After going through so many iterations I finally feel comfortable with a lot of the components.
2020 JULY
A WHOLE LOT OF TESTING FOR THE NEW BOARD
After replacing so many of the core elements of the game over the last few months, it's a relief to see them in action. The game mechanics have worked better than expected and there is now a lot of fine-tuning to do.
The early game and mid-game are working almost flawlessly now. however, the endgame will bring a whole new set of challenges. but i feel very good about going through every other kind of challenge now that i see so many beautiful components. It's really fantastic how much you can motivate yourself.
NEW PRINTER
I finally managed to send back the FORM3 and I bought a new PHROZEN Shuffle 4k. It is an amazing printer for an amazing price.
Here you see my first test print. It was "interesting".
I am really glad every day that I have the 3D printing community on discord at my disposal to help me overcome these problems.
After all it needed just a small change to print the coins as expected. I really like the look of the new coins and i am eager to see how they look painted.
the early hurdles (again)
yes, in the beginning you have to go through all the motions to make a new tool work as expected.
PLAYTESTING NEW IMPRESSIVE FEATURES
PLAYTESTING & APPLYING NEW DESIGN
As you can see in the gallery, this month has been all about testing the new features. I don't want to write too much about it at the moment as I plan to redo the website and then explain how the game works and photograph and describe all the components.
