Star Path was another entry for Krassenstein’s Krass-N-G jam, though a project I really liked and spent some time trying to expand after the jam had concluded. The concept was you are on the run from the Galactic Force, but do not have warp fuel in order to jump away to safety. You explore planets, buy and trade goods, build facilities to gain resources, improve relationships with various factions – all whilst keeping ahead of the ever-encroaching Galactic Authorities.
One of the challenges I imposed on myself was trying to make sure this card-based game could potentially be played as a physical card game as well as a digital card game.
It was also the first time I got to work with my (now) wife, who took part in the project by creating art assets for Star Path.
