Production Studio Week 7 ~ 10: Card Game

A long time with no updates! Here's a quick sum-up of what we did. In order to fulfill credit make things clearer, I'm separating them to two posts. This one is for the card game:
  • Implement card discarding to move forward mechanism.
  • Beta test of Race to Nairobi: Water DLC. 
    • ok, it's actually just the addition of water into the game: water can be harmful or useful, depending on if the player that got it has water filter / boiling water to cleanse it. The player either gets hydrated and move faster, or drink the dirty water and vomit.
    • This might be too complicated for children, so we propose it as a DLC, an addition to the core game. 
    • We also thought of a future DLC of nutrition that boosts movement / immunity, so we can release a Black Friday sale of Race to Nairobi: Water and Nutrition DLC value pack.
  • Beta test of Coughing
    • Coughing, 5 star rarity AOE spell card
    • Affects the entire table except you or affects the two people next t you. The effect can be "lose next turn", or "cannot move forward for one turn", or "movement reduced by half", etc.
  • Playtesting with some kids - a 10 year old and a 8 year old. Quite some positive results.
  • Playtesting and rebalancing - Ongoing. Need to make the game adapt to new rules.
