I made a game.
card details have changed since I uploaded that image
Deck of Many Dungeons is a 54-card dungeon-crawling adventure for 1 to 2 players. Players form a party, enter the dungeon, defeat monsters, level up, learn new skills, and take on mighty bosses -- all in just a handful of cards.
You can play the game either by printing your own copy or importing the deck files into Tabletop Simulator. The rules and other files can be found here.
I'm very eager for feedback, so if you do end up giving the game a try, please let me know. Anyone who so much as tries to play the game will earn a spot in the credits -- please let me know how you'd like to be credited.

Oh, interesting... I haven't read through the rules though, as the 17 page rulebook dissuades a casual browsing.
Tabletop Simulator? Oh, it's a commercial program. And fairly expensive. Is there any way to play this card game online without spending money? If so, I might try it. I had assumed there would be a range of systems for playing arbitrary card or PnP games online.
Do you now have art for all the cards?

It's not as bad as the page count makes it out to be: the first page is TOC, and the main body of the rules runs to page 9. After that, it's FAQ, credits, and appendix.TMC wrote:Oh, interesting... I haven't read through the rules though, as the 17 page rulebook dissuades a casual browsing.
And, really, if you want to get a feel for the general flow of the game, you need look no further than the Overview.
VASSAL is a system that exists, but I don't have any experience with it. Since it's got a good following on BGG, I'll probably do the research before the contest period ends.TMC wrote:Tabletop Simulator? Oh, it's a commercial program. And fairly expensive.

A more labor-intensive version of playing it online would be to generate a virtual deck and map it to the game's cards, tracking your gamestate on your own... but I'd recommend just printing the game if you're going to go through that much trouble.
No, not even close. I have one finished (two if the Paladin is finished -- he's colored but not signed) and about ten pencils.TMC wrote:Do you now have art for all the cards?

My brother is the illustrator; I did the rest of the art aside from the iconography, which is CC-BY.
At this point, he's done sketches for about half of the cards (my favorite is the Bard), but the kobolds are the only complete illustration so far.
