HeroQuest Search Tracker — Roadmap (High-Level) Sticky

This roadmap reflects direction, not promises.

The Search Tracker is intentionally focused and aims to stay simple, stable, and table-friendly.

🎯 Short-Term Goals

  • Minor UI refinements for readability on small screens

  • Copy and micro-interaction polish

  • Clearer visual distinction for disabled rooms

  • Improved affordances for hero-focused views

🧩 Quality-of-Life Improvements

  • Optional alternate board visuals or contrast modes

  • Subtle animation or feedback when marking searches

  • Small accessibility improvements (contrast, tap targets)

🧪 Exploration (Non-Guaranteed)

  • Optional annotations or notes per room

  • Optional “table view” summaries (per hero / per room)

  • Additional board layouts (only if they do not complicate core use)

These ideas will only be pursued if they do not increase table friction.

🛑 Out of Scope (By Design)

  • Full quest management

  • Monster, trap, or secret-door tracking

  • Dice rolling or combat helpers

  • Rule enforcement or automation

The Search Tracker is designed to support the game, not replace it.

I'm very conscious i haven't been working on this tool but i've been so caught up with https://mark-forster.itch.io/heroquest-card-creator/community lately. I'm in the process of wrapping up some key features for the card creator then i'll be spending a bit of time polishing and refining the search tracker and planning out a more clear and detailed roadmap! 🤞
