Day 9 - December 9

This was a day of victory and completion. The group came together and developed a final product. This involved editing and printing the game box, as well as formatting the rules. Ralph formatted the rules in the style of a CD booklet. This allowed for it to match the style of the overall game, as well as the style of the box. At the end of the day, the group sat around and playtested the night away. In the end, this project brought us all closer together. It allowed us to work collaboratively and learn from one another. This was, a day of victory.

Day 8 - December 7

This day was dedicated to the actual manifestation of the gameboard. We went to Staples and about foamboard, this was to be used as the back of the board. When we arrived back to our dorms, we cut the foamboard into three sections. Then we divided up the gameboard into three sections as wel. An application of glue as used to adhere the paper to the board. The board making process lasted a total of 2 hours.

Day 7 - December 6

This day was used for creation of the gamecards. The whole day consisted of cardmarking, this meant we created a card template for each type of gamecard. Each template was specific to the card designation. The picture which was inserted into the card, has a direct relation to the card's meaning. At the end of the day, we printed each card out and playtested the game.
