My game is going to be an SCP board game, acting like a trading card game, but all the cards for both players are already in the box. The whole idea is to contain or neutralise every SPC (20 in total, two copies of 10 SCPs I have chosen myself) by either using containment cards of varying strength or playing SPCs or SPC Staff to fight the opponents SPCs or SPC staff, with the addition of ‘assist’ cards such as mobile task forces, a nuke, and an instant breach card that allow you to choose an SCP in the opponent’s containment site, then let them breach into their breach zone, where they will remain until recontained, or move somewhere else upon the activation of a containment breach ability, which may be instant or after a certain amount of turns/relying on certain criteria to be met.

It's gonna be made in a kinda special way which I couldn't find any videos on how I could do it the way my board will be designed. If you see this comment, could I possibly ask you to answer if you wanna help so I can get into more detail? I have the genuine idea of how it should look, but because of how it's designed, I have no idea how to produce the board.

@TIMORUMGamers5 жыл бұрын
Video game and board game design have some big similarities and often times are doing the same thing - one is digital, the other is analog. The benefit with board game design is that you don't need to have programming experience in order to build a game. However, that doesn't mean that board game design is easy. In a video game the computer is managing all of the rules for the player. In this aspect board game design is much harder than video game design. Try creating a game with depth that is also easy for the player to understand and follow the rule structure... it's very challenging. With that said, go for it! Board game design is a great way to get into video game design! Let me know how it goes.

It depends on how many cards their are and any other components in your game. To get a decent idea of what the cost will be, I would suggest you head over to The Game Crafter and enter in all of the components and see how much the total comes out to be. That will be your base cost. Then, the final price will depend on how much you are looking to make in profit. Let me know how things turn out!

@TIMORUMGamers6 жыл бұрын
I would suggest that you throw together some quick rules and create a mock-up game; your next stage is essentially creating a prototype. However, you may need to do a little more work to figure out some base rules to get things going. I would highly recommend checking out the next few videos that I have on both mechanics and prototyping: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hMCZq7efqKfNqH0.html
@jackgillett7784 жыл бұрын
Once you have concept, and once designed. How would you recommend the next stage of creating a prototype and turning it into a product. Thank-you
@TIMORUMGamers4 жыл бұрын
When you think that you're done, do more playtesting. Then, update your game, and perform more playtesting. That last 10% of game-creation is oftentimes the most tedious of making an iteration, getting feedback, creating updates, and then playtesting once again. Many games fall flat here. With that said, when you're done (to an extent - you're never really done), you will want to go from prototype to an ALPHA stage - this is where you have your rules 95+% complete and you're just working on optimizing the UI (artwork). At this point, I would suggest work on finding an artist to begin building components to a more "finished" state. The prototype should just turn into a better, more professional prototype.

Who's your customer is not a good question. It's a Biz question not a creative question imo the best games and all creative endeavors were made with only the joy of the creator in mind. Not enjoying yourself or sacrifice passion for profit is a sure-fire way to get burnt out on an idea you don't actually like. The idea that gets you fired up is the idea you will push through to the end.! if you don't follow your heart in the beginning the end will be a heartless slog in a swamp of willpower sucking servility where you will continually question why it is you started the thing. Every hero and every praise worthy endevour in history started with nay-sayers saying they could never make money doing x.y. And z. Now people like Rodney Mullen and Arnold schwarzenegger of success. Don't think about the money kids think about the fire in your belly. "Do I love this idea enough to suffer pain sacrifice and ridicule?" That's a question worth asking.
@TIMORUMGamers6 жыл бұрын
I appreciate your input and I agree. Any art form requires for an innate desire to design something that you personally are passionate about. If there was no passion, you wouldn't be putting in the hours upon hours of hard work, discovery, testing and all the rest. The question you're asking is the question that you must start with. Perhaps it's a subject for another video.
