Be the Hero Digital Board Game!

Hello all!

I have been developing a board game on and off throughout the past half year or so.

The game is inspired by Munchkin and Desperate Gods and I am developing it to be played both physically and virtually (And even a hybrid of the two).

I haven’t finished writing the official rules up yet, though I have play tested a great number of times to refine them.

Here are some photos!

A Bit About the Game

It is a fantasy RPG themed game. The current play mode is Last Man Standing, where you essentially try to kill all the other players until only you remain.

There are four classes:

Clock Workers
Shadow Striders
Blood Lusters
Arcanists

Each have their own play style.

There are a few different types of cards.

WILDS

These are monsters you encounter and battle!

B - Before battle do this
L - If you lose battle do this
W - If you win battle do this

ITEMS

Items are obtained as rewards for defeating monsters

Equipment cards are cards that add to your overall strength

Abilites are cards that allow you to take an action you generally wouldn’t be able to do! They are used once before discarding.

I have made a 3D board additionally.

And programmed some basic functionality:

There is still some of the card artwork I need to finish doing as well as texturing the 3D board to look like the 2D board.

Also if you have any questions feel free to ask!

Now this is a nice post! Are you gonna make it online multiplayer? And the dice thingy in the video are just for fun or are you really gonna make the dice be ‘that’ free? like you can throw them everywhere?
Any way, good luck!

Thank you!

Yes multiplayer is very important to this project as you can imagine. I will be learning how to do that and applying it to the application :slight_smile:

I wanted to emulate the freedom of a real board game, so yes they will be relatively free :slight_smile: I will have to put a limit on the amount of dice you can spawn however as you can imagine too many would begin to cause performance issues.

Thanks a lot!

Woaa a card game ! I havent seen much of those lately . It looks great , best of luck on your project !

Looks very interesting. I love Munchkin, and have thought of developing a card game myself. Its a clever move to do digital and physical together. I look forward to hearing more about the rules/game mechanics.

Thanks you two :slight_smile:

I’ll defo post a PDF of the rules once I have finished writing them down in a nice format!

I’ve started to add colour to the ingame model :slight_smile:

A newer video will be coming shortly
