Stealing food treasure is the easy part. Grabbing the biggest chunk when dividing the booty is tough—but also crucial to your success as a true pearate.
Split the Foody
Credits
For a while now, the popular author Brandon Sanderson has had a running joke about food heists. One day, I wrote down that it would be a cool title for a game about pirates ignoring treasure but stealing food.
About half a year later, I picked up that idea and actually turned it into a game. So I guess my first credits must go to Brando, though the eventual game barely has anything to do with the original spark.
Besides that, the fonts used are Primitive (headings) and Rosarivo (body text). (I initially used a different pirate-like-font that’s quite common, but ditched it because it looked too clean and similar to the body font.) Parts of the illustrations were generated with AI. Everything else is entirely mine.
Background
I usually pick my next idea based on what is “easiest or simplest to make”. This idea seemed really simple … but I had to do a lot of testing and prototyping to actually make it work, while keeping the rules light. A bit of a misfire from me, but in the end I’m glad I stuck it out and made this game, because it’s quite different from anything else I made before.
Support
You can hire me! Maybe you need a special board game or video game for a birthday or educational purpose? I'm also open to inquiries about physically publishing my games. I am a registered freelance artist from the Netherlands and you can contact me professionally through my portfolio.
If unsure, visit my Online Store. It contains everything I ever made. Though it focuses on playful education and activities for children/family, first and foremost.
Another great way to support me is to simply let me know what you think! Mail me at harmonize@pandaqi.com with any feedback.
Alternatives would be to buy my paid work (a win-win situation!) or to donate through the most popular channels (see buttons below).
