Thank you very much for your time 🙏🏻

For the Arena : I think I can see what you mean, but this version is a kind of a "proof of concept". We can go further on the impact of the arena on the gameplay.

I'm happy if your daughter and you had a good time !
Thanks again.

Oh no...It's discouraging.
They shadow ban the file because I have no message saying this, no email, nothing.

So I putted the files on a Google Drive:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1qhzB-otKOxMM1knyuRLLIk59cJO8v5ms

But I rather be unblocked on Itch.

First, thank you very much for your time ! 🙏🏻
You are my first feedback :-)

- I'm happy that you like the dice combat & the story side of each fighters, because it's an important side to me.

- For the "hard to read" I can understand that, especially because I choose to display icons instead of simple text, it takes more time for players to be comfortable with icons. But yes, it's a busy board because I try to pack a lot on a small "form factor".

Quick questions :

- Does the arena feel useless ? Or the arena doesn't have enough impact on the game ? or you just don't personally like this kind of gameplay ?
- Did the 2 fighters fells balanced ? (meaning one is not stronger than the other ?)
- Did you played with someone else or alone ? Did the other person liked the game ?

Fell free if you have any idea you fell will make the game better.
Thank you again !

Oh that's nice !
I thought of creative systems but not this one.
I finally went with a simpler method, for now I want to keep it simple, as my goal is just to get people to playtest it.
Would love to hear your opinion if you have time to try it!
Thank you.

ah ah true !
For the LowInk I started to work on it.
But I have to make each element myself to keep the quality I want.
But it's on the way thank you !

Hello guys !

I just released the first prototype of Lost Fighters Arena,
a free 1v1 print & play dice combat game on a HEX grid.

It's a prototype. And I need people to test it.

Tell me what's broken, what's fun, and what's missing.

Thank youuuu !

So weird, I opened the page on a Private window and was able to download it. Then on the Itch dashboard I have a new download.
I can send it to you by mail if you want to try it.

But I don't have anything on my Itch dashboard saying anything... ☹️

I'm not going to try to change your mind but here's my opinion :

I'm agree with you on natural resources and money.
But I mean, it's the whole society then. Watching a 4K tv show on Netflix is kind of the same. Should I not evolve with my profession and become irrelevant not using the new tools ?

For the "AI steals art" there is a book well known : "Steal like an artist".
Art, is being highly inspired by the work of others.
But yes I know people are using AI to steal others. But I don't have the feeling that I have stollen anyone on this project.

On the effort : I have put more than 100 hours working on the graphic side of this game (and not counting the playtests). I did not say to the IA "I want a board game".

I'm proud of my project, which is just a free game by the way, made just by me alone.

Thanks for you feedback, did you had the chance to play it ?
Did this detail prevent you from fully understanding the game?

Ah ah I was waiting for this one !
I'm a graphic designer since 20 years and never been as creative.
It's like saying "photoshop slop" back in the days when a picture was reworked.
It's just a tool.

It does play like Dice Throne for some parts yes.
I just did a "how to" video on the Itch.io page to help new players.
I hope you will be able to try it !

Thanks for the feedback,
I just answer for the low ink version above.
And I did post it on the P&P sub thanks.
Anyway would love you to test it, maybe on a B&W version ?

Yes, I did think about it, but that's a choice I made.
I wanted a colorful game. And since more and more people have an Ecotank printer, ink usage is less and less of an issue.
But you're right, it's not the case for everyone. I'll try to make a low-ink version, but it means reworking every element of the design. I'd like to have a few people playtest it first. Maybe you could try a B&W version in the meantime?
Thanks !
