first game design day

Today we started in on deigning our card game. The basic pricipal of the game is to use the cards to build a 3D structure. Then each of the two players trys to knock the others structure down using a ping pong ball and catapult. We drew up some initial catapult designs as well as tested out how the slots were going to be cut into the cards, and where.

Sketching is an effective way to work through the game design because it externalizes what you are thinking to your partner and eventually the other people who will try to play your game.

See it you can play through the game (build the structure with the cards and try to shoot it down) taking photographs of each stage.

The game sounds really cool. I look forward to seeing the catapult
