Cereal Box Game Jam - Post 1



Really excited about this jam. I started about 3 days ago with the basic concept after watching UFO videos on youtube. I came across a video on the Basel UFO incident. I believe it was this video here:
I thought it would be an interesting premise for a game and it was better then the idea I was currently going with, which was a generic cartoon like dungeon game.
I really wanted to make something weird and obtuse, something with a lot of rules and something that took more then just a few minutes to play. While I am happy with where things are going there is still a lot of work to be done. Testing the game inside of Table Top Simulator it's got issues where you sorta don't move health pools, both the orbs and the city sorta stay locked in the same areas. I need to create more synergy between the cards and the board.
I also have a cool idea for the middle grid if I can make it work. I plan on working on it a ton over the weekend, I need to rework the cards and make them work better.
If you are curious about the art and design, I am a designer by trade, I've been a graphic designer for over 20 years, so layout and design and making things look good... come extremely easy to me.... what doesn't is game design, which is where my game will lack most likely, so while currently I think it looks good, playing it for an hour or so was somewhat boring at this stage :P
