having some indication, to if the cards dealing damage(single or aoe), buffing, defending, healing, cleansing, what status they apply, etc, know there are a lot of effects but you can generalize if needed and the scrolls look like they can fit 3 icons comfortably.
I guess I was just overthinking it by trying to come up with a system that automatically determines the correct icons to use but I suppose just manually assigning them would work. I will try to look for some fitting icons and might implement this if I can find some.
The takeback was just a me problem since I'm one of those people that like to play things out asap, was a bit bummed when cards and dice are gone, but it was okay after a few times.
Several people have requested this so I think it definitely makes sense.
See you what you mean with activation when assigned, what effects do you have in mind?
Basically 3 types of on play effects:
- A bonus effect such as discard/draw a card or reroll all your unused dice.
- Split effects where a part of it's effect happens right away and the rest during your turn if you also have the necessary ap.
- The entire effect happens upfront and then you'd eventually have to pay the cost to free up your character's card slot.
What are you talking about, yeah sure the card images are black and white but not even that bad, they got colors and boarders, anything better than letters.
Since you have 3 heroes why not show the heroes like this.
As I've mentioned before, visual design isn't one of my strengths and despite trying out a couple of things, everything just ended up looking weird and badly composed to me, which is why I ditched those and went with something super simple in the end.
you got some really ambitious ideas, so are you really done with this game? You can really play around with the dice mechanics, like cards that require certain numbers, omg the possibilities.
I definitely do think that the game has a ton of potential, but at the same time it's kinda niche and looking for the right people to work with seems like such a pain or maybe it's because I feel a bit burnt out after those 2 weeks of heavy crunch lol.
Not a clue, tried to recreate it too cause thought it was opening the menu before a battle and it was not, were you playing on the web? Suspect it's chrome memory overloading or something, kept the game opened for long periods but it's fine, doesn't happen for other games, though they are not as long, likely a problem on my end, if no other people are experiencing this.
All my tests have been on the browser version using chrome. I will try to do some minor optimizations and hopefully that'll fix the problem for you if it's memory related.
