They gave Kickstarter backers a preview of this intro last week, and I've been smiling since (and also rewatching it a dozen or so times, why not). I think we're in for some good times. Yes, in fact, we will join you.

I know I'm watching an interview *about* Big Walk, but I'm afraid all interviews on any topic from this point on should be conducted in Big Walk. It's just too good. (It's a great interview, by the way: Highly recommended, perhaps once you've played a bit of the game yourself first?)
Behind the Sound of Big Walk
Em Halberstadt and Nicholas Zhang take us on a BIG WALK while discussing the audio process behind the game.

Ooh, I do love a game of "What order could these possibly be in on the server side?". I think… I think I lose this round, because I have no idea.
Wile E. Coyote is doing a reddit AMA right now for Coyote vs ACME and strictly answering through signs, and it's genius.
i called 911 and they answered quickly and our conversation was: "are you calling about the fire next to the freeway" "yes, thank you. goodbye" "goodbye"
A low bar, I'm aware, but it's sort of refreshing to see these spam texts sort of give up the whole façade.
I've been getting nonstop spam texts and calls for the past few weeks, all for a "Joe". So when I got a normal political fundraising text addressed to me, it felt kind of nice.
Just as Ludwig returns for a second series, I found out that the soundtrack was released on #vinyl for last year's Record Store Day. Naturally, I had to pick up a copy. The track list on the back is a lovely touch. The insert also features an acrostic puzzle.

Yesterday was International Crokinole Day, so… I played crokinole! And also Wingspan Pocket and the second chapter of Adventure Games: Monochrome Inc. (not pictured). I'm still not good at crokinole, but honestly I prefer it that way. #boardGames
How do I explain to small business owners that the menu on the left is one billion times more appealing than the one on the right
there's nothing else left for me in Big Walk: no secrets, nothing else. but I still can't stop thinking about how special and wonderful it was, especially both endings. i think in a year or two it's possible i will consider this one of my favorite games ever.
Well, that's 100% on Big Walk. And wow. What a heartwarming and touching experience that was. My partner and I both loved every minute of it. To @househouse.com, @panic.com, @ashellinthepit.com, aksfx, and everyone else who made this incredibly special thing possible, thank you.

This past week has been mostly taken up by Big Walk, so no #boardGames. But last week I played Duel of Meloch (from @stonemaiergames.com). I've been looking forward to giving this one a try since it was announced, and it was super fun. Can't wait to test out some other matchups.
It's been really nice being behind on Only Connect, because we've had so many episodes available to watch. But the problem with having so many episodes available to watch is that we've now caught up and are short on episodes again. Hmm, how many of these old questions do we think we remember? 😄

Big Walk is a game about learning to communicate with others so well that you reach the point where you both try to push the button to close the door at the same exact time and therefore end up confused about why it’s not working.
If there's ever going to be Big Walk merch, I really want a gourd (That's what we call it; you know what I mean.) and a little case to put it in. …and it's got to make the sound.
Big Walk is such a phenomenal game. My partner and I have had a wonderful time and simply could not stop playing. The atmosphere, the puzzles, the design. Everything was just so enchanting. @househouse.com and @panic.com (et al) have really made something special here. Thanks to all involved.
Asbestos is pretty great. Naturally-occurring *and* fire-resistant? Sure, people harp on the "downsides". But every contractor is using it whether they admit it or not. It's here to stay. You're getting left behind. There's literally no other option. I mean, what would you honestly do without it?
Big Walk taught us sports. This is how you sports, right?
It's my first time being on this end of a Bandcamp Friday, and it's exciting! We had a lot of fun putting this soundtrack together, so if you're looking for a reason to fire up your CD player or a little background music for your next cribbage game, check it out. 😄
It's #BandcampFriday, and Blanche has got just the right tunes for a weekend of card games. Grab yourself a comfy drink, a deck of cards, and a copy of the Carte Blanche Original Soundtrack. Available now on 7" vinyl and 3" Mini CD (as well as downloadables). christopher-david-yudichak.ba...
