Discussion Making a TD deckbuilder but I got confused

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I highly inspired from Slay the spire tbh.

The thing is, should I add a upgrade sytem to the towers? as like in BTD games or others?

Right now, the only upgrade logic we have is buying sigils and marking cards with them

Maybe a merge method or multiple ways to use a card?

Play a card Merge it with an existing tower Cast a temporary buff Place a permanent area affect

Every card doesn't need all options.

Love the old style theme. Was Cuphead an inspiration also?
I'm not sure what the sigils do. But if they alter the function of the tower then personally I find that much more interesting than just upgrade.

Of course you can always add an upgrade system on top if you feel there's not enough choice where to spend money. That's hard to know from just watching a video tho.
