i've been working on this board game for almost 4 years now too bad it's impossible to get a board game published in spikeman's economy

i would but i'd need to pay for a master server and steam licenses and i don't have money for a proper dev machine and commission an artist and sound guy and also american disability laws are so shitty i'd probably just end up homeless

The real problem is that he's a legit schizo and he doesn't even make up rules, he just throws shit around as if it makes any sense.

her art sucks i wanted mickergirle to do it but she turned out to be underaged lmao

maybe i'll just do AI slop

unfortunately a windoze computer machine isn't in the cards for 2025 because of spikeman's economy and katie peach doll being broken

i've also considered instead of steam to make it a mobile game it'd work well for that but like i said i'd need to pay for a master server and learn amazon AWS

a physical board game is not happening because all the fees for a patent in the US are like over $1000

if i published the version i was going to publish shortly before my computer got bricked it was heavily flawed (i got a lot better at the game) and the current version is untested, haven't been working on it since march or so

no actually the game is completely deterministic but it's as complicated as MTG or league of legends

i don't post rulebook because i don't want to get copyright/patent trolled

fair enough lole, for the server I'm not exactly sure about how they host it but kart krew uses their website's sever to just store a list of IPs for user hosted severs

like seriously try to explain the rules of league of legends and you'll sound like an unmedicated schizophrenic too

a lot of the problem is the rules are circular do you start with the cards, the pieces, obviously not the spells

the specific phase order as follows:
>resolve damage
>draw cards
>move/attack, play queen cards, cast a minor spell
-OR-
>cast a major spell, end turn

>hit timeclock to end turn

there are currently 12 spells (added 3 and reworked 1 and they probably aren't balanced at all)
>>12422442
not in an extremely long time (got impossible to get people over once covid was over)
>>12422445
you can't do direct connect because there are cards and people would be able to cheat by either seeing what's in the deck or rigging it pretty easily (i actually know how to computer program btw i don't need to do that vibe coding bullshit)

If you want to make a physical board game commercial, my feedback is: Whatever fancy rules you made, its basically a chessboard and playing cards. They already exist, you modded them with unique rules. The physical mechanics need to be something different, eg an hexagonal board and the pieces are animals or some shiz you get me. You could design that on paper and make a simple prototype. Basically start again from scratch yeah? Good luck.

it's like gap between checkers and chess actually

differences between chess and this game:
mana, hp and damage, magic spells
wizard instead of king that can't move
3 armies to pick from, completely asymmetrical game

i was typing up what all the spells do but it doesn't fit in the character limit so here's just a list

- haste
- promotion
- summon
- ice wall
- lightning bolt
- fireball
- meditation
- shield
- earthquake
- resurrection
- flashcast
- sacrifice

i have a doctors appt tomorrow so i need slep and also captchas are failing to load
