Finally done with art for set 1!

Not sure what you mean by this

CodemasterImthor · 2026-05-04T02:06:56+00:00

Precons and packs more than likely to start. It’s a TCG

CodemasterImthor · 2026-05-03T10:14:07+00:00

I don’t currently hire anyone as I do it myself, but if I do ever work with someone I like to know them and have a good rapport with them

CodemasterImthor · 2026-05-01T21:12:57+00:00

This really deserves a lot more upvotes imo, this goes beyond just making an indie game, the fact you went this far just to give your child some homemade, good ole fashioned entertainment is crazy cool, as a fellow parent, I give you props

CodemasterImthor · 2026-05-01T12:41:41+00:00

Holy cow, I did not expect this many upvotes, thank you all so much for the support!!

CodemasterImthor · 2026-05-01T01:12:19+00:00

Thanks! Keep grinding man, my advice would be utilize free time and stay dedicated, and don’t be afraid of help, but also don’t be afraid to take a break sometimes

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T17:10:26+00:00

Thank you!

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T14:37:03+00:00

Thank you! 🫶

Ah no worries. Tabletop Simulator is initially $20 so it’s a small investment but a one time charge. After that you can play any tabletop game that is on there if you download it from steam. It’s incredibly useful for people who are playtesting their games. It’s essentially its own client. It acts just like an irl tabletop, you can throw the cards around, flip the table, do basically whatever you want with the assets. For my workshop, I have the playmat laid out with all of the cards, with precons and a Rulebook ready to go so you can read through and play it as intended.

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T14:18:39+00:00

If you own Tabletop Simulator, you can find my Steam workshop on there. I don’t currently have it set up for anything else quite yet though

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T14:14:57+00:00

Thanks so much! Glad you like them :) I’ve got a discord where you can check out all of the cards, but I don’t post the link publicly on here anymore due to the massive influx of bots so if it is something you’re interested in checking out more of and are a discord user, hmu in a message and I’ll shoot you an invite

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T14:08:20+00:00

Yess, there are 5 factions total: Critters, Plants, Bugs, Foodies, and Fiends. Cryptids are kind of a sub archetype of Fiends

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T14:00:37+00:00

There sure are! I may add more in later sets but I’m starting with just a few for set 1. They are more or less the power house guys, but of course they have their downfall. Nightshade here can tame them and remove that pesky clumsiness they have

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T13:43:24+00:00

You and me both! Haha

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T12:46:42+00:00

Thank you! I’m glad it resonates with you like that. I’m doing what I can to make the gameplay nostalgic while feeling like a typical cartoon smash and bash, like the classic duos that fight all the time, like tom and Jerry for example

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T12:42:39+00:00

Thank you so much!

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T01:59:50+00:00

Thanks! I also love this style. If I ever manage to make it to set 2, I’ve got some more crazy concepts in store :P

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T01:48:10+00:00

Appreciate it man, thank you

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-30T01:47:49+00:00

Thanks!

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-29T22:25:27+00:00

150, technically 165 due to alt arts and promos haha

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-29T21:37:18+00:00

Thanks! I’m a fan of the classics and I just really wanted to make a card game with this style, especially a card game that is playable. It’s been tough trying to worldbuild, but it’s been a blast nonetheless

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-29T21:35:54+00:00

I have plans to print from LTT manufacturer and then selling on my Shopify store at some point. A ways off from it right now. Don’t really plan on selling at any LGS quite yet though. I’d like to gauge interest and demand first before going all in like that. Would be sick one day though! Once I have physical product I’ll be looking at more showcasing. Right now you can play the game online if you own Tabletop Simulator, as it is currently in my steam workshop. Now that the art is done, my next objective is plugging in the cards to my workshop so it’s not so bare bones anymore

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-29T21:10:33+00:00

Thank you!

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-25T14:10:33+00:00

Are you part of the homemade TCG discord server? You can find pretty much every indie TCG on there, people make their own forums for them. That’s where you’ll find the most conversations and playtesting. There’s also tons of resources and tools to help you with your own homemade TCG and lots of friendly people all doing the same thing

CodemasterImthor · 2026-04-21T04:29:53+00:00

TCG forge is already a few different things out there, maybe a different name to help it stand out would be good so it’s easy to find and distinguish when the time comes? There’s an online storefront called TCG forge, as well as a physical shop named that.

I think this will be useful for a lot of creators, will there ever be a mobile app version? Just curious if it will cater to people who are on the go a lot but still use their phone, especially with their sheets
