New Thing Number Seventeen

I created a game.

And I'm not saying I pulled out some Uno cards and invented some new rules. I created a game. An entire game.

I did base it on a popular idea, but it's popular enough that I don't really think it belongs to anyone. Hopefully.

The work-in-progress title: Pirate Curses.

I don't think I've tried something this elaborate before. I mean, 225 specialized cards (on a budget, of course) an entire set of rules, and little game twisters once in a while. Like, if I had enough money to mass-produce and buy all the rights I need, I could be a multi-millionaire. ...okay maybe a multi-hundredaire. But every penny of income is appreciated.

I feel quite the sense of accomplishment. And after the trial run tonight I'm pretty sure it'd be a smashing success at other social gatherings, provided the people at said gatherings are willing to make utter fools of themselves. (But really, why go to a party if the people there aren't willing to look a bit like fools? Those are my favorite people.)

Man, if I can make a game that people love, I can do anything.
