i was never into them really, i played magic a bit when i was young. but was thinking of creating one.
just curious if anyone out there was wanting to help test/create things about it.
if i get into it i will be funding all the artwork, the printing and capital costs, but before anything is finalised, stuff would need to go into game logic. (i have the premiss, the main groups, the sub groups and the overall item/creature structure already)
just checking if there are any fanatics out there. as you guys are the ones who would pick holes in anything created.
Can’t say I’ve been into card trading games, but I do remember being in the school playground (as a school kid, not like as in last week!) doing a “one for one” of the other kid’s sweets. Sure as fate there was always some kid who swapped one of his good sweets for one of someone elses yucky ones, e.g. swapping a nice sherbert ufo for a single cherry lip.
a lot of it was already being developed, you could even combine both ideas. ive seen a lot of sites that are like forums/chat in 3d. where you walk into a room and you are a little 3d guy and you can go and talk and pick fights with others in the room.
i would help out with that for sure. a 3d elysiun.com world/chat/forum would rock. and you know their are enought people here that would love to develope little rooms/characters.
the coding or html or whatever would be a nightmare but if elysiun could pull it off that would be awsome!
hmmm… Does Yu-Gi-Oh count? I play with my son all the time and it’s actually a fairly stratigic and very thought provoking game to play. I also have it for my Xbox and it is even harder to play, cause the computer AI is a bit ahead of my son right now.
I used to play yu-gi-oh alot with my sister, but then it got rather silly when I could just beat anybody since I had such powerful monsters, so I went to magic, which imho is a much more strategic game. Don’t get me wrong, I liked yu-gi-oh, but magic is just better for me.
I used to play magic the gathering at middle school. I loved it, especially the illustrations; they were so much better than the cartoons of pokemon and yu-gi-oh. I even scanned a few to use as desktop backgrounds.
Sorry to be taking this off-topic, but c’mon! Pikachu can’t possibly be straight!! Just look at him. He’s cute, cuddly, has a high pitched voice, and is in touch with his fealings.
pardon my opinion. . . .but I think card games in and of themselves are stupid.
Why waste so much time with them? (well, at least the people at my school do. All they think about is little cardboard rectangles with flashy pictures. %| )
School is so much more interesting and challenging
i tell you what, for some reason little trading cards can have a huge impact on you at an early age, for some strange reason.
when i was a kid garabage pail kids were the craze at the time. i loved these vulgar little peices of art. and some how kids related to them and connected with them very strongly. to this day i try and collect them, ebay is filled with people like me buying and selling.
so the goal for you if you are trying to develop somthing like this is to have somthing that all other card games do not.
on a side note www.poundart.com is the site of the creator of garbage pail kids i have had a few email conversations with him. he even let me buy a few of his used paint brushes that i worship, haha.
no get rich schemes will work, you have to be passionate about what you do. ask yourself could you develope on these things making little to no money on a few hours a week for two to three years. the answer to this question is most likely the answer to if you will succed with this idea or not.
find somthing you love to do and try to get rich doing that.
I play Magic the Gathering quite a bit. My buddies and I get together a couple times a month to play multiplayer, and play one on one online sometimes. If you need info about Magic strategy or rules, you can PM me.
