Rolling out card effects

Philosophy Fantasy
A downloadable game for Windows

Hey everyone.

I’ve been working hard on adding card effects. Currently, there are two kinds of card effects:

  • Keywords are card effects that indicate how a card can be used or specific interactions. For example, Permadeath means a card will not return from Limbo after drawing.
  • On Trigger effects are card effects that trigger under certain conditions.

What is very cool about these card effects is that they are programmed outside of the game! The game uses a specially designed script processor to build custom effects.

There is only one card effect in the game, Deleuze and Zeno both have the same effect to return to the hand. Expect to see more variety in the future as I add new functions.
