Hi All
I was thinking about which games I might like to develop over the summer and thought I'd share an Academic question: Any thoughts how we could implement legacy style games on here?
Obviously no license at present, but more interested in how legacy games might make an appearance online.
1. Would being online spoil the sales of the games as all the surprises are known, or would it give people a chance to play through the campaigns again afterwards?
2. I can't think of a way of starting part-way into a campaign (e.g. Say June in pandemic legacy) that makes sense, so a recorded playing of the game would have to encompass the complete campaign.
3. I guess we would essentially have to either modify the framework to allow campaigns (collections of games with passable parameters), or set the 'game' up like we would a game with seasons that simply loop round.
Anyhow, I would welcome people's (particularly developer) views on this, but equally interested if people (players) would play these should they come online.
