Team Danny DeVito From Dumbo - Project Ten: Roll the Dice

I am working on the Introduction/Backstory right now. How big do you want me to go with it? 1 paragraph or a few?

I think that 1-2 paragraphs should be enough!

I was thinking we can make 4 “sample” cards for each, what do you think?

@Outbound @Mickeynerd17 what I was thinking we could for the card description stuff is on one slide have a paragraph that explains the gimmick of the card (and that it’s optional for the player to take it) with the front and back of the card showcased at the bottom. Followed by sample trivia questions/chance challenges, in the next slide.

And for the player piece we can do only slide describing them and an example. I believe @Mickeynerd17 suggested making them like the ride vehicles and I’m all for it.

Sounds good to me! I'll get working on it!

Sorry I’ve been so absent… I’ve been with my grandparents all day yesterday and today… I’m hoping I’ll have a few hours at home tonight to work on my part of the project, but I’m not really sure if I will. Just wanted to let everyone know where I’m at lol

All good Goofy, this is a fast round so outside obligations getting in the way is perfectly understandable. Real life always comes first!

Hey all! Just ended my 12 hour day at the office lol. Gonna get home and get some food and choice beverage and then get to work on whatever else needs to get done.

Would it be okay with you if I come up with the 4 sample chance challenges or would you prefer to do those?

Looks perfect!

Unclear, Goofy said they might not be able to work on it.

Sure! You can do the chance challenges and I'd do the trivia challenges!

Just lmk them sooner rather than later so I can add them to the card style (unless you want to design your own card concept art?)

I’ll begin writing them and send them to you ASAP

@Outbound I came up with these ones, please let me know what you think. If you think one doesnt work, let me know, and I’ll rework it.

1. Roll the dice. If you get an odd number, advance 3 steps forward. Otherwise, remain where you are for 2 rounds.
2. Roll the dice twice. If the sum of the numbers is bigger or equal to 7, move 5 steps back. Otherwise, don’t move.
3. Close your eyes and roll the dice. If you guess the number correctly, move 8 steps back. Otherwise, move 4 steps forward.
4. Doom! Roll the dice. If you get a number between 3 and 6, move 2 steps back. Otherwise, move to 10 places behind the finish line.

So there hasn’t been a draft of it as far as I know. I can put something together unless someone else has a good concept in mind.

I've got a few ideas, but I'm currently busy with IRL stuff right now. I should be done in two hours though.

Alright I may be able to come up with something to represent the board. Won’t be my best work as it’s so last minute but this was totally a speed prompt.

 

[Tegan pilots a chicken]

Will it be possible for players to make multiple laps around the board? Or is it just “stay as far away from the finish line as possible”

 

[Tegan pilots a chicken]

Sorry it’s so dim but this is like, an idea I had for what we could be looking at as far as just the route itself. A main route, a couple of “short cuts” (penalties) and a couple of “go back” routes (rewards), which could exist simultaneously alongside the standard “move this many spaces forward/backward” cards and whatnot. Tried to make it feel zany without being too much. If this is cool, I’ll try and actually turn it into something that looks like a game board.

I know I am not on the board design team, but I think having it be the second option would be better. With all the rules we have so far, I think it would be best to keep it one lap per game.

That’s what I was thinking too but just wanted to check. I do think it could be fun if the road connected to itself to enable players to avoid the finish line so long as they can avoid taking the correct/incorrect path. But we don’t wanna over complicate things either!
