What an incredible weekend at Protospiel Indy 2026! ๐ฒโจ
We had the joy of being the host sponsor for this year's event in Fishers, Indiana โ and wow, did it deliver. A record 114 game designers and playtesters showed up, filling the room with creativity, laughter, and a whole lot of dice rolls.
Protospiel is where games are born. Literally. Some designers brought their very first rough prototype โ ideas sketched onto cardstock, borrowed components, and big dreams. Others brought games that looked ready for store shelves. All of them brought passion.
Our favorite moment? Hearing designers talk about their iteration counts. One game was being playtested for the very first time that weekend. Another had gone through 700 versions. SEVEN HUNDRED. ๐คฏ
And here's the thing โ that's not unusual for a great product. It just rarely happens in the business world. Too often, products launch without ever being properly tested with real users. No concept testing. No usability studies. No feedback loops. Game designers instinctively know that testing makes their game better. Businesses that embrace that same mindset see the same results โ and that's exactly what we help make happen.
That's the heart of what we do โ and it's why we've been supporting this community since 2018. We're already counting down to 2027!
