Hootenanny Games is a Nashville publisher of physical games that break the ice, share some fun, and bring on the belly laughs. ST8MNT had a ball working on the naming, package design, card design, copywriting and crafting the story. Snarkas blasts you up to space where you battle amongst robots to collect gems. For this project ST8MNT defined the visual language, wrote the game story copy, named and developed characters, and designed all the various types of cards.
