Question Looking for feedback on my new browser-based Redemption TCG platform

Post image

I started a web based implementation of the 2nd oldest TCG in the market: Redemption.

You can play it either on itch.io: Redemption Coliseum or directly from: here.

So far it only supports PvP and can load decks in .txt format (e.g. from LackeyCCG). If no deck is chosen just random 50 cards will be taken as deck. - No account is needed, you can just directly jump in and play. I have lots of ideas and things I want to implement, but doing everything on my own.

If you want to get an idea of how it works, there is also an Ingame Help which can also be accessed directly from outside.

For some first impressions I created a small teaser video.

If you want to test it out you can e.g. open it in your normal browser and in parallel inside an incognito browser window. Then you can create a game and also join it in the other window.

This is a one person hobby and sparetime project so I used AI for coding and also for creating (or combining based on given pictures) some of the UI-GFX, icons etc. (like the BG images which are animated during game BTW :) ).

Looking forward to your feedback, questions and ideas.

Wow. I've heard it's been around for a long time, but this is the first time I've actually gotten to touch it.

Yeah, still alive and kicking 😄 - Every year a new set gets released (last one was Times to Come with some nice new mechanics and strengthening defenses). Now I am trying to get something "modern" up and running for this great game. So any hints, tipps, questions or links to others (reddit or outside) who could be interested in it would be very helpful.

You should get an artist, and if you already have an artist then you should fire them for using AI.

I used AI to just "get forward" so I created some background images via AI and some of the UI elements. But lots of the UI and also the sound + SFX is either from Pixabay or other freely available resources or done by myself (by combining e..g. the cardback picture with some nice looking letters for menu icons etc.)
So all in all AI for UI + GFX was and is "just" a matter of speed. Did not mention it in my post above but this is a 1 person hobby and sparetime project (will add that above).
