infights!! was the culmination of a school year's worth of designing, playtesting, iterating, socializing, and so so so much more. From the game design perspective, I learned the importance of playtester feedback– major changes were made because of playtesters! Alongside that, I changed my mindset on how iteration works, where ideas are shelved instead of scrapped. Outside of the game design aspect of this project I picked up software like Inkscape and Scribus, learning how to convert the cards into a format better suited for printers. This loop of playtesting and designing went on for months, and it still feels like there's so much to improve on! 

Board games often take years to design; I have barely scratched the surface of what's possible. Finalizing the art, building a userbase, so much that was outside the scope of this project. This isn't something that I see myself shelving, however. I fully expect to be bringing the many prototypes I make to playtesting groups and conventions! Eventually, I want to establish a studio that will work with a manufacturer to crowdfund this game. All of this, stemming from something that I took the time to simply work on. I'm very proud of what I did this year, and I hope to take it even further in the future!
