Fielding interest in side projects and games
🕑 Added 2016-11-08 19:14:55 +0000 UTC On the comic webpage is a new tab called, "Cards."This is an experiment that I was interested in running by my Patrons. The idea is that it's a tool for freeform RPing and homebrew games.
Create a deck. Add cards. Add keywords with a '!' character before the word or add stats. Draw them at random. I should clarify that this is not a game. This is a tool, much like dice. Only instead of getting numbers, you get lore and images you've selected yourself.
I can't take this much farther without funding, so this is in your hands. It's completely functional as is, and I want you guys to have it whether or not you're interested in paying for an update.
Please be kind and don't edit decks that don't belong to you.
Some things I'd add if I had the time:
- Virtually unlimited draw size
- Password protection on decks
- Move cards to your hand
- Consolidate entire game on a single page
- Minor visual touch-ups
- Store card title and description as data
- Patron requested features

I don't RP much but I like the premise of having a tool like that help to decide where a story is going. It'd be interesting to try it out for sure!

Just a little general clunkiness - off the top of my head though: -I had some cards draw rotated (upside-down) when not in Tarot mode -When you flip an upside-down card, it's turned the right way up when you flip it back over (though it looked like this might be intentional?)

It definitely does. Did you run into any specific issues?

I really like the idea but messing around for a couple of minutes it definitely needs some work.
