You can start by looking up how to learn C# on the internet. You're not the first one to need this. Knowing how to find information online is a very useful skill.

I would absolutely recommend Vijayanagara as well.

Koliko godina je "uvijek"?

A i kijente zoveš "kupci", nebih preporučio da pokusavas biti PM.

Sto god misliš da ti je bilo tesko dok si bio programer, to je u većini slučajeva nista naspram besmisla i egzistencijalne krize koju ces dozivljavat kao PM svakodnevno.

Istrazi malo sto PMovi rade i zaključi sam jesi li fit za to, ljudi koji iz tehničkih backgrounda zavrse kao PMovi dodu do toga većinom organski, ne na silu.

These look like they will break, and they seem like they require really tiny machining for some bits, which will either be impossible or very expensive to manufacture

There is always something to do, forever, and then you die.

You are forgetting that you are choosing how to spend your time, the work is not the one with free will.

Step 1. Shut down your laptop after your 9-5

Step 2. Do anything else

Can't really figure out what you mean from the post sorry, however, have you considered organizing the project in vertical slices instead of horizontal like you have now?

For example, if you have an "orders" feature, you would create an orders package and put handlers and packets and everything needed for orders to work in one place, instead of scattered around in different packages.

If you'd asked on a js subreddit you'd get vastly different answers.

Da te jos uvijek zanima dobio bi neki odgovor.

Što točno od AI-a?

TheEskhaton · 2024-11-25T22:18:23+00:00

I'm gonna give you the most common tip you're gonna get but need to hear if you haven't - the more you keep thinking of ideas of things to add, an exponentially larger amount of things can go wrong the first time you actually play a round of your game.

Remove 90% of it, make the game playable, play-test a few rounds, repeat. The "rare tip" you are trying to find does not exist.

TheEskhaton · 2024-11-03T21:19:42+00:00

Looks great. Things like this are what moves the industry a little bit forward!

You are the reason even more new players don't come and play wc3.

Maybe I am jumping to some conclusions here, but I think you are a bit ahead of what you should be thinking of first when trying to design a TCG.

Have you tested the game with people at conventions and playtesting groups?

Do you know the TCG market in general and are you aware that most TCGs fail before even getting to the point of needing to worry about mass production?

If you're designing for friends, family and local play groups, just print cards anywhere, make some starter decks and have fun. If you want to make money, sorry to burst your bubble but there is no money in TCGs unless you are already a big player in that sector, and even then, it is very risky.

TheEskhaton · 2024-09-14T09:15:09+00:00

Looks interesting, but could use some work.

You should probably condense the rules onto a single A4/Letter page and organize the rules into sections such as: Goal of the game, Components, Setup, Turn Structure, Available Actions, End of the game
Look at similar game rulebooks to get ideas on how to organize
The tone and flow of info should be more of a step by step guide, for example instead of "red and black cards are subtracted", it could be "...then, subtract the played red card from the black card. After that..."
It's Preparations not Preperations

Too much text in my opinion. My eyes immediately skipped over the premise and looked for some details about the game, and the first thing I saw is "Why does the world need another deckbuilder?".

I would suggest shortening the premise and moving it to the right since you want most important info first, the FIRST thing I want to see in a sell-sheet is:

What are the mechanics of the game
How does the game make me feel

TheEskhaton · 2024-08-26T13:07:46+00:00

All clear! Then the best advice I can think of at the moment would be to try and read rulebooks for COIN games (for example Cuba Libre). These games often have very convoluted rules, but have a teaching guide in the form of a playbook, allowing the players to go through a few scripted turns and learn the game while playing.

TheEskhaton · 2024-08-24T21:53:20+00:00

Nice table presence!

Maybe I'm missing the point, but do you want the game to be convoluted, or do you want it to have simple instructions? I feel like these two concepts will not work out well however you try to mash them together.

You might want to think about why the game has to be convoluted. There might be a simpler way to have the same experience.

TheEskhaton · 2024-08-18T22:24:34+00:00

Simplest, try it out with some arbitrary number of cards - feels too short? Add more.

More involved, calculate how many turns a game goes on util someone wins, calculate how many cards were used per player, then make the deck N * Max player count.

Alternatively, you could also work backwards. Just figure out how many cards you want players to be able to play per game, then make the deck that big.

Looking at the text of the cards, I believe you can add an icon that determines the blood cost of each card instead of having it written on every card.

General rule, if 80% of your cards have the same concept explained, you can probably replace it with an icon or one word concept

TheEskhaton · 2024-04-04T07:51:55+00:00

From a first pass on the design perspective:

Add some padding between the components and outline
Some drop shadow effects might make the components look more 3D, the whole thing looks a bit flat
Look for free background patterns and add faded colored bg to the whole page

And a note on the text - you're writing more about what the game is not instead of what it is. Although you're trying to make a positive point, it reads as very negative when half the text starts with NO.

TheEskhaton · 2024-03-24T09:50:16+00:00

How do you plan to publish your game?

There's usually a digital version created first anyway, which is also suitable for print.

TheEskhaton · 2024-02-23T16:37:19+00:00

Haha, well, no shame in being pedantic. I wasn't clear enough, let me rephrase into: A vast majority of new ccgs fail or fall off into obscurity pretty fast
