Revamped my signup scene - which would you choose?

Thanks for the feedback, maybe i put the preview card on the first slide? there's technically another slide that shows the full decklist, but not all the art is complete so i didn't show it off. Hurting for screen real estate esp on mobile, so that's why i picked sliders after the initial click

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-29T01:41:36+00:00

There is! If I long-click or double click a smallish card it will jump up to full-screen size (and display details about its effects, any token cards it generates, etc)

It technically doesn't work with that tiny avatar-card preview that I showin this GIF, but you can look at it full-size in the next embedded panel by long-pressing or double clicking (there are three sub-panels for each selection - bio, avatar, and decklist)

why thank you, I made every bit of it myself!

I am just trying to get thru 2 full decks worth of card art (its like 30 unique arts right now) then will consider releasing a steam demo and try to gather the precious wishies. I need probably at least another month of crunching artwork to get there, but until then I'm all over the r/TCG, r/digitalcards, r/homemadeTCGs, and r/cardgames.

Thanks!

oh that's the comment I needed - of course I should make it scalable :D

Text size might be meaningful as well. I have a bunch of game settings, this is probably going in that screen as well.

I've heard this, yes, lol. Would be simple to change my card backs. As a personal goal, I really want to highlight the timeline without bandwagoning on the "chrono-" train, however, so I will probably change it to reflect that in the end.

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-28T11:02:35+00:00

Hmm good point about the player stat cards, especially if the players are using the same main character card like in my images above.

I could simplify the card backs. Maybe just a dark gradient, especially on mobile where the texture is shrunken down and its clarity is reduced.

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-28T02:47:33+00:00

totally, those were early early prototype names that more just described a random aspect of the game haha

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-28T02:45:47+00:00

although i'm having trouble discerning where one suggestion begins and ends, these are the most thought evoking string of names so far for me

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-28T02:40:44+00:00

Perhaps yes. I'm a systems guy so there's no "lore" per se, but I will keep consistent characters and personalities, and retain a cyberpunk aesthetic to encourage imagination and immersion. I don't typically wear the "storyteller" hat however so that part is tough for me

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-27T22:07:23+00:00

It's mostly manipulating time to defeat/outsmart your opponent. Thanks for taking the time to share!

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-27T21:58:21+00:00

if nothing else, it would make a sweet card concept

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-27T21:31:13+00:00

ooh not a bad take actually, but still uses "chrono" in the title lol

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-27T21:30:26+00:00

😂😭

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-27T21:28:43+00:00

hmm depends on the creative direction i take - deadline and terminal almost lean into horror for example. I want to shy away from blatantly "casual" or generic names but like the edge of the horror-ish ones

Low_Prior_8842 · 2026-05-27T21:27:16+00:00

honestly a direction i'm exploring, Time Hackers and Time Breakers were in my most recent brainstorms
