I wish you had written this a bit earlier :)
I invented a playing card game and was really excited about it because I got good feedback during play testing. I tested it in few bars and they all liked the prototype. So after making some edits to the game rules from the play testing feedback, I went ahead and printed 2000 decks and I have a website where I'm selling the decks ( http://acardgamewithattitude.com )
I'm not seeing quite the success in selling online like the feedback I got offline.
No sure how I would have tested this concept before printing because its a niche market i'm targeting.
Now i'm confused what is wrong
- Is it the site design
- copy on the site
- Am I over explaining
- Is it not clear if its ia deck of physical cards
Can i take the site down and do a teaser like it is going to launch? and then sell it?
I don't really know what I'm talking about but I'm not sure this type of card game translates well online. In my opinion, the site design is a problem. The problem I'm seeing is that there's nothing making me want to learn how to play a new card game. I have no idea what the answer to that problem is but there's got to be some motivator on the site, I think, to get people to want to learn it. I'm sure once the game is learned people will love it. Maybe you could look at techniques other card games/board games use to get people interested? If you made a digital version of the game, you may also be able to sell the physical card game online?
I agree. I wouldn't buy from this site if they paid me double the cost.
Edit: If you want people to take you seriously, you should take yourself seriously. I am sure the game is great, given the offline response, but online we judge you by your website.
thanks mrbgty for taking the time to look at the site and giving feedback.
"Motivation" site is "Too red"
I have added that to my list of to do.
Thanks.
Anyone else?
Hi
Dont give up. It always leads to something good. I'm mulling on a few concepts to work on. I'm not rich, if my http://justdazzle.me idea picks up then maybe. Or the card game i invented (fucku) picks up http://acardgamewithattitude.com
Let me know hmb143 at gmail
If you want to team up then let me know we can chat to see if wavelengths match. Then we can work on an idea.
I don't understand how you think justdazzle.me will make you rich, or even make you money at all. It's just you playing the lottery and lowering your expected outcome — and the expected outcome for playing the lottery is already negative.
