Trying to design a competitive crafting game

Onirae · 2016-10-19T11:39:39

Heya! Trying to create a quick, escalating and competitive crafting card game. Each round should not take more than a couple minutes, so you can play a "best of 3" in a coffee break. The project should be finished this week. It's a little something to break the routine. The idea is that a customer walks in a blacksmith shop, and asks for a random item (example: metal hammer) and a quality (normal, legendary, etc). The player is supposed to make that something, or as similar as possible. Limited amount of turns to create and improve the item. Heavily work in progress, but after working for the past few years on serious, "commercially viable" products, I just wanted a silly, quick game. Here are some WIP notes and concepts: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1teKp8-8VeigobIqK6T5PlYyqHCPdpZapKBDyziZX6dI/edit?usp=sharing Please, any comment or notes here or in the doc. Many thanks!
