You might be wondering what happened here and I'm pretty sure it is a combination of arrow V and lightning.

Personalised Card Art

Doing some community research. How would you feel about a deck builder video game where you get to design the card art yourself? Would you find this fun?

Does Ascension 10yr anniversary work with older expansions?

Hi. I'm looking to get into Ascension but I don't know if the 10th edition will work with expansions or what. Would it be better off with third edition? Just need a little guidance. Thanks friends.

Looking for Theory Crafter / Card Designer (or QA)

I have built a procedurally generated Slay the Spire inspired game. Now that I have a playable game engine, I'm trying to build classes and cards but I am struggling (programming the game is my specialty, apparently designing cards is not). If anyone is talented at theory crafting or coming up with cards / game mechanics, I would love to have you join the team. Here is a link to the current prototype: https://elthran.itch.io/edge-of-ascension

Loot Box! My late stage prototype.

Greetings!

My name is Nathan, and this is Loot Box! Loot Box is a competitively focused deck builder with area control elements and TCG styled card effects. In Loot Box! you manage your guild's arsenal, equipping your members to command a land riddled with dungeons.

Loot Box! is inspired by titles like Ascension, Hearthstone, Slay the Spire, and Marvel Snap. I've been working on this project for the last year, and I will be bringing the prototype to PAX unplugged in December.

I have a few online prototypes available as well, so, if you're interested to know more or try it out, I'd love your feedback. Feel free to message me or email me at tinydungeonsgaming@gmail.com

I will gladly send you a playable demo (windows only currently) and the database of all of our current mechanics and cards.

Looking for a Game?!

Hello all!

I am looking for a deck building game (either virtual or physical) with any or all of these aspects:

  • Quick turns like “Here to Slay”.
  • A leader character and acquired characters to build a party like “Here to Slay”.
  • Involves dice rolling to resolve effects (ideally a d20).
  • A miniature/figure that moves across the board to explore/shop and then initiate the deck building battles.
  • Can be 2 or more players.

I’m excited to hear any recommendations!

The Mnemograph is a strategy game that combines deck-building, card-based combat, deduction, and management, all set in a steampunk world of press and crime. What do you think?

Hi everyone! I'm thrilled to share a game that I'm currently developing!

Here's the link to the Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2924080/The_Mnemograph/

Game Context

A new evening newspaper is hitting the streets, and it's yours. But The Mnemograph Chronicle isn't just another one of the dozens of flimsy 'rags' that people devour every day. This is a paper written by a machine, the Mnemograph. For a genius inventor, what could be easier than creating a system capable of extracting information from the carefully harvested brains of unclaimed bodies at the municipal morgue? All that remained was to build an automated printing factory, so the power of steam could spread across the city, delivering news that chronicles its own downfall. The rise of the press attracts entrepreneurs of varying scruples every day, so... why not you? Your printing factory will need to be upgraded to achieve production speeds that can compete with the best-established publishers and reduce costs; regular repairs will also be necessary. The Mnemograph itself will need to be calibrated before each production, and its accuracy can be improved. You'll also need to manage stocks of paper, ink, copper, and coal. But most importantly, you'll need to carve out a place for yourself in a hostile world where anything goes. You'll have to get your hands dirty with the city's underworld, exploit its criminal talents, get involved in its schemes, pay for its services, and wade through the muck of corruption under the cover of night.

Features

  • Build a Unique Deck by Purchasing Services from the Underworld

At night, you'll need to protect yourself from rival newspaper moguls who will try to sabotage you as you rise to the top. But if you want to own the biggest paper in the city, you'll also have to go on the offensive, enlisting the services of the underworld.

As you progress, you'll encounter new characters. Each one offers different services tailored to a specific style of play. For instance, the crime boss provides basic services like thugs (orange cards), while the politician offers protection services (blue cards).

You get to decide who you want to meet, allowing you to build a unique deck with a personalized play style.

  • Calibrate the Mnemograph Before Each Production

To make money, you need to sell newspapers. And to do that, you must calibrate the Mnemograph before each production run. After the brains are analyzed, you'll need to choose the main headline for the paper based on the engraving the Mnemograph has produced. If you make a mistake, you’ll end up publishing a newspaper with incorrect main information!

  • Manage Your Supplies, Upgrade Your Printing Factory, and Make Repairs

Carefully manage your supplies by buying and selling goods based on current prices to maximize profits. Upgrade your printing factory to reduce resource consumption and cautiously increase production speeds. Maintain your machines regularly to minimize the risk of breakdowns.

Plans for Release

Feel free to share your feedback!

Have a nice day!

Andy

Just announced unique time-stop deckbuilder Tower of Jank. Demo available.

https://i.redd.it/7r2x8t13tlod1.gif

Tower of Jank is a unique mix of deckbuilding and top-down action where you will have to break the game to beat it as it is quite unpredictable.

Wishlist - https://store.steampowered.com/app/3225940/Tower_of_Jank?utm_source=deckbuildingroguelike
Try an early demo online: https://dragisas.itch.io/tower-of-jank

Deckbuilding Podcast

Hey deckbuilding community. I've recently set up a podcast called Twenty Minute Tabletop which is all about board gaming. We are a relatively new podcast so are looking to continue to grow, but now have had about 5000 downloads.

This week, I've spent a lot of time editing and working on our podcast on Deckbuilding gamesl so would be really pleased if one or two of you took the time to have a listen. It's all about what I think we all love about the mechanic and we cover a wide range of games like:

  • Aeons End
  • Star Realms
  • Magic the gathering
  • Undaunted Normandy
  • Renegade and obviously
  • Dominion

Anyways, this is just a hobby for me so I get nothing from sharing this apart from the fact that a few hours editing might get the odd listen! I hope you enjoy it and please let me know if you do. If you don't enjoy it, well, you can keep that to yourself 😂 Please let me know what you think in the comments!

Links below for those of you kind enough to give us a listen:

Cernunos' Rapid Scaling deck will put you in the perfect position to take on anything that comes your way in These Doomed Isles. 📈 Focus on resource gathering as you try and get as many cards unlocked from the research library as possible. 🎴
