Day 4

Today we messed around and learned about Photoshop. We used it to design our game board. We decided to make a transparent grid, with creepy wooden boards tiled in the background. First we learned how to change the size and look of the wood (for example, we experimented with different filters and colors). Then, we rotated the image of the wood, and editted it to fit the board. By doing all of this we were able to get the hang of the Photoshop program. Afterwards, we found a better image for the wood, and brainstormed other board design ideas, such as a bloody red grid, footprints, etc.

We are going to meet on Sunday to do our chapter assignment, and to:
establish a concrete back story and purpose/objective of the game,
figure out which game pieces we'll need (die, pawns, cards),
the cover art for the box,
rules with elements of luck and strategy. So far, most of the game is luck-based but we will change that.
