A deck building game where you try and blacksmith your way to victory.
This was take number 3. I scrapped two projects before settling on this one.
So this project was essentially started on Saturday at about 5:00 Est.
It's lacking some polish, but considering it's was about a half a jam worth of time I'm happy with it.
Sorry for the lack of tutorial, time was just too short.
How to play.
* Double click to buy/play cards.
* You can click the "Play all button to play all your non consumable cards to speed things up"
* You generally play all the cards in your hand each turn.
* It is a deck builder, you buy cards from the middle and top rows to add to your deck.
* When your deck runs out, your discard shuffles back into your deck.
* There are two resources, Coins and Metal. Most cards provide one of these resources.
* Playing these cards grant you those resources for the turn.
* There are also Victory Points (VP) which you mostly get from the top row cards.
* Just having the VP cards in your deck gives you the VP.
* You win by getting to 21 VP before the Computer.
* Cards you can interact with are highlighted in purple.
Typical strategy,
Try to buy cards that increase your money early on.
Then focus on cards that give a lot of metal.
Once you have a few "better" cards than your starter deck, use the apprentice and waste bin to start discarding the +1 cards to lean out your deck.
Once you have a decent base of cards, start buying the victory point cards.
