IntroductionHi there,
I'm a one band game developer designing and building games on very low budgets. This makes every project challenging, many hours of work but also a lot of fun.
I really enjoyed making this game. I wanted to make a card game but I wanted it to be somewhat different from the other card games out there.
So I decided to make a politically themed game based upon the various groups that have the most influence in modern society. I didn't just want political parties but also influential groups of people such as celebrities and ecologists to be included.
The Dis-United States Of America is the result. I chose the USA simply because it is the most varied society on the planet. And from a practical point of view it was the easiest country to find graphical and audio assets for.
So the game is composed of 9 influential factions. You choose which faction to play and compete against 4 other factions that have been randomly selected. Each faction has it's own card deck.
The factions play cards in two ways. Firstly, some cards are played against the hands of the other players. Secondly, other cards are played in each state of the USA to obtain resources in those states. On the last turn, the game is won by the faction that controls the most states.
Each state has a specific number of People, Land, Natural Resources, Industry and Money. These are based upon actual official statistics for each state.
Due to its political subject matter there are a few card references and images based upon crime, drugs and adult content but these are not explicit images or references.
Over time I may tweak the game to include more cards and more factions.
I also intend to re-use the code base to apply it to other themes such as a medieval/fantasy theme, WW2 theme and sci-fi theme.
Thanks for reading,
Steve

[ 2019-11-30 03:14:41 CET ] [ Original post ] Where is America heading?The Dis-United States Of America is a single player card game where you play 1 of 9 Factions to control the future direction of the USA. Each Faction has it's own Card Deck which you either play against your opponent's hand or use to gather resources from each US State. Each Card has a specific action when played such as controlling a resource or blocking another Faction in a state. By the end of the game, the Faction controlling the most US States wins the game.
The Factions include:
- Celebrities - they gather their adoring fans.
- Corporations - they turn everything into money.
- Criminal - they steal from other Factions.
- Ecologists - they want everyone to Go Green!
- Government - they try to impose control on other Factions.
- Liberals - they want everyone to seek peace and love in the world.
- Nationalionalists - they believe in the Star Spangled Banner and Uncle Sam
- Religious - they want the country to live bythe word of God.
- Socialists - they want the workers to own the means of production.
Card Actions:
- Own Resource
- Convert Resource - converts a State resource to another e.g. money to people.
- Add Resource - adds a State resource e.g. add people to Virginia.
- Delete Resource - deletes a State resource e.g. delete 1 industry in California.
- Block Faction - block a faction in a State e.g. block the Criminal Faction in Florida.
- Unblock Faction - unblock your Faction in a State e.g. unblock Corporations iowa.
- Block Resource - block a State resource so no card can be played using that resource e.g. block Land in Alaska.
- Unblock resource - unblock a State resource e.g. unblock Natural resources in Texas.
- Steal Resource - steal a resource from another Faction e.g. the Criminal Faction steal 1 Corporations resource.
- Fill Hand - play a card to fill the hand of another Faction e.g. fill the hand of the Religious Faction to the maximum of 7 cards.
- Remove Card - remove a card from the hand of another Faction e.g. remove a card from the hand of the Socialists Faction.
- Block Deal - blocks a Faction from dealing cards e.g. block the Liberals Faction from dealing another card.
Each State has it's own resource list:
- People - the number of people who live in the State.
- Land - the land area of the State.
- Natural Resources - the value of oil, minerals and agriculture in the State.
- Industry - based on the economic GDP of the State.
- Money - based on the annual State budget.
