If you’re going to @magfest be sure to check out Rock Paper Secrets in @magindiearcade by @insta.gramfors ! I spent the last month scratching my mechanical engineering itch to help figure out how to open a set of miniature curtains with laser cut gears and stepper motors. In this VS game you assign “troops” of rocks, paper, or scissors into specific lanes and when the curtains open they charge forward into the opponents’ armies! Kind of like Auto Battleship. I’ll be at @magfest Fri-Sun, can’t wait to check out all of the games!
