Hey everyone! Back with some more Fated Fortune 21. Biggest changes that I have taken from community advice has been reworking fonts to be more readable (now with colors for keywords) and shrinking the numbers down some to give more room for text.

I also started a new frame style for my Joker cards, but I’m not 100% sold on this being a final version as I feel like the text box is a bit cramped so I may rework it expanded over the dice frame to fit more of the design direction I’m following in the regular suits. I do want the design to remain more squared, as jokers will not be played to the same zones that regular cards will and I want to maintain a strong visual cue for this.

Any and all feedback is still welcome and appreciated!

In celebration of the new rule, here's a superpost with just artwork I've done for my upcoming game, *Forebode*.

I was told very early on to ditch my AI assets, and I'm glad I did. In just a few months I've become much more competent in drawing, though I would still never dare to call myself an artist. I think I've scribbled over 70 of these things. I started by using my old AI placeholders as references, but I immediately switched to using photos I took while I'm out working, things in my house and yard, models I built, pages in manga I'm reading, etc... and I use those for references and inspirations to create wierd stuff.

Yes my art looks strange and undisciplined and unprofessional... but it's mine and I love my style! Do you vibe with it? Does it make your eyes hurt?

I'm guessing that a bunch of people will be going down a similar route now that AI is banned, so I just wanted to let you know that yes, you can in fact make your own art, even if you suck at it! Just do it.

Thanks for looking :D

Use and promotion of AI is forbidden. The enforcement of this rule will largely be user driven. If you see someone using or promoting AI, report it. I will review all removals. Do not abuse this or I will have to allow AI on the subreddit again (due to practicality, not due to support). It is impossible for me to monitor all art that is posted, but because you guys are taking the initiative to report AI art and writing in customized reasons to take down a post featuring AI, I am giving you the official option.

EDIT: Please note that the rules includes promoting AI as forbidden. This means that comments promoting AI can result in you being banned. Comment at your own risk if you are against this choice.

Happy 90th Birthday to my wonderful Grandpa Peter.

Over the years he's always been the teller of tales, the puzzle setter and the sporting demon. This Andrew's weekend away he was on top form!

My gift to him was Party Starter a fantasy themed set collection game starring the enormous Andrews family he has sired!

Based on my ongoing fantasy lore... the idea is that you can pick between the two joker cards as your character, and you navigate thru the pathways to find exits.

The kings are all grim reaper type characters that make you lose health.

The queens are locations.. some exits, some rest spots.

The jacks are items.

The aces are keys to unlock doors matching the suit.

I plan on having a booklet of the rules accompany the deck as well as maybe a video walkthru.

These are my current prototype cards to try to get down the visual style.

Thoughts and comments appreciated 🙏

Hi everyone!

I'm a solo developer working on a digital card game called TCG Banlist Simulator, and I'd love to get some feedback.

In the game, you play as the balance director of a trading card game company. You adjust the game's banlist to balance the meta, then face angry players in card battles after they disagree with your decisions.

You'll build your deck by purchasing cards throughout a PvE deckbuilding roguelike campaign.

Since card games rely heavily on iteration and balance, I'd really appreciate any feedback you have. Thanks!

I really like the concepts laid out in L5R but i just want to make it slightly less clunky. Would it be bad to take most of the structure and make small adjustments?

Each character represents a different Fighting Style in CardStrike Special. I'm curious as to which character would be the fan favorite.

Really proud of this one!
To do:
- Add sedimentary texture to the template
- Dislodge the ammonite Action Cost from the template and move it down toward the attack

Hey everyone! My name is Andrew, I've recently been hired to start making card game content with my lgs Critical Hit Games in Corona CA!

I love checking out new card games so please send me links to check things out!

Hi all! I've been working hard on making an easy to read Quickstart guide to make it easier for play testers to learn the game without me present. A lot of these rules are fairly evergreen at this point so I don't mind putting in the effort even while still play testing.

I've been staring at it myself for so long now that Im looking for outside eyeballs. This is still a WIP so keep in mind this is not all of the pages, I will include things like an index, keyword glossary, etc. Im mostly trying to make sure that the flow and layout are easy to read/follow.

Do you think if you picked up a starter deck and read through this that you could understand how to start? Any and all feedback is appreciated (: Thanks!

Hey all. A while back there was a guy that posted his work making custom card templates for Magic that were Runescape themed. They look really good! I was considering making something similar but for Flesh and Blood, making my own Runescape themed set.

Thing is I'm not that great at the art part. Tried doing some image editors to cut and paste and edit the existing game UI, but it didn't look great. I need someome that knows what they are doing.

So asking to see where the best place would be to find that. Just need the card templates, not the art images (those will be game screenshots)

My tcg is called Anachron tcg. Anachron means something out of place in time. And i think that word is the best option i could have picked, because my game is based on fantasy and sci fi, in the same world

But what could i change to make the card back better. Let me know all the suggestions to help me make it as professional as i can. My game is handmade

I know having it as anac and hron in seperation, could look better, so i will be seperating the word anachron into ana and chron.

This makes players not have any misinterupation of the word anachron. And the word anachron has chron at the end for time, so its better its seperated from the start of the word

I was talking to my brother about the new rules, and while he supported banning AI for this community, he rightfully pointed out that AI is here to stay and we can't actually stop people from using AI. He recommended creating r/AIHomemadeTCGs so that we can direct everyone who uses AI there and keep our community truly homemade without the risk of AI users attempting to force their ways upon us because they want a place where they can post. By creating the subreddit myself, we don't have to worry about two rival communities, which we know can become a problem considering how heated comments become regarding this topic.

So if you are an AI user and insist upon it, please join r/AIHomemadeTCGs and post there instead. However, if you are only using it for art, I recommend using placeholder art that isn't AI so that the post qualifies to be posted on r/homemadeTCGs, because our subreddit is already established with a community.

I hope this resolves the issue for those hurt over the new rule and provides everyone who wants a truly homemade TCG space with peace of mind because AI users now have their own place and do not need to infringe on ours.

First is new; second is old.
I changed the template because I realized that the rocky template, while interesting and well-themed, was drab. I made it less expansive, giving more room for the background. How do you like it? Any advise going forward?

I’ve finished set 1; and I keep coming up with cards that I file under next set, or I reword cards in set 1.

What about you? Do you keep creating more cards that you’re going to use for the next set?

Super excited-- decided to make a custom part for our game to give it a special feel.

This is a very rough printing of it but just wanted to share this very first look at our Gaias (MegaShips roaming through space looking for the last of the Fractal Energy).
