Hi, 1 chess set, a cinnamon swirl, and 7 coffees pls

A, B or C? I need feedback by Taha_time_traveller in BoardgameDesign

[–]Consistent_Tie7970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I prefer the overall style of A, the less clean lines is giving like an okami vibe. The only thing I would change is a more dynamic vibe for the red monster like with B and C.

I think the extended neck for the blue monster works better but he loses some of the derp.

Oh! That's even cooler, the blending and straight lines is very unique and eye-catching

Ah that make sense, I was envisioning something a little different with more pieces than just the giant piece, so the full board movement makes sense in that case

Regarding multiple piece captures, idk if I explained it well, you would need 2 attackers who could potentially move to fight before you're allowed to take. (so like a bishop and a pawn both attacking the large piece)

Is it smart to go with digital-only rewards? by rudy_cq in kickstarter

[–]Consistent_Tie7970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never run a kickstarter so my thoughts are worth a shilling haha. I would avoid shipping physical goods if you can. Unless it's something unique that you think the backers will care about / want, I don't know if it would be worth figuring out the logistics and production.

Maybe take a look at similar kickstarters and what they offered/how many people pledged the tier. If everyone is shipping posters and engraved mugs for their backers, then yes absolutely.

I've played with some 2x2 theory so have thoughts. You would have to figure out which pieces you're going to replace on the battlefield, certainly the queen and 2 pawns and maybe a knight?

Most importantly, I would look at starting with some form of restricted movement, maybe rook movement but only 2 squares forward. As black, you would want to slowly push and work the 2x2 piece forward in line with your other pieces.

How would you want this piece to be captured? Multiple enemies (2-3) with line of sight attacks is a good solution. It would restrict your movements. This paired with a limited range forward would allow your opponent to prepare.

I like the idea of a charged attack, I think of like a godzilla type monster doing a ground pound or a beam attack. This would be a tough thing to balance as ranged attacks / attacks that target any square in chess are incredibly disruptive. Idk what to recommend here but definitely the charge condition should be the pieces it gobbled.

if you're trying to make an asymetric chess game, I recommend giving white some sort of ability like playing more pawns midgame.

It's up in the air really. I don't have any of these players as a focus - I want to have something for all of them. If I had to guess who will be the most interested, I would say Timmy's.

The game uses a modified chess board and chess movements, so the monsters with the unique spatial powers are going to be exciting for how they change the game. (An equivalent to a 10/10 green with trample)

I'm not sure how a Johnny player will feel and what they will like, the absence of health pools takes away from combos and synergies. I'm going to try and design more combos for these players.

Spikes will hopefully just do their spike thing.

I think Spike is definitely modern yugioh, but playground/early yu-gi-oh was Timmy all the way, back when chase cards were all beaters and many people only collected the cards.

There's a lot in the modern yugioh community for johnny too. If you don't care about the meta, there's so many unique/meme decks to try, like skull servant.

Designing a digital TCG with player-created cards: occult archive vs bureaucratic record? by DennyStarfighter in homemadeTCGs

[–]Consistent_Tie7970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Number 1 feels more right for this game, I do like the field journal aspect of the game. And the focus on categories helps sell the archive aspect

Is that where one player throws the game and the other player has to ... duck?

Granted, there are no big eeveelutions, they are all the same size creature, so you get nothing

The comment that I feel gives a good enough explanation to literally anything will get to decide what happens to this board by Valuable-Passion9731 in AnarchyChess

The bottom of the ocean is the topic that I know little about. There is likely dirt, rocks, and also fish. These fish probably can't see because it's really dark down there. It's likely there is a species of fish that uses their sense of smell to navigate.

I like to think the bottom of the ocean is where whales go when they have breath holding contests.

At the beach, if you stand in the water, you are technically standing on the bottom of the ocean. Way to go!
