@foldionepapyrus3441 Жыл бұрын

Indeed, the only thing I worry about a little is the board is so planar and the hexagon are perhaps a little too small to get really creative with. Really needs a second and perhaps third layer just for fun, and the rules probably need to allow for some amount of 'special' tiles that are larger than the standard single hex so we can do more insane stuff with it!

@josuelservin Жыл бұрын

@@foldionepapyrus3441 it's open source, go nuts and do it yourself!

@foldionepapyrus3441 Жыл бұрын

@@josuelservin Very true - however while the initial idea is still a bit more in beta I think it better to hope the standard the Z is creating may be refined further rather with our good ideas in mind than create a fork that may well end up incompatible with the changes we know he is planning. And as I currently lack a decent printer can't test some of the dafter ideas I've come up with yet anyway - magic smoke got everywhere and I've not got around to restoring it yet.

@glowpon3 Жыл бұрын

@@foldionepapyrus3441 What if we made placeholder hexagons you can swap out once the full set is placed? Alternatively you can design sets of them that do the insane thing together but apart are just broken. Doesn't change the rules since the balls will either get stuck or fall off either way. I like the idea of a layered board, then you can have funnels to the lower level.

@foldionepapyrus3441 Жыл бұрын

@@glowpon3 Can also have catapult that hold a marble until the the trigger end is hit etc. I was thinking the best way for layers is just to have the start be liftable 3 or maybe 4 tiles higher than the base as needed. And perhaps with some empty shell tiles that can be played freely above/below the tile you just played as a spacer.

Small suggestion, not a big deal, but a hex grid of 7 tiles across (4 on the on the edge) would have loose synergy with a couple other games. Like Isopath by Pocket 83. Tho your current grid has synergy with Catan. Which is probably a better option. Just thought I would mention it since this is something I've put research into while designing my own games.

@bluephreakr Жыл бұрын

You know this is going to compel someone in creating a hexagonal version of Gridfinity now right? Because it actually seems like a neat idea, aside from working around when hexagons are cut in half and odd remainders crop up.

@drsnova7313 11 ай бұрын

No, it would be a terrible idea for any real-world use. (i.e. storing non-hexagonal things in or on workspaces, containers and drawers that are rectangular). All of the advantages of hexagons would either be irrelevant for a storage solution, or are negated by having individual containers, and not a connected grid of them.
