Good afternoon,
My name is Daniel, born in New Zealand, raised in England and now living in San Francisco. I am currently producing a deck construction game and I am sure I will need a lot of support and I am happy to help others in any ways I can.
I have recently run a successful Kickstarter campaign for a comic book and am now turning my attention to a card game set in the same universe.
The card game is a Living Card Game (sucks that the term is protected by Fantasy Flight Games) and the simplest way to describe its mechanics would be as a halfway point between Magic the Gathering and Pokemon Cards, but as I play-test hopefully it will migrate further away from those games and get its own identity.
These are the card designs I am currently working with for play-testing. As you can see I have literally ripped off Magic the Gathering for the mock-ups but am currently looking for a freelance designer to help me overhaul the card layout (which I expect will be difficult as every card will have four abilities, taking up a lot of space).
Hi Rob, that is an excellent idea and I am at that stage of development. I will definitely talk with my designer about how the cards look in the player's hand, and how easy it is to read their abilities when redoing the layout. Thank you :)
