Yea, so, as you might know I've been posting a lot of board game stuff on here, and recently, I've been wanting to make my own. It could be CCG or non CCG. Whatever the most people want. I don't have many ideas so far, but I was thinking of maybe making it like Duel of Ages, or in a pinball table. (I know, they're wacky ideas.) We might also make expansion packs. So here is the list of people I think I'll need. (They may be adjusted)


Head - plinkojerome



Co-Head-Person -


Artists - - -
(3)

Ideapeople - -

(2)


Designers - -

(2)

Advertisers - - - -

(4)


That's about it, but like I said, they may be adjusted, because I might've forgot some or need more or less of something. But now I need to make a form to fill out

Awesome! You are definitely in! I also play a lot of MTG and stuff so I know what your talking about. I'd add you to the list now, but it won't let me since I'm a new scratcher, but i'll add you as soon as it says I'm able to.

Why you would be good for this job: After a while, programming in C++ (and other similar languages), you begin to think in an abstract manner, really helping you come up with original concepts
How long you have been playing board/card games: I've been playing board/card games for a long time, though recently I've been getting in to more complicated ones
What board/card games you play: I used to play Pokémon, also cards against humanity, and recently have been playing D&D
What kind of ideas would you come up with?: Defiantly strategy/rpgs

On another note, the only real positions needed are artists and designers, the artists playing a more passive role, focusing on the art style from a design perspective and the designers coming up with actual concepts, and the head/co-head playing an even more passive role, managing the team's priorities. The “idea generator”, is the role of the artist/designer, since an “idea generator” can create a situations that can't work with the current systems, that's why in small game dev. the programmers are the “idea generators”, also the advertiser is not needed either, the head, designer and artist can all advertise and a dedicated, staff member will usually get in the way.

Also, how will we communicate? Skype seems like the best way, email is usually inefficient for any real collaboration. Anyways I'm probably going to start working on some basic concepts right now!

Collaborations go into the collaboration section.

Yup! Unless this isn't being made in Scratch, this belongs there. Moving.

How long you have been playing board/card games: Well, lets just say a long time! I love to play board games and card games! I played chutes and ladder and candy land a lot when I was little,and now I like playing lots of different card games,and a variety of board games.

Hope you like it
Please consider me,and let me know when you come to a conclusion

Okay, well, from reading your application, you are definitely in! I guess you're right about the stuff with the positions, so if anyone requests idea generator, I'll just put them in as designer. Well, the way we could talk to each other, I'm not sure about, my PC has problems with storage and might not be able to have enough space for Skype (It seriously only has a couple hundred MBs), we could text on Kik or something if you have an Idevice. Googledocs would probably be good to use, and maybe email, for more announcement type things. And it's good that we play the same games, because I'm thinking of making a game like that. I'd add you to the list, but for some reason, scratch won't let me edit my first post, but you're still in.

!!!!!ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!! Advertisers, and Ideapeople are now closed. If you wanted to be an idea person, you will probably be placed in a designer spot. Once we have a full team of people, that will be enough to advertise anyway.

Okay, so I reviewed your form a couple times, and you are probably in as a designer. The only thing was, was that the games we are thinking of making might be a little different then yours, but, you can probably still help out. You're in! BTW, I think 3 designers will be it for now, because I already extended it by one, and it seems like that's enough.

!!!!!!!!!!ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!!!!!!! The Designer spot is closed for now, if we need more, I will make another announcement.

Oh,Ok,I dont really know what kind of games,but I will try and help out as much as I can!

I'm currently making a WW2 Risk on Scratch! Good Luck with your game!

Should we start thinking of some concepts then?

Yea, we don't need artists this second so we should.

I'm not sure, anybody got some ideas?

First I would like to know what kind of board games/card games you are talking about! When I do know,Maybe I can give some ideas.

Here are some ideas I’ve come up with. I would’ve posted them sooner but the website was down.

Yin & Yang: A Ninja CCG where you try to disrupt your opponent's yin and yang balance. I’m not exactly sure the details but something like that. Each ninja would have a power, attack defense, range, level and (sometimes)an ability.

Prospering Armies: This one is my personal favorite because we could pretty much do whatever here. The possibilities are endless! A game where you print out maps and battle with cards on a large board. You move units, have fights, buy items from shops, etc. This game would be super cool if you have printable maps and such so that the game is different every time. Plus, if needed I can program a random terrain generator and print thing for a formal website.

World War II: This would be like a D&D game but set in WWII. We could add grids like some D&D games or not. We could also add character cards or not. This idea would require a lot of writing for some sort of intense manuals like D&D probably.

This should be moved back to Making and Creating as it is not being made in scratch.
