So after the launch of our initial product, the Pure Steam Campaign Setting, the ICOSA team partnered up with our friends at Dungeon Mastering.com to create a monthly article series that delves into the behind-the-scenes process of Pure Steam's initial creation and continuing development. We like to call this series, "Behind the Gear-spun Curtain: A Purely Steampunk Look at Game Design."
Last month, Pure Steam's creator, B'omarr Punk, shared his views on the business side of game design. The article can be found here.
In the coming days, we will be posting this month's article on our creative process behind game design, and a share a little sneak peek at our next Pure Steam campaign supplement, "Westward."
Stay tuned!
The April issue of "Behind the Gear-spun Curtain: A Purely Steampunk Look at Game Design" is up! View it now here for a glimpse into our game design process, and a sneak peek at our next Pure Steam campaign supplement, "Westward."
We welcome your feedback and comments!
