Update : Dymino Monsters.

New live interviews with BC Games on the Younow.com website next Saturday.

Its a great opportunity to show all of your game demos there if you want to recieve a new audience for marketing.

We had our first interview with BC Games a few weeks ago. The game designer and owner asked us to interview them. So we did. It was pretty cool.

This interview was after the fact of having David Dylan of Be Legend: Ragnorok asked us to interview him. So two months back I wrote on my fb page that I was going to start interviewing new game designers in the future for fun and see how it goes.

So for right now. BC Games has taken the opportunity to do the interview. Its such a great time to meet and greet with new game designers or startupgame companies from around the world and share advice, knowledge in game designs and productions.

Happy hunting,
Stormy.

Check out Younow.com and search for WaywardTProductions777.

Meet and greet with my long time friend Grant who has been in movies and t.v. as extras and is or has been creating some card games.

I told him that I had an idea for the younow.com.

My idea is to have a real time game development with the audience from around the globe where we teach the basics of coming up with a board or card game from total scratch and prototype it there on screen and for the audience to take those ideas, their own drawings , concept etc to design and teach others.

In our last three sessions and one other live game session with Supertooned (my nephew) we came up with three brand new games from scratch and we had some live feedback developing the game live. Which was pretty cool.

The audience was small for now but Grant (WaywardTproductions777) has been doing more #MakinggamesLive on the younow.com channel the last few weeks and just had one tonight at 07:30 p.m. Eastern Standard U.S.A. Time.

See you all there.

Good evening everyone,

Here are the newest updates on Dymino Monsters.

1: Stone Bridge prototype play mat has been drawn three weeks ago and is still in black in white. We have come up with a color scheme to it as well. Just haven't color it in yet.

2: Waterfall prototype play mat, wooden bridge play mat and a few other play mats have been pre-designed before commencing onto the large scale prototype play mats.

3: Archive Soldier Weapon Skill Technique list has finally been worked on and came up with some neat details combining other deck sets in the play to help out the Archive Soldier.

4: There are still 5 weapon skill technique list sets to complete and that will be soon.

5: New locations and monsters have been created during June, July and August of 2016.

6: The first novel is still being worked on and will be changed from a novella style format to a transcript format. When that will happen? Next year. Due to other projects in the works now.

7: No new play testing has been done since June 2016. Been pretty busy with other projects in the works that have started November 2014 and those projects has also come along way since August 2016.

8: Other newer smaller games not part of the Dymino Monsters Universe has also been started, acted out and started out on those projects to just get something on the page.

So far so good.

Stay tuned for more updates.

I started drawing a new play mat Sunday night and finished shading in the play mat last night while watching the Presidential debate. The new play mat and the future of all play mats will not be shown, but rest assured I will announce the newest play mats start and completion dates.

I am also still working on the last weapon skill technique deck for the mimic artist. I and my play test / staff members have been working on our other projects at the same time and also have been enjoying the weekend at the local park while LARPING.

Other than that, that is all that is new for updates.

Stay tuned for more updates.

Stormy.

Yes, the title is the same from a previous post here, but I went back to change some skill techniques to the others and got them completed.

Tonight while at the local laundry mat, I started working on the Whip W.S.T. I completed 24 of the prototype cards from the list. I messed on two cards, but that is okay. I jotted down each attack point system to each number on the list and began the text.

I think I can get the rest of the whip list completed tonight before going to bed.

Then to allocate the attack and defense point system to the Dagger Fan and Mimic Artist and Book W.S.T. cards.

Then to work on the last 7 remaining chapter decks for this first novel franchise series. Then after that, I will work on the drawing the prototype play mats for some of the locations in the story line.

So far so good.

Last week I have calculated each deck number that has been completed and for the remaining decks with an estimated guess on how much each chapter deck will contain. That total is 3,592 cards.

That is correct. Again even if this game makes it to my customers, I will only be selling each chapter deck with rules and the game mechanic every other month during the course of the novel set. So you , the customer will not be bombarded with these many cards at one time. Each chapter deck will contain the max set of cards from 80 to 102 cards. The minimal chapter deck is 9 cards with rules and half a world map for that chapter deck that is in the story line. Then when all is said and done, the players can customize their own decks from out of the 24+ chapter decks provided from the first novel series. That customized chapter deck can be a max of 80 monster cards from any of the chapter decks or a set of the TriiDorium World Monster sets.

There are three different world factions as well with their own units that have 14 different categories to use on the field during a multiplayer campaign. There will be rules and regulations for this set up to. Don't worry, the rules are simple and easy to follow and will have artwork for different styles you can choose from as examples before playing or a variation there of.

Stay tuned for more updates as we count down to the last chapter deck for the first novel series.

Voyage of the DoomSetter deck has been completed last night at 11:51p.m. I have considered to allow players to use this deck as a normal chapter deck other than just a monster story deck that you couldn't play. So now, players can use this deck with any of the other chapter decks through out the franchise of Dymino Monsters.

The Mimic artist w.s.t. character deck. I am having a bit of difficulty with this deck and I have been thinking of putting this character as a Collectors' Character deck. Seeing that this w.s.t (weapon skill technique) is so unique and or just so darn difficult to figure out how to get the player to use the cards to pull from the draw pile is right up there to pulling my teeth out. But alas, no worries. I will get it completed when I can come to reason with my self to come up with a unique way to have players use this character in the future. So for now, the Mimic Artist will go to the Collectors Deck Category. Players will still be able to play with this character on the field or other locations during the story line or in solo campaigns, co-op and multiplayer campaigns.

Now to work on the last chapter decks within the first novel.

Stormy.

New artwork added in the prototype artwork file on the site.
There are two more sections for this prototype waterfall location that I will not add to this site. I have added the section 2 to show what the next section looks like while playing with this game.

