Trello can work for your Stumble Guys modding community, but its scalability depends on your team size, workflow complexity, and how you structure your boards. Here’s a breakdown of its pros, cons, and alternatives:
Pros of Using Trello for Game Modding Projects
✅ User-Friendly – Easy for non-technical contributors to track updates.
✅ Public Sharing – You can make boards public (view-only or editable) for community suggestions.
✅ Customizable Workflow – Use labels (e.g., "Bug Fixes," "New Skins," "Balance Changes") and lists (e.g., "Backlog," "In Progress," "Released").
✅ Integrations – Works with Slack, GitHub, Google Drive, and automation tools like Zapier.
✅ Free Plan Available – Good for small teams (up to 10 boards on the free tier).
Cons & Limitations
❌ Scalability Issues – If you have hundreds of suggestions/patches, Trello can get cluttered. ❌ No Built-in Version Control – Unlike GitHub/GitLab, Trello doesn’t track code changes.
❌ Limited Hierarchy – Hard to categorize deeply (e.g., separating "Gameplay Mods" vs. "Cosmetic Mods").
❌ No Advanced Permissions – Public boards are either editable or view-only (no granular roles).
How Others Use Trello for Modding Communities
Patch Notes Board – A public-facing list of updates with links to downloads.
Suggestion Voting – Let users submit ideas via Power-Ups like "Card Voting."
Roadmap Planning – Columns like "Planned," "In Development," "Beta Testing," "Live." You can also make your roadmap visual with Planyway and then share it with others.
Bug Reports – A public board where players report issues (but moderation is key).
