Ars'nal Card Game Funding

My name is William Roehm III, and I am currently looking to raise funding for the final wave of my card game Ars'nal.

Ars'nal is a 2-6 player "toilet humor" card game where you equip powerful Assistants and Equipment to... *HIT on your opponents. Ars'nal was created to be fun to play as you create hilarious combinations of cards while simultaneously being challenging with different strategies and play styles.

Physical Playtest Cards

In 2019, I sat down with a good friend at a Chinese Buffet restaurant and talked about funny game ideas with him. One of the games we came up with was called "Ass-ention," a play on words for ascension, where butts would fight their way to the afterlife. We sat there and laughed about different butt-themed heroes, including The Suck-U-Butt, Kracken, and even Harry Poodini. Unfortunately, the idea would lay dormant until 2021. In 2020-21, I got a job as a Project Manager creating many different games for an independent company's app called Jogoball. Jogoball was nominated for the 2021 National Parenting Product Awards. This spark of influence drove me back into creating my games, and Ars'nal was at the top. After many months of hard work and playtesting with a fantastic community, Ars'nal was balanced, fun, and, most importantly... addicting to play.

Evolution of the Assistant Card "Dump Truck Chan"

It has been just over a year of developing Ars'nal, and I am close to finishing the final product. Currently, right now we have all of the cards of the base game completed. Listed below is what we still need to spend on the project:

Right now, any funding will help with finishing the development of Ars'nal! I am hoping that Ars'nal will be my big push into the board game market and help catapult me into future game development. As a thank you to anyone who helps with this gofundme, I have set up some awards for anyone who helps support Ars'nal before the kickstarter!

Rewards:

$10+ - You will receive a special “GoFundMe Supporter” role on the Ars’nal Discord! https://discord.gg/DN9q2sXd7e

$50+ - All the above rewards and you will receive one copy of the base game of Ars'nal early! I plan on sending out review copies of the game before the Kickstarter goes live, and one of those copies will be yours! (United States Only!)

$100+ - All the above rewards and you will get your name credited in the rulebook.

$250+ - All the above rewards and you will get to make your own Assistant card! I will sit down with you and come up with a fun and balanced card that will be included as a Kickstarter Exclusive card! It can be yourself or even your own creation. (Please contact me before to get approval of idea. No NSFW/Racist/Sexist concepts.)

Anonymous donations will not be able to receive any rewards, but I am still thankful for them.
