In another time, this might have been a wee hit Flash game on Newgrounds.
There you are, a little guy, stood still at the bottom of the screen.
You have a hand of four cards, representing different attacks and power-ups.
choose the card you want to play, aim your shot, and let it go.
And yes, this all happens in real time, not turn-based.
Killing enemies also gives XP, levelling you up.
At first, many of these are straightforward upgrades.
Swap a two-energy five-shot spray for a two-energy nine-shot spray.
And power-ups which restore energy, or make shots bounce, and so on.
That’s an interesting deck-building decision.
It’s a tidy little arcade net internet ride game.
Shmup but deck-building with maybe a touch ofVampire Survivors?
Fun, and free.
The developer, Kindanice, notes, “more content coming soon!”
That’ll be nice.
I do like deck-building a lot, having grown up playing Magic: The Gathering.
I liked Magic enough that I got in too deep and needed to playing.
Like Pong or Breakout but with perks and violence?
Nice little game, that.
Yes, must play more of these.
That’s my afternoon sorted.
