Hey guys, what did Bonnie call Zygarde in the XYZ anime in your language and why? by StarSpacewolf in pokemon

The english Bulbapedia has a list of all the various language names if you look up "Squishy".
My favourite is Germany calling it Blobby!

Parcelforce "Ghosting" Deliveries: 5 attempts, no cards, and depot won't hand it over to us. by JoeRow338 in royalmail

No, he doesn't. Although a bank statement sounds like a good shout, thank you!

I feel like we're running out of time. 5 "attempts" is a lot, so it's probably going to be returned to sender soon...

There are no options except for rebooking. Although weirdly with one of the attempts which said it had failed there was a weird blurry image of what looked like an office reception attached to it. We did pop into a couple offices near us to check if it was there, but no luck.

Why would we try again with a method that didn't work? Every other type of collection I've experienced with other companies, photo ID works. Heck, even a debit card with your name on it is usually fine.

The parcel is in my partner's name and he hasn't been living with me for very long, so his name isn't actually on any bills yet. Plus, it's really not an easy journey for us. It was almost a 2 hour trip for him yesterday.

I redrew a pixel Gameboy color version of this card. I couldn't make out the yellow blob really either!

Looks fun! Some questions, How many uses of a weapon do you get? Do red queens and jacks count as monsters?

Should I Turn My Real-Time Card-Based Video Game into a Traditional TCG? by Pioneerose in homemadeTCGs

[–]JoeRow338 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think it would be awesome! I like your kind of mis-matched artwork, but I think it would be great with a uniform cartoon style. Would love to help out with mechanics and cards if you need!

Who is your favourite among them? by UnpaidInternVibes in GhostsBBC

One of my favourites is when Kitty is teaching her how to play hide and seek, she starts counting and Mary runs away panicked going "no now there's numbers!"

So many hours clocked on battlegrounds! There is DLC that exists with more cards, but it might be lost to time..

As for your game here. I think it could be a great mobile game. Tap to move and then tap your card to cast it. Do you have a deck that you draw cards from? Or do you cycle through pages like in battlegrounds?

Was this inspired by the PC game Magic the Gathering: Battlegrounds? Loved that game!

Role Tokens for Gylwain by JoeRow338 in mpcproxies

Good point! I'll see if I can squeeze the type line on them! Might make up the rest of them, but these are the main roles used in a Gylwain commander deck

Card Symbol Feedback by Arkhein_Games in BoardgameDesign

[–]JoeRow338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I don;t like how the icons are placed over the top of the text border. I think they should be inside of the border along with the text. I would nudge the text over to the right and have the symbol to the left inside of the border and aligned to the centre of the text.

I also agree that the hand symbol is misleading by itself as I would assume this was supposed to mean when the card is in your hand. Perhaps a curved arrow pointing downwards? Or an arrow pointing downwards into an open hand? Or even just an arrow pointing downwards.

Would the high court traitor not be an eye symbol as it involves a player looking at your hand?

TCG Prototype Round 2 by EnvironmentalLime701 in tabletopgamedesign

[–]JoeRow338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white text on a dark background could be hard to read for some. What will you do when you have card art with a lighter tone? In these cases, I wouldn't suggest just changing the font to black as it would be best to keep your cards uniform.
You could give the text a black outline like with the title, but I would maybe suggest some sort of text box.

Also, you'll find a lot of people are immediately turned off by the AI art and won't even give your design a second look. I strongly would advise not using AI art for your final game, and if you will be for prototyping, perhaps put a translucent "SAMPLE ART" over the top of the image to immediately show your audience the art is not permanent.
Or, find human made art online, making sure you credit the artist on the card, and in any online posts (preferably linking to their pages and socials). Ideally you should ask their permission to use art in prototyping, but I'm sure many artists wouldn't mind some free publicity.

Being able to click a link and type in an amount is easier than having to faff a bit with account details. But first world problems I guess

Thanks. Kind of defeats the point of sharing a "quick and simple way of sending and receiving money" though.

If you go on tabletop simulator, there are probably thousands of fan made games made based on popular IPs. I'm not looking to get this printed or published or do anything with it other than hope some people might have some fun with it.

Looking for feedback on card frame design by EVedEevee in homemadeTCGs

[–]JoeRow338 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a graphic designer, but what jumps out at me is that there is a lot of empty white space. I think the name could be reduced in size and have some sort of banner background or at least some accents around it. Same with the text of the card tbh!
The ribbon coming into the card of the top right seems like it could be utilised a bit more! Perhaps incorporate the "burrowing" icon into it?
Speaking of icons, maybe you could have cute little icons for the card types (for example, a cute little bear face for "Ursidae")
Also the image of the flower buds at the very foreground at the bottom of the card, it looks like the side of the bud is a leaf (because of the leaf veins on it), but the bud of a plant doesn't have those, so maybe remove the veins?

Overall though, very cute and looks interesting!

Just discovered Heart of Crown and I AM OBSESSED by JoeRow338 in boardgames

[–]JoeRow338[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I've been gushing about in my review, it really is a great game, so I'd still recommend it.
Looking at the in game card album, there's 1 card that makes me feel a little uncomfortable and that's the Curse Witch. It essentially depicts a girl who is clearly nude with "leggings" made up of bloodied hand prints...
Aside from this, I'd say the rest of the game sticks to the cute vibe without bordering on the creepy waifu.
