Ben Brode's Second Dinner Funded, New Office, Working On Marvel Title
In a video update today, Ben Brode alongside Hamilton Chu, Yong Woo, Jomaro Kindred, and Michael Schweitzer announced that Second Dinner is funded and ready to hire a team! For their first title they're partnering with Marvel.
They're currently looking for a Unity Client Engineer and a Technical Artist.
Goodness, Ben Brode could announce the Emergecy Broadcasting System test and it would still sound awesome enough to get hyped for!
Interesting that they jumped right to Marvel, interested to see what SecondDinner brings to the table xD
Legendary fusions:
Goku + Vegeta = Vegito
Xavier + Magneto = Onslaught (also myself)
Now think what could born from a fusion of the best HQ universe with the best development team :)
I just hope it's not a card game.
I don't hate Blizz enough to wish for that. xD
But i am happy for Second Dinner. That's a huge deal.
PLEASE PLEASE. OH GOD! Please don't let it be a mobile game. Someone tell me you can't make mobile games in Unity.
Hearthstone is made in unity.
I mean, if you had the option of developing a game for 100 million potential customers, or 2 billion... Which would you pick?
We all know what Activision picked for the Diablo franchise lul.
Thanosstone, Heroes of Marvelcraft.
Marvel hereos digital card game?
I dunno, the old Marvel Overpower card game was pretty cool. A little after MTG, around 1996-8.
If they can re-create a mobile card game with the style/features of the old card game, it could be pretty cool!
Especially during this huge Marvel movie generation.
Man i chose the wrong department of engineering goddammit! Insurance?Worrying to be paid? Guys just by selling Ben's laugh audio you would gonna be rich!
Seriously though, i am so happy for them and i cannot wait to see what they are planning!
Just so people are aware, Second Dinner updates here are not going to be a usual thing. I know there's a lot of people interested in what Ben has been up to since he left the Hearthstone team last year so here's an important update and no, it doesn't look like we're getting him back :)
You should give the team a follow on Twitter if you use the platform to stay up to date with what they're up to. They also have a reddit and instagram.

I really hope otherwise: while this should naturally be a hearthstone-page; at least when something important comes up; for example it's fixed what's coming and if there is an beta or something BIG to show, then it would be nice to know it at least. We don't need to know every crap; for that are decicated sites here; but at least when something BIG comes up, let us inform about it. Thanks for the update!
Oh if something major happens, as long as I'm here, it's going to end up on the homepage. It's just not going to be covered to the point that people should expect every little update to be showcased here. We'll maybe get to talk about any small stuff they mention in larger updates down the line.
Yes, but Ben Brode played a huge roll in HS. If you like this game, you’ll likely be interested in his next project.
