I managed to make a card with Magic The Gathering Card Maker, but I cannot upload images anymore, so I’m looking for another software to do it. If you have suggestions…
No problem. I’d be keen to see something well-done like that, official or not. Kinda scratches that “collect-them-all” urge that the Steam trading cards gives me for GD stuff
Id love to see the final product. I have been designing a deckbuilding game based on GD, but havent shared anything on it due to concerns id be violating some kind of laws. Its encouraging to know i dont have to worry about that, as it would not be for monetary gain! Ill have to share what ive got so far, now that im inspired to do so by this thread. Thanks for sharing!
That’s one thing that I love about Crate. They are fairly open and transparent in how they operate (and communicative too) and as long as you aren’t pirating the game or trying to make make money off of it they are more than happy for you to do whatever it is that you do.
Hope you share your game then whenever it’s ready.
Ill definitely do so. Shoot, ill probably share it before its ready and ask for the community’s input. If there was a Grim Dawn deckbuilding or CCG game on the market I know I would buy it- If we designed something great, out of love for the game and Crate, then donated it to them so they could do whatever they wanted with it- Imagine that!!
CCGs have been hot since the 90s. Tons of games design them, too. Currently theres Hearthstone, Elder Scrolls: Legends, and Gwent. Hell, warhammer 40k even has a CCG now.
CCGs are my other favorite game genre and now that so many have gone digital, it would be so bad ass to have one thats set in the world of GD. But im no computer programmer, i just like to design games as best as i can to pass time on public transportation. Sometimes i stumble upon some cool ideas. Id love it if the community could add to them, and if Crate could use any of it, thats even better.
Not expecting anything, of course. Just sharing one of my fantasies- a GD CCG!
Ya, as much as people joke about such games I wouldn’t be averse to a GD CCG. An older version of Switcher I was working on at one point did have a screenshot or “Story-telling” feature I’d built-in to it and the results are actually kinda “card-like”. I fully intend on expanding on this again one day. Unfortunately I don’t think I have the source from that old version anymore so I’d have to rebuild it from scratch.
I do have some screens of it left tho that I had posted in the Fashion Dawn thread.
I was actually working on a Grim Dawn tabletop RPG. I had my own setting called Jewel of the South, a city in a desert far to the south. I didn’t want to just copy existing lore but to also make my own. Then Forgotten Gods was announced…
Great to read, gentlemen!
Now, I’m still looking for artists to help me with my project, so if you know someone who might be interested, don’t hesitate to tell him/her and me.
