As if I didnt have enough projects to work on I had another game idea pop into my head today. I wont go into the whole game idea but was interested in some input on one aspect of it...the game board.
The game takes place on a multi-level game board.. The difficulty level of the game increases based on the number of levels you choose to use.
Now here is the dilemma....Ideally I would want to actually stack the levels on top of each other a la Star Wars:The Queens Gambit..however the problem then arises when you increase the difficulty level the game being "too tall" for the table. The manufacturing costs would go up too to make the support structure for the game.
Option B would be to not have the boards stack but rather lay them out end to end...the problem with that is that now you need a longer table to play the higher the difficulty level.
See why slow days at work are a "bad thing" ;-)
All levels are needed at the same time.
Basically the board is a building and what happens on one floor affects or can affect the floor above or below it. I could always use both concepts and just split it in 2 so there are less levels on 2 1/2 buildings.
