Set 17 of TFT is upon us! We caught up with Noëmi Couté, Space Gods set design lead, to learn more about everything she's been working on: the set's new mechanics, the design/development process behind it, and more! This is a pretty wide-ranging chat that really digs into the rationale behind many facets of the game's production, as well as Noemi's thought process from a design leadership perspective; if you like hearing those details, this is a good one to tune into.
