Catchable Floaty Thing
So! I made a board game out of my town, based primarily on the Mario Party series (sorry amiibo fest fans, but I avoided it as much as possible lol)
The game uses the colorful wheels to determine movement instead of dice, coins are replaced by bells and stars by star fragments, and of course the minigames have to be improvised to be played in Animal crossing, but the basic premise is otherwise the same. I've got a good list of 18 minigames so far, and I'm keen on adding more, so let me know if you have any suggestions!
Beyond that, I'm looking to get a party together and playtest it! Anyone interested?
