wait and 

920
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:55,720
see. 
I think it would be good because

921
00:48:55,720 --> 00:48:58,960
orc or I feel like ORC, the 
brand also has something that is

922
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:04,360
a little bit like, you know, a a
a 90° from the normal stuff. 

923
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,280
And theirs is also kind of, I 
don't want to call it cutesy, 

924
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:08,760
but like the guys are fucking 
adorable. 

925
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:09,960
Like they're they're little 
dude. 

926
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,320
It's called. 
Battle friends or monster 

927
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,280
friends Battle for New Florida. 
It's called monster Friends. 

928
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:17,680
They're friends. 
They're cute. 

929
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:19,040
Yeah, they're adorable. 
Tyler. 

930
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,400
Tyler's great. 
My first. 

931
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,080
Priority. 
The minis are incredible, but my

932
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,120
first priority of stuff I wanted
to buy at Adepticon, I was like 

933
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,680
everybody. 
Back the fuck off that pom pom 

934
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,520
purin. 
I'm just here to make friends. 

935
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,840
Shirt is mine I. 
Was like, that's my favorite 

936
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,280
Sanrio guy and they put him on a
on a shirt that people think is 

937
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:39,880
cool. 
I got to get that. 

938
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:44,040
Yeah, I my bags got full 
immediately at Adepticon, so I 

939
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,880
didn't snag the minis there, but
I knew they're going to brain 

940
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:49,240
dead fest. 
So I was able to snag everything

941
00:49:49,240 --> 00:49:52,520
but like the biggest like troll 
dude. 

942
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:54,760
So I'm gonna have to wait for 
the website for that. 

943
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,920
But I did get the little Penguin
guy and and all the stuff. 

944
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,160
I'm going to make a cauldron war
band and some other stuff with 

945
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,960
those with those guys. 
And then they said the alpha of 

946
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:04,720
the game is coming out. 
So that'll be super fun to play 

947
00:50:04,720 --> 00:50:07,560
with. 
But, but Speaking of Snack 28 in

948
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,120
the future, you said that Snack 
20 is going to be released and 

949
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,240
available. 
So how, how, how is that? 

950
00:50:12,240 --> 00:50:12,840
What? 
What? 

951
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:18,160
How? 
Literally just me trying to 

952
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,120
follow through on my New Year's 
resolution was to e-mail a 

953
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:26,200
couple people in publishing. 
And by a few people in 

954
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,480
publishing, I mean like people. 
That were Instagram mutuals that

955
00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:33,960
were very much like we published
small games and stuff like that 

956
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:35,560
and just see if they were 
interested. 

957
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:41,360
And I got 2 no's, which is fine,
genuinely fine. 

958
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,160
People are like, this is a 
really great thing. 

959
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:47,080
It's just like we're not taking 
on new games right now or this 

960
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,600
isn't quite the right fit for 
for where we're at, but somebody

961
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,160
is going to is going to want 
this. 

962
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:57,920
And then the third, third person
that I reached out to was the 

963
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,640
flatulent and the fool Shane. 
And mostly I just did that 

964
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:05,480
because his little grub logo 
looked friendly and I was like 

965
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,200
the, well, the. 
Caterpillar is very happy to be 

966
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,560
printing things, so maybe the 
person behind it will also be 

967
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:14,880
nice and happy to print things 
and. 

968
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:18,280
Yeah, we just got to talking. 
Shane was like, yeah, I like 

969
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,600
your game. 
I'm mostly like, I haven't even 

970
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,840
really read the rules. 
I just like the art and I'm 

971
00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:24,880
really interested in art forward
game. 

972
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:27,800
So yeah, this is this is perfect
for us, so. 

973
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,760
I've wanted to be a published 
author ever since I was tiny and

974
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,360
realized that they're the people
who wrote books were like real 

975
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,240
people. 
And you could do that as as a 

976
00:51:37,240 --> 00:51:40,680
job. 
So I mean, a self-publishing on 

977
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:43,760
it is one thing, but honestly, 
I'm very emotional about the 

978
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,320
fact that my, my. 
Book is going to be a thing that

979
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:50,600
you can like either buy. 
Online or request through your 

980
00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:53,520
through your local game store 
and, and stuff like that and 

981
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,280
it's going to exist and people 
can get it and play it and have 

982
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,360
a fun time with it. 
And that's incredibly exciting 

983
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:01,120
for me. 
I can't wait. 

984
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,880
I've, I've been super excited 
about this. 

985
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,240
I've worked really, really hard 
to try and make sure that it's 

986
00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:08,120
the best possible version that 
it could be. 

987
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:10,640
And I hope people like it when 
they when they can get it. 

988
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,320
Well, I like mine and I was able
to get it. 

989
00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:17,080
And play it and we're. 
Going to talk about it. 

990
00:52:17,240 --> 00:52:19,560
So that's at least you've got 
one, you've got at least one 

991
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:21,680
right now and then I'm sure many
more will follow. 

