7	Welcome to the Keen Bean Studio
8	Tabletop Game Corkboard! 💡🎲

10	These are some concepts for games that I (Mal) have come up with. I haven't advanced them further than this point yet, and they may never ever get made. But I think they have the potential to be great. If done right, I'd love to publish them.
11
12	You're a game designer - maybe you see something here that sparks your imagination and you want to design one of these games, or maybe you have a design in your portfolio that could be adapted to one of these concepts. Or maybe you have a design that isn't specifically one of these, but you think might fit alongside them and/or my existing lineup.
13
14	Either way, this is what I'm looking for! If you bring me one of these games or a game like them, then you will have my full attention.

21	👉 A Keen Bean Studio game instantly conveys:
22
23		1) a unique, appealing premise (as a player, who am I, and what do I want?) 2) clear tension or drama inherent in both the premise and the gameplay (what will I be worried about during the game?) 3) a playful and puckish sense of humor (think Pixar: all ages, with frequent nods and winks to adults)

27	🥷 Ha ha! You fool, Mal! I'm going to STEAL your game idea!
28	Okay, you should, and you should pitch it to me so I can publish it, that's the point, duh. But seriously, ideas are a dime a dozen. It's all in the execution. Most game ideas don't make it past this stage, so these might never get made. And if you manage to steal one of these ideas, make it into a great game, pitch it to another publisher and it gets printed - awesome, good for you. I look forward to playing it!
