Boardgame Player And Creation Kit
Im working on a byond "game" called Bpack, (Boardgame player and creation kit) and it will allow you to design your own board game, with complete control of everything, dice, board, cards, players, rules, tokens, and much more. It will allow you to make race to the finish type games, monopoly style games(ring around), fighting styles, and whatever else your mind can think of. After your done setting up everything, you can save it and play your new game with other players. So if you've ever wanted to make a board,card or dice game, soon you will be able to!
The game will also come with a few examples, and I plan on making an assortment of games for it. One that I have planned so far is Megaopoly, which is an extreme version of monopoly, which allows your economical empire to reach insane heights, to the point where each side is throwing billion dollar bills around. Basicly, many more paths to take, many more places to buy, more special types, from banks which would bring in extra cash whenever you pass go, to special buildings that take money from your enemy when you(the owner of it) land on them.
Right now, I am working on the basics of the system, like the dice system(numerical dice, or customizible symbol dice), card system(for games with "chance" spots or games where you use cards for things like attacking), Token system(which could be used as currency or things like life bars), and other basic functions. If you want to keep up with this project, I will be posting here.
So start thinking up those games, because you'll have a chance to make them happen.

Sounds like a lot of work. For some reason I doubt that it will ever be completed. Just another lost idea in a pool of unfinished projects.

Your talking to someone that has all the time in the world and is bored out of his mind, and crazy enough to code for 18 hours straight. Of course, you do have a point. But a very limited version would not be very hard, and from there I can add the customizibility. I also have a good knowledge of saving maps and other data and loading it. I can use simple inventory like techniques for cards and tokens. Basicly it will grow from: make a path to the finish with some special spaces and junk, to: make any kind of board,card,or dice game you want.
