Game-A-Week: Storm Clouds

This week on Game a Week we have a simple abstract strategy game called Storm Clouds.

A mix of checkers and Go, in Storm Clouds you play as a storm front attempting to take over a region. Be the last player with any storm tokens on the board to win.
It is meant for two to three players, but could support up to six.

DesignSpace for Game Designers

So I've been throwing this idea around my head recently, of a MakerSpace for game designers.

I'm using Boardgamizer.com to help when I'm stuck.

Superfoods

Just a smattering of game idea for a worker-placement genetic modification game I'm working on:

Players are trying to create a new superfood before the law bans research.
The game is won by putting enough DNA points into a superfood before the time runs out.

There are ten rounds to the game. There are 5 different superfoods you can put points into.
(BannaMeat, Tofruit, MangEat, RizAir, and OkrYum)
Different foods require different amounts of resources.

There is a deck of cards containing actions. It changes in size depending on how many players there are.
In this deck there are
