This might seem a bit odd to some, but in the end, mechanics in the kinds of games we make share a lot of DNA with board games, particularly strategy and eurogames. If you’ve ever been over to the Career page on the website, you’ll also see that in most game design postings, we list experience in board game design as a plus. I’m not bitter.īoard games run deep through the veins of the company, and some employees have even published and worked in board games professionally at different stages of their career, from Space Hulk to pen and paper RPGs to Avalon Hill titles. You’ll find people as eager to join in on a quick session of Innovation to investing sixteen hours into a single game of Twilight Imperium.
Here at Oxide there’s a pretty healthy love for all things board game – we have regular after work game nights, lunchtime sessions, Magic: the Gathering draft tournaments, and multiple bookcases full of games both recent and decades old.
Before we get into the weeds of what’s new, let’s shed some light on how we developed the systems in the game, and how we’ll continue to iterate on them.
Now that it’s been a few weeks, we’ve had time to absorb your responses and make changes we think you’ll really like. Thanks again to everyone who participated in our first Technical Alpha and gave us feedback.
