Do you find that when you're designing a fresh idea you lean more towards thematics, or mechanics? I know it's constantly shifting (for me anyways) but I'd love to see if you feel you tend to do either one more than the other. Do you ever change an idea thematically (with absolutely no mechanic changes) and feel you need to change a lot of mechanics because of the thematic changes, and vice versa? Thanks for your time, Edmund.

gameplay is always number one, i can become inspired by a theme and focus mechanics around it but its those mechanics that hold most weight so i tend to try to make them as synergistic as possible reguardless of whati start with
