Finishing Touches!

This week we worked on finishing up our card game and making sure that it was good to go on Wednesday.  Our group met up three times this week to make the finishing touches on the cards, to solve any problems that we had with the flow of the game, to create the final cards, and play the game ourselves. Although it was stressful and overwhelming when one little detail became a problem and we would have to rethink the fundamentals of the game, we were able to pull through and get almost everything sorted out. One main issue that kept arising was that the game either became too complicated or too boring so we had to find a good balance. We found that one of the hardest things about game design was learning to compromise and realizing that we can't please everyone in terms of rules and methods. Apart from some differences, all of us knew that the main objective of game design was to make sure the player has a good time and would want to continue playing. In terms of achieving this, our group did a fairly well job and we just expect that it all goes well on Wednesday. Let the battles begin? We think YES!
