Listen… this is kind of cheaty but it may be necessary to beat these giant Viking guys. We take the small wins when we can get ‘em. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #indiedeveloper

This new knight puts up a fight! My favorite part is how he blocks with his sword. Any feedback on his ai is appreciated. Check him out in dungeon 2 now! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

ngl I spent a little bit too long on the art for this new mob... no regrets though, this guy is no joke! He also has a little surprise in store if you get him to low enough health... comment when you see it! 👀👀👀

Also what do we think this guy is? A knight? a viking? something else?

Players have requested more ways to heal in Card Reaper, so I made the 'healing doors' card. Every time you enter a door, you heal some hearts. This should help a little!

Been having a blast playing around with these new particle effects. They really add a lot of fun to playing cards. Showing off my three favorites here. What do you think?

The art for my cards are stored in minimal json binary format. To make creating art easier, I made this little web app to draw and then export it to json.

The webapp is available to play with. If you want to make some custom card reaper card art, email it to me and you may be featured on a card!

This new feature is (actually) a GAME CHANGER! You can now save your deck to the browser cache between runs. This means if you want quit and come back alter, you don't have to start building your deck from scratch again!

New animation just dropped! Let me know what yall think of this new "play card" animation. My favorite part is how the scene slows down as the player dramatically swings the card. It's giving gambit or yu gi oh. Let me know what animations to add next! 👿 👿

A few quality of life changes to card reaper today. We now have a new more militaristic hud, a cooler swing animation, and some play-card bug fixes. Check it out now!

Big things coming 💀💀

It's 2 am, and I just added an incredibly unhinged new card to the game...

The idea was to provide a card that switches out your scythe weapon with a mace weapon. Picking this card up means pivoting to a completely different play style. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

What do we think of the new art for the strength card? 👀👀

Card reaper cards finally have a little bit of an RNG aspect to them! This will make collecting and finding rare cards so much more fun. Check out the update now! john9francis.itch.io/card-reaper

Little sneak peak behind the scenes coding Card Reaper... Some crazy updates coming soon!! Any guesses what feature we're working on?

New friend joined the graveyard 👀

New surprise waiting at the end of the graveyard... check it out now! john9francis.itch.io/card-reaper
