Digital Board Game 00

I've long wanted to create a game. Recently I've had some time on my hands and decided to revisit a board game project I've been working on with a dear friend - We tried to create a game with rules based on how the polish Sejm works.

I have a hunch the digitalization of the design can really improve the quality of life of playing the game, so I will be trying to convert it into a game you can play on your phone or computer.

I would like to explore how the gameplay may be enchanced using video game practices - Allowing each player to manipulate what they're looking at is a feature I think our game will greatly benefit from.

The game centers around controlling seats in a parliament chamber consisting of 460 different MPs and swaying the votes, it has been a big challenge on how to best deal with such abundance of pieces.

We'll see how it goes along the way

For the architecture, I would like to stick to what I know for the backend: An authoritative Go server that will verify commands sent by clients, which will be just renderers of the data snapshots from the server and send inputs.

I will be using Godot and GDScript for the 3D clients.
