Playtest Broadcast 101: Caterpillar Filler - David Newton (Designer)
Today we meet boardgame designer David Newton and playtest his new game, Caterpillar Filler. Inspired by Snake on the old Nokia Phones, each player is a carnivorous caterpillar on the search for food, players are all trying to eat tasty flowers to become beautiful butterfly's.
About Playtest Broadcast:
Playtest Broadcast is the new collaboration between our local playtest community run by Chris Manley and InGameUK (http://ingameuk.com). Its aim is simply to shine a little light on unpublished games, the games designers and create content that can be used to promote the ethos of game development and culture of playtesting tabletop games. Each session is a blind playtest and we aim to provide constructive and positive feedback for designers to think about, all materials are available for future promotional purposes of games featured.
Please support us. This initiative is funded through our Patreon campaign, as it does cost money to run and with your support we look forward to do much more to promote unpublished games and the very talented designers behind them. IGUK Survivor Tier on Patreon is available for those who wish to support this project. There are some great rewards available:
