Looking to create a successful and memorable game? Focus on creating a unique game mechanic that sets your game apart from others in the genre. Whether it's a new take on a classic game mechanic or something entirely new and innovative, your game mechanic should be the driving force behind your game design. A unique game mechanic can help your game catch the attention of potential players.

Remember, this is a tip not a rule!

Finally digging into Dead Cells as the Castlevania dlc release date inches closer! The curse mechanic (that appeared in 2 different ways for me so far) seems like a good way to get the player to risk it all if they so choose.

How do Games remind us that we are Weak and Feeble? http://wp.me/p4oKJI-ak

"It doesn’t matter how many times you have levelled up or how many weapons you have strapped across your chest; the game is in charge and won’t hesitate to prove it."

What mechanisms does #Paranoia use to effectively create its environment. I find it is a likely candidate for #horror #ttgamedesign #boardgamedesign #gamedesign #ttrpg mechanics that bring out some of elements I'm talking about about in theme and #gamemechanics.

@BaseSixJon much so. Also, I will buy games, or read manuals, for games that explore similar #gamemechanics as the one I am working on.

Climb the mountain. An interesting game from the game logic class in Tallinn University. #gamedesign #gamemechanics

Am currently hacking on Boom Tower; an infinite tower jumping game. I've got some basic physics and infinite levels wired up.

I'm thinking of removing the momentum jumping, and instead implementing a Wall Jumping mechanic that requires specific timing to trigger an explosion of force from your feet (hence the "Boom"); same net effect (frantic level jumping), but with a bit of timing skill required.

What do you think?

When the game said I could trade 22 fish for a plane this is what came to my mind.

Animating (cheap) fire was easier than I expected, I used Krita with the exception of the export because of technical reasons so I'm still not animating things "properly" but I like the end result so far

Right now I can't stop thinking about the video game #Pathologic2. It's about being a doctor returning to home in a Russian Steppe town when a plague breaks out. The story is amazing, but I like to geek out about the #GameMechanics.

Your stamina and thirst are tracked by one bar. As you run your stamina goes down and refills when you're not running. As your thirst increases the bar gets smaller, reducing your total stamina, until you drink.

#Miniatures and #maps are great for some #games but roleplaying is best when it's #TheaterOfTheMind.

Also helpful, though a challenge to GM, is the Player Isolation Principle, whereby the players are not exposed to the #GameMechanics directly. The numerical values have #descriptive equivalents that allow translation. A #strength
#attribute #modifier of +2 becomes "very strong", a 30% reduction in #HitPoints becomes a "moderate injury", etc...

I love colorful #dice as much as anyone, and I usually try to find interesting #GameMechanics to utilize them. But I do enjoy #AmberDiceless role-playing , by #Wujcik , based on #Zelazny and the #ChroniclesOfAmber , and am considering a #Foundry game once a month or so.

Lastly for tonight, I present a character with a passive ability; Switch Boy.

With Switch Boy in your party, his ability functions as follows:
If you activate a switch that is tied to a timer, said timer will be delayed for a few extra seconds as needed, giving you more time to work with.

MARIO ODYSSEY has the same possession mechanic as the old game MESSIAH.
...
PLAYS completely differently, of course, but...
