First off, I printed out the game and played it last night and enjoyed it. I was impressed with the quality of the artwork and how everything turned out that I put together. Thanks to everyone involved in creating and providing the files for this game.

To my question, it looks like if I use a corner rounder that I will cut off some information on some of the cards, specifically the numbers in the upper right of the Event Cards. From what I can tell, the Artscow cards which have rounded corners look fine. Is there something I can do for printing at home to allow me to round the corners without cutting off useful parts of the card? I have a felt tabletop and the square corners tend to snag on it, plus I think the rounded corners look more polished.

A bleed area would have been great on these and the tiles as well. Has anyone gone through the trouble to add a bleed area and cut marks to this set?

Hey Kevin!

Glad you enjoy the game. And thanks for the compliments.

It's my fault. I didn't provide a bleed area on the cards, since I never thought the game would be printed by so many people (had I known back then...). The ArtsCow card files do have a bleed, but it was a pain to add, let me tell you, because I did it once there were already some expansions out.

Now the thing is, the game very well might be printed one day, in the not-too-distant future, so I'm not eager to upload new versions of the cards for now. Sorry.

Maybe if you cut really, really small corners... ?

Peace,

E

I can imagine the amount of work it would take as I was considering doing it myself for fleeting moment, then I looked back over all of the files and the number of cards and came back to my senses.

I may go for the tiny rounded corner method while I await the commercial release of the game. Thanks and good luck getting it published!
