Start of a new project

Hello happy people. After a long time of silence so is it time to start blogging again with a new school project.

This time it is for the game course “Big Game”. The course end goal is to to create a “big” game during 8 weeks.

ReadySteady(Wip)

“Ready steady” (working title) is an mobile deck building game where players have the ability to play wherever they want, whenever they want. You play as a hired agent, who have been tasked by a company to retake their stolen “Super Secrect Techology” from the black market. While on your mission an opposing agent have appeared and it is now up to you to use all your contacts, gadgets, credits and services to achieve your goal. Get the Super Secret Technology back before the opposing agent does.

This is a deck buliding game, a game where the focus is to craft the deck, while playing the game. The players are able to do this by buying new cards to add to their deck. These cards can be action cards that attacks the opponents, give the player temporally beneficial effects or allowing for further customizing the deck. 

A example of an attack action card is Mugging: “When you play this your opposing agent discards a card at random”

A set number of each card is randomized out at the start of each game, witch will allow the game to feel different each time the players plays the game.

In order for a player to win the game he or she must buy information cards and place them in-front of them. Once a player have assemble a set number of them he or she is given the information of the Super Secret Technology and wins the game. 

Play it while on the go

This game will be created for touch screen devices and allow players to play it “Quizkampen” style( Notification style game-play? Not sure there is a term for it yet). This allows players to take turns whenever they want, wherever they are. This will also allow people who enjoys deck building boardgames but does not have the luxury to find people and/or have time to play, to much easier play the game they want.  

Going Foreward

This have been a brief introduction to what I am working on. More detailed rules and individual cards are coming up in the next couple of days. The upcoming weeks will be more detail reports of what I have been working on and the struggles and succes that have come with it.

Until then.
