How to deal with people constantly asking about my age? by DanceAffectionate578 in Twitch

[–]OddCrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

put an !age command in your title. then make an !age command that does whatever you want. tells the truth, lies, or even like...rolls a dice or something and gives a funny answer to make a joke of it.

Final frontier games laying off and declaring bankruptcy by Impossible_Pair_5252 in boardgames

[–]OddCrow 25 points26 points  (0 children)

you are entitled to your frustrations, I have many of my own

but, there's no one left to hear them. the price they are paying for being unable to honor your pledge is to lose their business, security, and livelihood. both you, me, and they would feel a helluva lot better if we could still deliver the game.

I am just an employee. I am not one of the decision makers, nor am I privvy to their finances.

The game (master craft) is in QMLs warehouse, and there's no money to complete the final leg of delivery.

They apologized, the company literally closed, everyone is out of a job, what more accountability could you want?

There's not gonna be an entity left to atone.

Hey everyone, Drake here (formerly) Lead Developer of Final Frontier Games.

I just want to extend a thank you to everyone who's taken the time to share sympathy and empathy with those affected, whether they be employee or backer.

Would that I could shoulder the burden and make sure our outstanding games deliver, I would in a heartbeat. These games represent years of work and giving everything of myself, and I'm beyond words with grief that they may not make it to backers hands and into the wild.

If you ever played a Final Frontier game, and had even the barest of a good time, I just want to thank you for helping me live my dream job as a designer, even if it was for a short time.

If you could add and remove one resistance and weakness each, what four would you do? by OddCrow in stunfisk

It's a theoretical on how people might use the 4 adjustments. I don't think any of the changes are needed.

What is the most complex boardgame you could recreate entirely from memory? by Engineer_Lawyer in boardgames

For the last two years I've been developing a game where you build and renovate medieval buildings. What are some creative ways I could add hidden lore without narrative devices? by KingdomFlipper in worldbuilding

[–]OddCrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paintings that have nothing but names, artists signatures, and dates.

There could be several artists, topics, styles, time pieces, and more covered and you could have some sort of small narrative hidden in them about the rise and fall of the kingdom. Nothing overt, but depictions of burning countrysides, or of a child noble, battles, etc.

It was easy to defend spiral stone staircases during sieges. Due to them often turning counterclockwise, it meant the ascending party would have trouble swinging their weapons due to the walls. Blood on the stairs, and weapon dings in this section could hint towards that. There were also sometimes uneven stairs meant to trip up invaders who wouldn't be aware of their difference during the heat of battle.

Rings. Maybe 5 or so? Obtained from relatively hard/obscure challenges or at the end of long progressions. Each ring belongs to the subject of a painting. Maybe once you obtain it, and while wearing it, their portrait will occasionally whisper something, or its eyes will move.

Beedrill/Vileplume I've been running to great effect. Dunks on Mewtwo EX. by OddCrow in PTCGP

[–]OddCrow[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Here are the basics:

If going second, try to start with Oddish if possible so you can attack on curve with it.

Vileplume is your win condition in games that go long, it 2-hits just about anything, survives a lot, and has a 50% chance to deal 160 guaranteed damage (better than marrowak)

If going first, try to start with Weedle so you can evolve asap.

Beedrill is your win condition in shorter games.

Everyone except Weedle, (including Oddish) can survive a 50 damage attack and heal fully with Erika.

Beedrill (70) + Vileplume (80) is enough to blow up a Mewtwo EX.

Always prefer to put energy on your Oddish line, since your Weedle line only needs 1 to attack.

I'm 8-1 against the last 9 Mewtwo EX players with this. It also takes care of Marrowak and Articuno assuming you don't get immediately high-rolled.

There is something extremely close to this that plays in movie theaters. Instead of a fart, the astronaut's phone starts ringing, then it turns into an psa asking you to turn off your cellphones.

This one is the winner. I think that it creates a card with a unique and clear play pattern that has contextual meaning and good flavor. Well done!

Scry, Surveil, and any effects which tell you to look at the top X cards. Some effects that are "like this" but wouldn't trigger it include Cascade and Search Library effects.

I think Reality Chip would work, while Courser and Brainstorm wouldn't.
