Instructions are so Tedious, who needs them.

This week was the first stage of the creation of my game. I dedicated this entire week to creating the rules for my game.I am really enjoying this project so far as I have a large background knowledge in board games and I am now actually being able to use it for something useful. 

  

 I wrote 1500 words of instructions to outline how to play. I took many ideas and some game mechanics from other games which I mashed into mine.I feel like I have created good core game mechanics and I am hoping to test it out next week. I have also looked into some of the piece and parts I will need to create an ecstatically pleasing board game and to be honest I am slightly worried. I will have to leave a large chunk of time to actually buy or create pieces for my board game. As buying pieces online would be optimal but I just don’t have the time. Overall this week was a step in the right direction and now since I have my instructions “done” I can get away from the tedious construction of them and actually starting the fun and more interesting revision.
