About Tokaido Nakama
Inspiration
"This project was created for Holberton's capstone project to demonstrate what we have learned over the last year. My initial plan was to do a browser based version of a board game, but between Tabletopia and Board Game Arena, they've all been done. I wanted to make something new and useful. So I decided on a companion app for Tokaido. It had a very basic rules set and wonderful asthetic, and had a lot of extra features we can expand upon as we learn more and have more time to work on it. I enlisted the help of classmates Dylan Carey and Corbin Enterline, knowing they both were hobby gamers, Corbin was interested in front end and GUI coding for games, and Dylan was more capable with Python which was the language we decided to use." - Robert Rowe, Designer
