(Btw MeBID, I made a correction to the Dirk Canyon Ego interaction, you actually do lose Ego when you lose against him)
Current progress:
I've whittled away quite a bit of art today! It looks like I really just might finish all the art I wanted to do before the weekend. I have 16 more scrappets to draw, and my wife has been helping out with the coloring, so that's great. I've finished all the graphic design for the event cards, and I just need to add some art to two of those cards. All the card backs are complete, with the special cards having a cool ancient tablet look that also doubles as a sort of reference card.
So here's currently my to-do list, roughly in this order:
- 16 2 more scrappets to draw; with about 11 19? additional that need to be colored Scrappet drawing is complete! Only 8 left to color!
- 2 "photos" need to be drawn for the Toy Sale and Stray Cat Distraction cards
- The board! Map area needs to be colored and I need to draw boxes for the Binder, Event, Pocket, and Set-up areas. I can't figure out how the Event or Pocket areas would fit visually with the "hand-drawn map on a table next to the card binder and stuff" look I was envisioning, so I'm just going to draw boxes
- Photos of Mindy with each friend to go on the back of the Kid Ability cards. I've got sketches/ideas of what Link's, Penny's, and Mindy's photos will look like, but I still need to figure out Spiff and Jessa Mindy and Jessa photos are what's left!
After that I'll help MeBID with anything else they need, which would include:
- Drawing a screen design(s?) (which I could probably do while working on the game board)
- Unfriended/Sad versions of each kid. The website I'm using doesn't allow you to flip tokens, and I don't want to use a card template for the characters as that would cause some weird stacking interactions when they're at the playground, so they're probably more useful in a digital version
- Updating/Cleaning the rulebook As far as I can tell, the rulebook is pretty good. I suppose I could add some pictures and examples to make it clearer...
The board game version is complete!!!
Anyway, here are a few of my favorite cards for those of you who don't feel like loading up the prototype
