BARDS - Card Battler
The design of this game has been in my head for a long time, since I started reading Your Turn! The guide to great tabletop game design from Scott Rogers (great book btw!)
I tested playing it at home when the idea first popped, but it wasn't fun so I forgot about it. Then a few days ago I played another card battler on itch (AI made) and remember about my design, and thought I could use AI to simulate a bot and help me improve it. So I came up with this version, what you'll playi is the tool I've made to help me balance the game and change the rules, while testing it out against a bot. I've also put a simple multiplayer layer so you can invite your friends to play.
For the design, it's a bit balanced, there's still a bunch of luck involved that I want to mitigate by adding some mechanics with jokers, but I'll wait to see players reactions before deciding if that makes sense or not.
And for the art, I'm thinking about changing the cards to be something more artistic, as there are a bunch of nice and free assets on itch, but I'll wait for feedback first.
Let me know what you think!
