DARK CARDS OF CANDLEWOOD

A solo collectible card game with the soul of a classic JRPG. Embark on replayable dungeon runs with deceptively deep, two-choice card combat. Can you save the world from eternal darkness?

one of the most peak adult experiences is reaching into the cupboard for more paper towels or to refill the hand soap or whatever and then noticing that you are still fully stocked

i can’t live without aseprite’s animation timeline and tags, but one thing i wish was better is the palette!

id like to freely rearrange my palette independent of the indices, or grab a color and change all pixels of that color at once in RGB mode

the problem is always stuff like conditional effects, targeting, etc. if the icons are partial or inaccurate it feels super bad when the actual attack does something unexpected

i'd need a really robust system to evaluate all that and reduce it into a series of legible icons that fit on the screen

you do get the color and icon in the current version, but I haven't solved condensing the card behavior to a series of icons

feels like a price I have to pay to get richer enemy behaviors and letting you interact with the enemy deck of cards?
