The Developers

We are CrispyMalex and Jack, 2 programmers from germany that never really had finished a game before this one.
Our idea was to develop, test and publish a game in a short time frame, using as little time per week as neccessary to stay motivated, with the target of improving our knowledge and understanding of game-development and -design.
The coding was the easiest part for us but creativity, graphics and sound were our biggest weakness.
We're quiet happy to have finished our journey for now and even have plans for our next game, so stay tuned if You don't want to miss it.

We completed our little prototype from blank canvas to this version in about 80hrs.
We had 3 big game tests sessions in total, the first after around 50hrs of development.
In future projects we want to increase the amount of days we work on a game in order to get more done in a shorter timespan.
We also want to run test sessions earlier and more regularly because the feedback we got was tremendously helpful (Thank You friends!).

As for now this game will just stay in this version but maybe we add updates in the future, when we've gathered more experience.
There are many rough edges in the design but we found no major or distracting bugs while testing.

Hope You have as much fun as we did! :D

Images

All Images on the cards were generated with the use of DeepAI's Image Generator. As for now we see no problem in using such tools in this specific project.

If there is any trouble with the mentioned programm or any artists recognises a familiar artstyle please talk to us! We will remove given artwork/s immediatly and change it with something legitimat. We also don't plan to use AI-Generators in the future, due to an unclear policy regarding training-data and for ethical reasons.

Install instructions

Simply download and execute the game, the first time You have to wait a little while until all save files are created locally.
Because this is just an *.exe-File, You won't install this game to Your Computer, instead all of Your save-files will be stored in %appdata%\Godot\app_userdata\DeckDefense.
So if You plan on starting from the beginning or want to uninstall the game, simply delete the *.exe file together with the DeckDefense-Folder.