992
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:24,320
I mean, you know everyone that I
mean, you sold out of the game. 

993
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:25,680
How many? 
How many copies did you have at 

994
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:29,280
adoption? 
I had 50 copies, which was just 

995
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:32,760
what I could afford to get. 
Printed and I was like, I don't 

996
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,320
think I'll be able to. 
Sell all of them. 

997
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,920
I kept one for myself. 
I gave 1 to a friend and I 

998
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:46,000
traded 1, so I sold. 47 copies 
for money at the asking price 

999
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:49,920
that my publisher told me to ask
for, which I thought I was 

1000
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,400
worried was too high. 
It's $25. 

1001
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,960
And I was like, I don't know if.
And and Shane was like, no, this

1002
00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,640
is this is what? 
People charge for obscene games 

1003
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,960
and yours has a lot of cool art 
and color and stuff in it. 

1004
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:07,320
It's fine. 
So yeah, and I, I, I sold out of

1005
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:12,360
them by before the end of swap 
night on on Friday, which. 

1006
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:16,400
Was crazy there were. 
I did not bring enough copies 

1007
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:19,920
for as many people as one of 
them, but it was it was what I 

1008
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:24,080
could afford. 
I sold out of all of the bat. 

1009
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:28,080
On a worm miniature that was 
that was the big popular guy. 

1010
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:30,760
It's it's always funny to me 
that. 

1011
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:34,280
Like all sorts. 
Who is my favorite of the 

1012
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,400
characters that I've designed 
has never been the most popular 

1013
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,520
one. 
People like Crinkle and the 

1014
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:43,080
honey Bear Berserker much more 
in the first release, and people

1015
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,120
like Bat on a Worm much more in 
the second release. 

1016
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:47,800
Yeah. 
Yeah, I would say. 

1017
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,600
Whose favorite? 
Whose favorite Disney character 

1018
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,160
is actually Mickey Mouse, 
though, if you think about it 

1019
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,640
like nobody's. 
You're right, just maybe because

1020
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:01,440
he's so ever present, like he 
he's not real. 

1021
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:03,440
I don't know. 
I don't even I don't what I 

1022
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,080
think of Mickey. 
I just think all of Disney he's 

1023
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,600
just an extension of as opposed 
to its own individual thing. 

1024
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,480
So I guess it makes sense. 
But I will say, like I think the

1025
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:12,560
original character for me was 
definitely all sorts, was the 

1026
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:17,120
best, my favorite character. 
But now obviously Licorice is my

1027
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:18,600
because I'm just an edge Lord 
piece of shit. 

1028
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,800
Of course, like the bat is going
to be the one that I like. 

1029
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:24,560
And I will say I think I might 
have got the first copy when you

1030
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,640
were selling them and you did 
sign it and you did draw a 

1031
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:30,120
little picture of Licorice here 
for me. 

1032
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,480
So it's all a little sketch in 
there. 

1033
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,840
So yeah. 
Yeah, I was asking people like 

1034
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:38,920
what their favorite Snack 28 
characters were if they had one 

1035
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,960
so I could I could draw because 
I, I, I feel like that's just a 

1036
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,520
nice thing to do when you sign a
book. 

1037
00:54:44,720 --> 00:54:47,520
I stole that from. 
Sean Sutter from Relic Blade, 

1038
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,120
who always draws these 
incredible pictures in the in 

1039
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:52,760
the covers when you buy a copy 
at at like. 

1040
00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:54,360
A con or something so. 
They look great. 

1041
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,160
That's awesome and be an artist.
That's going to be cool. 

1042
00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:00,240
Someone asked me to sign one of 
the books that I was just like 

1043
00:55:00,240 --> 00:55:03,400
giving away and I was like, I 
don't know what I would fucking 

1044
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,320
say and I have no signature so 
I'll scribble the yeehaw in 

1045
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:08,040
here, but I'm not doing this 
again. 

1046
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:12,560
No, for all future things. 
We are not My color balance went

1047
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:17,400
to shit. 
This is white, but but yeah, so 

1048
00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:22,160
that's so So the future Snack 28
is, I'm sorry, where will people

1049
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,680
be able to find this book then 
that you're putting out? 

1050
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,320
Yeah, so if they want it 
digital, it's still going to be 

1051
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,680
on my itch. 
You can still get it for pay 

1052
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:32,440
What you. 
Want I'm very dedicated to 

1053
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:36,440
making snack 28 as free as 
possible as long as possible 

1054
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:40,400
because the world sucks and. 
Frankly, people keep paying for 

1055
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,280
it anyway. 
Like I have made more money than

1056
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:46,800
I expected to off Snack 28, a 
game that is completely free. 

1057
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:48,520
If you want it to be free on 
itch. 

