THE DRAFT
Added 2022-11-01 19:09:09 +0000 UTCI cracked open a new notebook and am currently on the fourth and final draft of the Protect the Sacred mechanics. For me, this is the stage of game development when all the features that will show up are finalized and the pipeline starts to take shape. If anything new shows up beyond this point will likely bloat the process and as such would need to be vital to the final product.
This is where I start writing out the things I left for later like "I'll ask the player 10 questions about x". What exactly are the playbooks I'm using. Initial math. I spent a whole day working getting the dice to feel good.
It'll take a bit, but damn am I really pleased with some of the mechanics so far. I made a giant twitter thread detailing how I'm planning on making my EXP system work.
When I'm a bit closer to being finished with this draft I'll share the list of initial design goals. I hope y'all keep me honest.
ALSO:
On the 28th I'll be running a panel for the online indigenous semifur con Kamu:l A'wee Con.
"The World Needs Your Games: Tips and tricks for getting started creating and designing for non-white audiences" I hope to see you there.
