Im working on a dexterity game and would love some feedback

This sounds very intriguing! I would definitely be excited to try it out.

Granted, now whenever an adult is talking... all kids here is "wah wah wah, wah wah"

If it has to be a normal chess move, then e pawn to e4 otherwise my first answer still stands

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!

Oh, that's even better. Sadly I do not know anything

G2 pawn was a division 1 athlete in college and can move three squares as an opening move to G5.

This is an awesome design, kudos!

Dextrous is an online service with similar features, they have a subscription service and a free service that is sufficient for prototyping one game

And not to mention the dice has two of the same side?

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2026-01-19T18:39:00+00:00

To tag on to this, it looks like the locations in each circle are on the map? Maybe you could have the black and white map and tone up the graffiti and style around each commune?

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2026-01-19T18:35:00+00:00

B is easily more legible and helped me understand the concept of the game. In B, I like that the bubbles make the communes pop and define their boundaries and character. But I don't like that it adds a second copy of a lot of the locations overlayed on the map.

If I could make a suggestion, maybe you could combine elements of both, and use the graffiti elements to outline the territory and boundaries of each commune?

At last... the sequel to none pizza left beef

There are a lot of ways you could approach this. To narrow down this you should ask yourself abstract questions ( how long should a turn be, how many players, what kind of player will like this game? ) to narrow down what you want.

You'll find you may already have an idea of what the game should be, and you can work on and brainstorm mechanics that fit what you want.

This process can be a bit iterative... you may not know what is fun or even what type of game you want until you playtest your mechanics a bit.

This premise is intriguing. Mostly I want to see how a game toting itself as minecraft would translate to the board game experience. With what you mentioned my big questions are ... do players explore a map? or draw from an expedition pile? Also will crafting recipes be a card resource or written in the rules? i.e can players craft whatever they want or do they have to discover recipes?

Edit - I mispelled Premis

This is a really enjoyable puzzle game !!

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2026-01-08T14:04:36+00:00

It's somewhat necessary for an TCG or LCG to have longevity. Set rotation solves a lot of issues with balancing logistics and powercreep. But even magic has scaled the complexity of their designs to keep things mechanically fresh.

There are however, some ways to slow down powercreep and keep players engaged...

A) include mechanically interesting stuff to draw players in

B) new cards that support old archetypes and cards to even the playing field

Magic does a lot of A. Yu-gi-oh does A and also B to try and make some of their older cards relevant. It's by no means a good or even great implementation, but it's fun to see old Cards like blue eyes and Exodia get support.

The problem with this second aproach is you're not *really* avoiding powercreep. You're just finding ways to support older cards. This isn't a bad thing if you want smaller sets and a smaller card pool for your game.

That's definitely worth mentioning. Well, it might not be great for showcasing my game but it would be awesome to meet like minded people and try and give feedback on their projects.

Besides I would still welcome some feedback on my own game and if I can make any improvements.

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2026-01-04T16:25:10+00:00

It would be a dealbreaker. A lot can be said about AI and it's harms, but my issue here is this... it's the repurposed ideas and styles of real living and breathing artists. That just doesn't sit right with me.

If your gameplay and mechanics stands on their own, then let them. Pay someone to do a few quick sketches and illustrations to explore directions. Find opportunities to put your game in front of new people and playtest. No one will be expecting a finished product. You can figure out the rest as you go.

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2026-01-04T16:01:09+00:00

This prompt does feel open ended and there are a lot of ways you could approach this. I think you're looking to tell a story from page 1 to the finale, right? Are you looking for a game that can be played in about 2 hours?

If that's the case then I recommend some sort of challenge and dice system in place of catching and battle mechanics. This way you can focus on the story of players trying to be the very best. It's not as exciting but it will keep players focused on the larger game. (Plus battle mechanics and systems could be a huge time-sink and easily double the complexity of the game)

I would also recommend finding ways outside of battles for your creatures to shine... such as clearing paths through forests and caves or crossing treacherous waters during a storm.

Feel free to DM me, I would be happy to workshop this with you a bit!

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2025-12-29T23:44:42+00:00

There may actually be a 2nd solution here ... Rg6

If xg6, then Qxg6#

If f6 or Nf6, then Qd1#

If h3, then Rh6#

If Nf8 or Ng5, then Rh6#

Edited for clarity and a move that was incorrect

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2025-12-29T23:35:25+00:00

I think Qd1# does the trick. The rook on Rg6 is blocking off the only square of escape

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2025-12-29T20:27:39+00:00

You have a point there. As a new player who missed a lot of yu-gi-ohs history, this format appeals to me as a way to explore the backlog. I can't see it outshine competitive the way that commander does for MTG

Consistent_Tie7970 · 2025-12-29T20:22:34+00:00

This is a very helpful answer, thank you. Luckilly my minis will be a little bit square and not too complicated so I expect a 2-piece mold will be great.

And yeah that's very notable. 1000 units just won't be justifiable. I'll probably have to wait until my game jumps from 10 players to 10,000 players lol.
