I first want to extend my thanks to Clayton for the incredible work done on this. He was communicative, thoughtful about my design ethos, & invested a lot of effort in showcasing Script Change. His expertise is noteworthy and undeniable!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A
Clayton took my very rudimentary layout & organization and turned it into a functional design!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Script Change was originally written as part of [Tabletop] Blockbuster, an early design project by John & me focusing on action movie style play. I love cinematic gaming, & had been introduced to the X-card.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wanted more for my safety experience in play, and I wanted it to be portable to other systems. I chose language I knew commonly for the tools, starting with pause, which is my favorite safe word & suited the theme.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The
The Pause card is vital for play & is an approachable way to introduce taking breaks in game to discuss how you want to engage with content, mechanics, or story elements.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I built on it inspired by various concepts – the cinematic fade to black (fast forward), a vibe like Archipelago’s “try a different way” (rewind), and it kept building from there. I’ve updated it often since then, & it’s a full box of tools!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A
There are many tools in Script Change, including some without unique cards, that help players from the start of planning their gaming experiences to post-play when debriefing and follow-up can be valuable.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Clayton took the simple text layout I had and made easy to recognize cards for the table, as well as reorganizing and at times clarifying my text to ensure it was approachable and fit the conversational intent.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cinematic language is similar to the kind of words we use for watching videos, listening to music, and is also pretty easy to conceptualize. It carries on into instant replay, wrap meetings, & the further tools that facilitate play.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A
The new layout is really more usable, functional, and recognizable, plus it’s just way prettier to look at!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I love the feeling of the graphic presentation of the new design, & I am so glad to have this new look & organization to help people play games safer, with better control of content & consent! Thanks Clay!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
