⭐ Version 1.0 Prototype — Description

Draw & Brawl
A light-hearted turn-based board game prototype with RPG elements.
This is an early build focused on core mechanics, movement, classes, and exploration.

🎲 What’s Included in This Prototype

• 4 playable classes: Warrior, Pathfinder, Healer and Sorcerer.
  Choose your hero and select how many AI opponents will join the match.
  (Opponents are always different classes — no mirror matches.)

• Fully functional grid-based board system (built with ds_grid):
  All players can roll dice, move across the board, and interact with tiles.

• Board tiles with effects:
  Most tiles grant bonuses, resources, or small buffs.
  A few tiles are intentionally empty.

• Player menu:
  Check your stats, view inventory, read abilities, and inspect learned magic.

• Auto-Play Mode:
  Enable auto-play to let all players move continuously without manual input (just press button AUTO).

• Status system:
  Temporary buffs (e.g., Speed Boost) work correctly and affect gameplay.

• Turn indicator:
  The UI clearly shows whose turn it is before each move.

• Multiple battle arena layouts:
  The game switches between WORLD and BATTLE modes using layered room rendering.

• Safe assets:
  All visuals are AI-generated.
  And all sounds are from https://www.zapsplat.com

⚠️ Currently Not Implemented

This is an early prototype. Some systems are still missing:

• Full combat mechanics (no battles yet).

• Equipment system (items are defined, but cannot be equipped).

• Items do not drop yet.

• “Surprise” cards are not available.

• Loot, reward mechanics, enemy scaling — all planned for future updates.

🌟 Why Try This Prototype?

• It’s already playable — you can explore the board, collect bonuses, and test class interactions (It's not much for now, but it's cool.).

• You get an early look at how the board flow and character progression feel.

• Your feedback will directly shape how combat, balance, items, and classes evolve (check the survey below).
