Hey folks,
I was talking with a friend the other day. We were discussing making a card game. The BIGGEST thing is the artwork. I said if you had a large database of images, it could be fairly easy to do.
I was thinking about that, and as I started my Lexicon of Forum Hoard files, it hit me... WE have a HUGE database of figures right here.
OK! (Here's the pitch...)
I was thinking that using a card game engine I came up with a few years ago, I could make a GREAT game.
Here's where you come in...
ANYONE interested in this product (that will be a FREE download for EVERYONE here) reply here or send me a PM.
Think of this as a "KICKSTARTER!" I need authorization from the artists (if a re-color/re-mod, I would need permission from BOTH parties) to use their images on the cards.
It would be a simple, yet fun game, and completely FREE!!
I figured that since the images are all available for free downloads, then I don't see where it would be a issue for anyone.
Regardless, I would not consider using ANY images without permission.
Also, since this is a Forum project (meaning it is for the Forum Members, by the Forum Members) all cards will show the artists names (as they are on the figures themselves) to give the artist all the recognition they deserve.
I was also thinking of adding the Hoard number to the card, showing where it can be found.
Right now there are about 8 cards I can use (because that is about what I have submitted).
Here is what I would like to see:
"Kil, you can use my --- figures from Hoard --"
There are SO many different types of figures available! This could be a great set, and very diverse.
I have some down-time obviously, so I need to do something to occupy this time... in between projects, and this is the best way I know to keep sharpening my skills.
NOW, IF this somehow violates any copyright that Nik and the crew have, then I will forget this (and make my own personal version that will never be seen here).
Ok. Feel free to offer your figures to the chopping block!
I was also trying to think of a clever name for the game... like:
[glow=red,2,300]THE HOARDS[/glow]
Ok, it needs work...
Thanks for your attention!
David
(BTW, did I mention I was planning on offering this as a free download?)
