Ride the Lightning for example does a measly 3 damage to a unit. However with the Signature keyword, if you play this card while you control a unit named Murray McBrain, you follow it's Signature ability instead.

The player is rewarded for using skills and songs that belong to the right character.

One of the biggest features of the Godgrave card game is it's focus on storytelling, with each deck and batch of cards serving to tell the story of the current arc.

So we wanted to design a mechanic that rewards the player for building lore accurate decks.

What movie do you consider “perfect”?

The mobile version is even worse. Sometimes pages load infinitely, or sometimes your android's bottom menu buttons can overlay Discord's UI

What if they shot this with real footage, but used special effects to make it APPEAR as if it was AI generated so they could still do commentary on it without ever actually using AI?

What, still no Scat Gamble?

That's a shame. I would have voted for Homelander (unless it's gotta be a Marvel villain)

BTW, this isn't me knocking on Strike Engine or anything. This is clearly a skill issue on my part, and I WANT to get better

It feels so demoralizing when you learn that you gotta start nearly from scratch on your project after just one playtest.

So now I'm struggling to rebalance all the cards I made using what little knowledge I have of Strike Engine

No scalping required. Every card will be available from the start

Team Godgrave @godgrave.bsky.social · 5d

There's also indie card games to consider, like the one we're designing.

Seven of the Twelve games on this list are indie games. That says a lot about the current video game industry

Oh sweet, Shoutmon is in the game

Team Godgrave @godgrave.bsky.social · 6d

Definitely interested. I sent you a DM >:)

Team Godgrave @godgrave.bsky.social · 7d

And yes, I said CG instead of TCG. There's no trading involved because every card is available from the start

Team Godgrave @godgrave.bsky.social · 7d

I'm gonna try my best to write up a description for each of the six aspects (colors) that are used for Godgrave: The Metal Age CG

Team Godgrave @godgrave.bsky.social · 7d

These extra cards will be tied into the current storyline or setting, and let people make their own decks.

We also plan on making a third deck at some point to further flesh out the Iron Eagles arc

Team Godgrave @godgrave.bsky.social · 7d

Okay, so here's the plan

Right now I'm still in the middle of developing the second deck (the Wild Boys one), and plan to do playtesting by next week.

When both decks are done in the next few months (depending on funds), We'll release both decks, and over time release extra cards for fun.
