Inspiration
In a conversation about game mechanics with Mike, he shared with me his secrets to making the game actually fun. It involved bidding on squares. That conversation and idea sparked a lot of exploration and inspired some fun ideas.
What it does
In Celebrity Grid Bid, you are tasked with casting the hottest celebrities in a new movie. Get bonus combos for lining three in a row. You have to be careful though cause there's tough competition. Plan your bids wisely and produce the best movie the world has seen.
How we built it
It's my first time really using Lens Studio for games. I use that, some Aseprite and lots of doodles in the sketchbook.
Challenges we ran into
Oh, lol. Some of the turn based component features didn't behave as expected. I found this late in the day while testing. I think some of the learning hurdles took longer than expected.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
This game concept is a ton of fun and there's a lot that can be done with it. I'm looking forward to polishing this up. I also love drawing celebrities.
I laughed a lot making this game.
What we learned
A ton. Mainly there isn't as much time as I would like.
What's next for Celebrity Grid Bid
I think get through the bugs and republish with a more polished experience.
