Outer Wilds: Race To The Eye

Special ProjectDesign

Outer Wilds is one of the best games of all time. I'm a big fan, my family are all big fans, it's great. As part of me looking for ways to stretch creative muscles for nobody but myself, I decided to have a play with a board game idea that was themed to Outer Wilds, an omage of sorts.

V1 was designed in Affinity photo and brought into Tabletop Simulator for the family to test on a sunny aftenroon in May.
V2 was printed and prototyped and also played on a less sunny afternoon in September.

V3 may never happen haha but I enjoyed the experience of designing the game and learned a lot about game mechanics and things you have to think about along the way. Maybe my next game will be something I can actually sell.
