#4: The 2nd cardboard

So here it is. The second cardboard-prototype is finally finished. It took way longer than anticipated, since finding a big piece of cardboard is apparently super hard. Anyway...

....once I finally had it all it took me about two evenings to cut and draw. My template was the Inkscape-File and this time I decided not to use water paint, but only graphite pencils, so I could make some changes after play-testing. This prototype should last me a while and help me refine the gameplay to the point where I can have full matches.

Keep you posted.

#2: Laser-Cutting & Vector-Grafik

In September I had a crash-course in the digital-lab of my University and it gave me a ton of ideas for making this Boardgame. #1: I want to make at least a DIY-version, that can build using only the printer and laser. This way people can make the game themselves if they wish. #2: I want to go all out on the laser-cutting-part and create a beautiful playboard out of wood or some other high-quality material. Luckily I managed to pitch this project as my specialization this semester, so I can spend a decent amount of time working on it and using the University-Laser. Still I think that it will take until the end of November until I have the first laser-prototype. Anyway: Having said all this I know have to make a vector-grafik of my laser-job. I started using Inkscape, since I have some experience with it, but it's taking more time than I thought. One upside is that I can now turn the rings directly in Inkscape. 1st Inkscape-Grafik with new la...

#6: Card-Design v.1

Today I finally get to show off my new card-designs. They are only for testing, but still I put some effort into them, thinking about what information I wanted to display and trying to make them at least a little bit visually attractive. Anyhow, I probably spend way too much time on them. Still it looked nice to finally place them on the board. Sorting out the cards
