Feedback Form
Steam post image
We’ve introduced a brand-new, highly requested feedback form! This addition also gives us a chance to chat a bit about how we handle your suggestions in general.
The form is built directly into the game and features several categories to help guide your input. If you aren't sure which one to choose, simply select"Feedback."When submitting, you’ll also need to include an emoji—we aren't 100% sure if this is the absolute best method yet, but we’re testing it out to see if it helps us better categorize and prioritize our attention.
Feedback Categories
Feedback: General thoughts, whether positive or negative.
Balance: Specifically for suggestions regarding card stats, mechanics, and game balance.
Bug: For reporting technical issues (we think we all know what these look like!).
Accessibility: Feedback on how it feels to interact with the game visually, audibly, or through inputs. If something is difficult to see, hear, or control, please let us know!
Where to Share
While we collect feedback from every source we can find, we would prefer for it to go through our Discord. Centralizing everything there helps us aggregate data more efficiently and allows the community to see and support each other's ideas.
We will still keep an eye on the Steam forums, but Discord remains our primary hub. Because of this, the in-game form sends your feedback directly to a public Discord channel. Please be aware that when you submit, your message will be visible to others. Don’t worry, though—the form uses a separate bot to handle the delivery, so it isn’t linked to your personal Discord account.
Visual Upgrades
We have implemented several visual tweaks to improve clarity:
- Animated BordersAdded new animations to card borders to clearly indicate which cards can be activated and which cannot.
Improved Drop Zones: Visualization for play areas has been enhanced; drop zones are now larger and more responsive, making it easier to play your cards exactly where you want them.
Tutorial
The tutorial has received minor adjustments to its pacing and instructions to make the onboarding process both faster and easier to understand.
Campaign
AI Improvements: Refined the behavior of AI opponents for a more strategic challenge.
- Expanded ContentAdded new enemies and a larger map featuring more encounters to explore.
- (NoteNarrative dialogue is still in development and will be improved in future updates)
Other Improvements
Performance: Significant improvements to startup load times.
- Steam CloudAdded Steam Cloud Save support to sync your progress across devices.
- ProgressionAdjusted the underlying mechanics for how card unlocks are handled.
