Catvale started as a passion project on Luke’s bedroom table almost four years ago, fully inspired by his cats: Lama & Furia. Fudice isn't a big studio. It's just Luke - designer, publisher, marketer, logistics department, box packer... and a few more hats he’s gladly worn. Catvale was entirely self-funded, and together with a small group of talented artists Luke took a chance on this fluffy world of cats.

Sebastian Bleasdale's love of games started as a teenager when he bought copies of Settlers of Catan and Eupharates and Tigris. His third purchase, Simply Cosmic, resulted in his first game design attempt, as he attempted (and failed) to make it match his tastes. He was deterred from further design experiments until he graduated from Cambridge University and moved to Windsor. Here he started playtesting with Reiner Knizia which rekindled his interest in design. Twenty years later, this interest has turned into over a dozen published games, credits in hundreds more, and a fascination with design which burns as brightly as ever. His latest title to be published by Karma Games is currently on pre-order here: https://store.karma-games.com/pages/wildscape-preorder WHERE TO FIND OUR PODCAST: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5RJbdkguebb3MSLAatZr7r iHeart Radio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-board-game-binge-72500104/ Tune In: https://tunein.com/embed/player/p1344218/ Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5jYXB0aXZhdGUuZm0vYm9hcmRnYW1lYmluZ2U= Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/board-game-binge/id1522623033 Visit Our Websites: Board Game Binge: https://boardgamebinge.com/ Tin Robot Games: https://tinrobotgames.com Elixir Board Games: https://www.elixirboardgames.com/our-games

Sam Barmettler is a game designer who runs Around the Stump Games LLC. Sam got his love of board games from his grandfather and named around the stump after the chess board and set he and his grandfather built when he was in his early teen years. He started designing through making house rules as a kid and his first actual game prototype was made out of a desire to play in the Megaman BN universe with his younger siblings. Today Sam focuses his design and publishing efforts on making games where you walk away with memories of the players you were engaging with, taking a people over puzzles approach to all of his designs. Sam’s latest game, Button Kingdoms, recently funded on Kickstarter.
