Ever wondered why some fantasy worlds just don’t add up? On this episode of Deep Space and Dragons, Richard and Karl tackle the quirkiest inconsistencies that plague fantasy series using video game logic. Richard's passion for well-defined systems shines as he critiques the often flawed game mechanics found in these stories.
Next, we sink our teeth into the rich, character-driven narrative of "Baby Prisoner of the North Castle." This manga, featuring a half-blood princess who becomes a golem master, offers a breath of fresh air compared to action-centric series. We emphasize the essence of good writing and character development, drawing examples from beloved shows like Spice and Wolf. Our conversation also spans the creative freedom offered by self-publishing platforms like Tapas and our desire for more originality in Shonen Jump’s current lineup.
Finally, we break down the complexities of designing a strategic card game rooted in rock-paper-scissors mechanics. From discussing the “double down token” to considering user-friendly game mechanics, we leave no stone unturned. Our insights compare the nuances of strategic depth found in games like Texas Hold'em with our unique card game concept. Wrapping up, we preview our nostalgic yet innovative demo board setup, combining elements from classics like Digimon World and Dokapon Kingdom. Join us for a rollercoaster of humor, insights, and game design geekery!
