Greetings! My family and I have only recently gotten into board games. My gaming background is in the Playstation world. I am an art teacher and graphic designer.
Why am I here? Recently, my kids, wife and I purchased Mice & Mystics. It sparked our interest and my creativity started to get a jump start. Seeing my son ask about Colin and what I thought the best strategy would be to collect the most cheese to level up hit a soft spot. For my birthday, my wife got me Gloomhaven and I AM HOOKED. I was inspired to delve into this world and started making form core organizers, painting miniatures and seeking videos on how the whole process works.
I then started listening to the podcast and it directed me here.
I'm currently designing a game for my kids to play. It's in a VERY early stage, but on several podcasts designers suggested getting your stuff out there immediately so I'm taking that advice. I'm hoping to hear feedback on whether or not this game already exists and maybe in the future look into having it play tested outside of our family.
Title is Animal Battle Home
The concept behind it is you play as a variety of animal heroes on an island. The first hero is just returning from Battle School and you start your adventure there. I'm new to this so the following images and attachments are a bit scattered, but I'm excited to share. I'm working on a PnP version of the game, I haven't figure out all the rules yet but the basic game play is you travel to your hometown, people send you on quests via letters in your mailbox, you traverse the mountain, fight a boss, receive rewards, upgrade your home with items to fortify your home for a story ending battle when the monsters have a final attack.
Thank you in advance for any comments or feedback!
Thanks, I’ll keep working on it and post when it’s playable.
