Our big inspirations are Slay the Spire and Pixel Dungeon, and Card Crusade aspires to be a game in that same vein.

Turns out there's a ton of other games that use it -- Orna, Dungeon Quest, a few others. They're high-quality royalty-free sprites at a good price, so why not? andsoitgoes, Son of Anarchy and sugimulm like this. jones2929 Well-Known Member Jun 24, 2010 70 1 8 Los Angeles #8 jones2929, Feb 26, 2019 Love this game.

The fact that this is portrait though is drawing me in. houseofg likes this. sugimulm Well-Known Member Aug 28, 2010 2,456 46 48 The last time zone for iOS game releases :( #10 sugimulm, Feb 26, 2019 Thank you for the clarification.

Expecially good for roguelikes me thinks. Game looks right up my alley, (allthough unlike anthony78 I prefer landscape... oh well). Had a few dollars sitting in my app store account.... so you just got my support. Edit: Ugh, my pet hate. Only seperate on/off for music and sound effects. Really wish you could add sliders, as I always prefer to have the music at a lower level than sound effects but not completely off when playing games. Amended; Game is indeed universal. One purchase will get you the iPad and iPhone versions. lincolnb Member Feb 26, 2019 15 10 3 Male Developer United States http://pollywog.games #12 lincolnb, Feb 27, 2019 Thanks for the purchase, every sale counts Weird, I meant to make it universal ... will have to look into that. And I had no idea people cared about the sliders thing, that is good to know! stubbieoz Well-Known Member Jun 23, 2015 1,878 355 83 Male Grey haired gamer NSW Australia #13 stubbieoz, Feb 27, 2019 I don’t know if you did anything or something happened this end, but I just checked and it is now indeed universal. I have amended my post above to reflect that. Sorry for any miscommunication. Really good game btw. lincolnb likes this.

Looks interesting but I’d like to hear more about the rogue aspects of it - i.e. what do you keep/lose/progress after each run if anyone can help please. lincolnb Member Feb 26, 2019 15 10 3 Male Developer United States http://pollywog.games #16 lincolnb, Feb 27, 2019 Sort of, we released it in early access last December but I don't think it was announced here. The only thing that has the potential to change between runs is which characters you have unlocked. There are 8 character classes total and only one of them is unlocked at the start. Everything other than that is randomized: floor layout, which monsters you fight, which cards you pick up, items in the shop, what altars you see, it's all different every time. And of course, your high scores persist between runs so you can compete on the global leaderboard. orangecan Well-Known Member Aug 9, 2011 1,997 145 63 #17 orangecan, Feb 27, 2019 Thanks very much, I’m sorely tempted..... aconfusedkender Well-Known Member Sep 28, 2012 1,362 122 63 Oil & Gas Kendermore, Ansalon #18 aconfusedkender, Feb 27, 2019 I’m a huge fan of card type games and roguelikes. I will say this as I’ve played a little bit and am working my way through with the Viking. It would be cool if you could preset a deck before a run to try different combinations or whatnot. I know everything once you hit the start button is randomized but just a thought. Beth Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Jan 29, 2014 126 8 18 Professional do-nothing'er Eastern usa #19 Beth, Feb 28, 2019 This looks good! I’m all about a good premium card/rouge-like. Especially one with such a reasonable file size I really like these graphics/characters ...doesn’t bother me a bit that other games use similar, I actually prefer this style and find it really visually pleasing Also... Just from watching the brief trailer above, this looks to have quite original mechanics/movement....IMO the Appstore screenshots don’t do this game justice, it also needs a brief video gameplay/trailer added too. lincolnb Member Feb 26, 2019 15 10 3 Male Developer United States http://pollywog.games #20 lincolnb, Feb 28, 2019 I agree, a roguelike where you control your starting layout and such would be a lot of fun ... a bit more ambitious than we're willing to take on though Our dev version in Unity lets us pre-build decks which we used for testing! Just can't release that for liability reasons though. Ah, I should have done that. Now it's too late b/c you have to submit a new binary in order to update anything in the App store listing.

I think it is kind of free character resources on the internet, I have seen a lot of games using the same art style, so that is not the problem, hope there are some developers can confirm. update: Thanks to raravan's replying, finally I know where to get this kind of resource.