Enjoy

Today I completed Cyrum's Crypt Chapter deck. It contians two variable decks or outcomes as you play this deck solo, co-op or in multiplayer campaigns.

2 main chapter decks left to prototype and two old decks that need to be revised left.

One more month to go to get all of these completed. Which is my goal and no its not a New Year's Eve resolution. lol. Just a small goal to complete.

Stay tuned for more updates.
Stormy.

Thank you for helping out with the information Kris.

Back in 2012 when the theme came about for Dymino Monsters and along side with so many cards, I knew in my heart that this game will never see a KS format.

Reason (s)

1: There isn't really any award system for this game to be on a KS format.

2: Finances.

3: Artists. See number 2. There are many talented people / artists that I have seen and talked to and some have helped out with their time by rendering my facebook page of my game title. Thank you Dan Pueblo and his team who lives in the Philippines to help out another game designer from the other side of the world with that rendering.

4: This game has so many cards that I would need to hire at least 10 artists to divide the artwork for this project. But that is okay. Since being on a 12 year production design run, I knew this game was going to be huge. Huge as in creating the cards, mechanics, play testing, and for the fans. Seeing at 2004 perspective, I didn't know how huge the game would have as such a following as we see today.

Passion, creativity, sanity, long hours of labor. There was no real need to rush into getting this game out on the market even if I did have a budget. I am in no rush. With the last prototype chapter deck nearly complete and this evening I brought back in the blacksmith deck I am in a most humble emotional state of mind that with so long of a project, I will actually hate to see that its complete for the first novel franchise chapter decks.

In Spring time a friend of mine is allowing me to have a play test with his family and friends to showcase of Dymino Monsters as see how that goes. I can't wait for that.

5: Budgeting and timing,

6: Wooden Boxes and or card board box? I already know the answer to that.

7: Just because the chapter deck will be complete soon. Real soon, I still need to draw out the play mats by hand. Plus this will give me more time to go over the finer details during game play. Missions, tasks, story line, clues, puzzles. All of these items will also be included into each novel set I put out. Again, let me say that, if this game does come out in the future, I will let you all know. I believe in my games. My games talk for themselves. Updating is the key to success.

There is more to all of this but I won't bore everyone, but that all consists of finances and at the moment, I don't have it.
Why did I create this game so long ago, 12 years ago, if I didn't have the funds. My answer to that is. I wanted to see something new. I love large projects. I wanted to see how much passion I had for this game. I wanted to see how long it would take me to create this game world. I want to see the players reactions during game play. The strategy, the tactics, the laughs and the holy cow hits and near misses, the interaction of how the game reacts to the players and the characters. I have achieved that and alot more in this game.

Could it work? Yes. The game mechanic is so simple. Will I showcase that mechanic? Not yet. With so many ideas, concepts, ideas, drawings, story line, play testing involved and talking to my play testers and other game designers from around the world and talking to those game designers new to game design, ametaurs or even experts in the board and card game designs and even in video game designs. That is the joy and excitement I have encountered. That is why this game has made me kept going.

Just like everyone else here. You wanna see how everyone will react to your game. The joy, the pitfalls, the achievements during the game ideas to a full working game on store shelves.

Here is the people of who I have helped out during the last three years in their game designs.

1: Kris Kycia
2: Chenier La Seille
3: Todd Mika
4: David P.
5: Bill Barber
6: Grant Johnson
7: Some to most members here on bgdf.
and many more.

I have designed 15 other smaller games. I create my own because I can't afford to buy main brand games. That is the fun, passion to create games.

Scratches head. Um. Yeah sort of got of track there. eh.

Stormy.

Last night I finished all of the last three decks for the first novel franchise decks.

Now to work on more prototype play mats, revising the rules for all of the different variations for the different styles in game play.

Work on campaign mission cards and tasks and other details for the players during game play and other formats.

Thank you everyone for the support, great feedback and concerns for my game Dymino Monsters.

Now to continue on writing the manuscripts for our 4th wall comedy pun web series. Which by the way, we are at manuscript episode 10 for the first season series.

Tonight I will set up a game picture of what has been accomplished through out the years on this project for everyone to see.

Stormy

Since the last update on 12/12/2016, I have worked on several new prototype playmats. More on are still being worked on once I get more poster boards and start to lay out the designs for new locations.

In Other news:

Our Beyond the Horizon 4th Wall Comedy Pun Web series manuscript is now on Episode 11. On Dec. 31, 2016 I started working on the script that Saturday at 11:43 a.m. for 45 minutes at the laundry amt and then when my crew came over, we continued working on the script at 8:43 p.m. and finished the script at 6:24 a.m. on Jan. 1 , 2017. This manuscript consists of 39 pages at 16 font. If it was at 11 font, the script would of been at 31 pages. I decided at the beginning to write the script at 16 font so we can see the text and easier to read, but all in all, the script is going quite well.

My crew and I will be at Animarathon BGSU on March 25, 2017 to showcase our Beyond the Horizon characters portrayed in our show. Not only that, I will be bringing a friend of mine who was an extra in several movies and two t.v. shows. He will be also bring a studio crew friend of his to do a live younow feed at Animarathon as well. Tons of stuff is being planned on that day. So we hope to hear or see some of you or watch our live feed. To much to explain hear but we are going to have a blast.

Stay tuned for more updates.

Stormy.

Almost did a double post. Ha.

Anyways , the news is that I created 4 more monster encounters for the Wicker Tangle Chronicles set. Its also getting close to Animarathon in March. Can't wait for that. Big plans with live video and a live panel and a cosplay skit for my team to showcase our original characters from our sci-fi 4th wall comedy pun webseries.