1058
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:52,360
So that's insanely wild to me. 
Thank you to anyone who's ever 

1059
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:55,400
bought a copy. 
The money from Snack has either 

1060
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,120
gone back into making snack 
miniatures paying. 

1061
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,040
Cat. 
Vet bills or like getting home 

1062
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:03,280
improvements done that I 
desperately needed. 

1063
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,960
Like this is it. 
It's literally supporting me 

1064
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:10,200
getting stuff done for my my 
adorable 3 cats that I love and 

1065
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:13,240
our terrors. 
But like, that's so cool that 

1066
00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:15,560
people are just like, yeah, this
is free, but this artist 

1067
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:16,800
deserves money for it. 
So here. 

1068
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:20,200
There's like 5 bucks, 10 bucks, 
whatever, but if they want the 

1069
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,960
physical printed edition that is
going to be available from the 

1070
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:25,480
flatulent and the. 
Fool. 

1071
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:30,320
And they are also. 
And I think it's like the 

1072
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:33,520
flatulent and the fool. 
Dot com I'll be able to link it 

1073
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,640
on my itch and I'll I'll have it
on my socials. 

1074
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:40,680
If you follow Sugar Candy 
Miniatures on on Instagram, 

1075
00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,240
it'll be up. 
There, but that'll be there. 

1076
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:47,240
And they have a distributor, so 
if your local game store is 

1077
00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:49,320
cool, you can try requesting it 
through there. 

1078
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:51,040
They may be able to order it, 
they may not. 

1079
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,720
I don't have full knowledge of 
how that works, but. 

1080
00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:57,760
Hopefully it'll be in a couple 
cool local game stores soon as 

1081
00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,080
well. 
Yeah. 

1082
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,240
So whenever do you know if the 
website's up now or is he still 

1083
00:57:03,240 --> 00:57:04,600
in the process of getting that 
up and running? 

1084
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:09,240
I think he's still in the 
process, but I'm not sure I I 

1085
00:57:09,240 --> 00:57:11,920
should really check in. 
All I know is May 9th is is the 

1086
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,800
date that it's going to go live.
I don't know that the the 

1087
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:19,480
website has officially launched 
or anything yet, but that is 

1088
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:21,040
that is going to be where you 
can get it. 

1089
00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,200
Cool. 
So if you're, if you're watching

1090
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:26,640
as soon as that link is 
available, I will try to 

1091
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:28,200
remember to put it in the 
description below. 

1092
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:30,400
And if you're watching this and 
it's not below, leave a comment 

1093
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:32,280
or remind me to put that 
description in the link below 

1094
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:34,920
because I will not remember this
by May 9th, but I'll do my 

1095
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,560
darndest. 
But on top of that future 

1096
00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:40,680
website where we're going to 
link everything to where can 

1097
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:44,240
people find all of your things? 
I know you said Instagram and 

1098
00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:46,840
things like that, but what are 
what are your, where are you? 

1099
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:50,840
Where are you on the Internet? 
Yeah, I'm mostly on Instagram. 

1100
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,080
Sugar Candy Miniatures is the 
the username. 

1101
00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:57,000
If you see a little logo of a 
tiny little alien eating 

1102
00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:02,800
popcorn, that's me. 
And then all of my stuff is itch

1103
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:06,680
dot IO. 
If you search Snack 28, Snak 28,

1104
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:09,960
it'll come up. 
That's me that all I've got up 

1105
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:14,200
there is snack 28 and then 
because my cat got sick, I 

1106
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:18,120
started selling the bat on the 
worm model early. 

1107
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:22,240
So a lot of people bought that 
to help fund his bet vet bills. 

1108
00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:28,040
But all of the miniatures for 
the the the new release will be 

1109
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,120
up there. 
On May 9th along with the 

1110
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:31,920
updated edition. 
So that's all. 

1111
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:35,760
That's all that'll be online. 
Very cool fiber. 

1112
00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:37,640
I just want to thank you so much
for coming on the show. 

1113
00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,320
It was awesome meeting you at 
Adepticon. 

1114
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,400
And hopefully in the future, 
maybe new releases, campaign 

1115
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:46,560
drops, whatever, and maybe, 
maybe something we might be 

1116
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,040
working on a little bit. 
Yeah. 

1117
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:52,840
Something between the two of us.
What could it possibly be? 

1118
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:56,280
Is Snack 28 gonna gonna have a 
little cowboy? 

1119
00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,320
Are we gonna have Cowboys and 
Snack 28? 

1120
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:04,560
We'll, we'll, we'll, we'll see. 
We'll see for the people out 

1121
00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:07,400
there, but there's a good chance
that maybe Fiverr will be back 

1122
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:09,200
and, and we'll we'll show a 
little something. 

1123
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:13,640
And if you're watching this also
sometime next week, watch the 

1124
00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:15,800
review because that'll be fun. 
And if it's two weeks from now, 

1125
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,400
watch a previous episode with 
that, we'll have a snack 28
