Moving boxes
What does it actually take to run a games business? We take a deep dive into accounting, taxes, regulations, contracts, invoices, bank accounts, paperwork, and all the other thrilling things nobody dreams about when they decide to make games for a living.
What does it actually take to manufacture a tabletop game? We talk about printers, paper stocks, proofs, production mistakes, and the countless decisions that stand between a finished design and a book or box (or vinyl!) on someone's shelf.
Making games is one thing. Moving them across the globe is another. In this episode, we talk about freight, mail services, warehouses, customs, shipping disasters, and the endless logistics of moving boxes from factory to players.
Every game starts somewhere. We talk about where ideas come from, how they evolve into actual projects, and why the earliest stages of design are often the most exciting, all while trying to figure out what this podcast wants to become.
