Hello Everyone!
Some big changes to expand the strategy side of the game. I have added a number of new effects which also has increased the card and stone pool to pull from.
With this change I have also added a new system called status triggers. Each card now has 1 effect that is considered the main effect. When a card is played, the main effect has the potential to trigger other effects based on various conditions.
Played a card with a burn main effect? Melt any ice on the target and cause blindness.
Played a card with a poison main effect? Add weakness status if the target is also bleeding.
Played a card with a heal main effect? Increase regen potency on yourself.
Played a card with a ice main effect? Turn water and bleed effect on target into additional ice.
I have also updated a number of systems, you can now fight a number of different enemies in once combat. Also enemies will either attack or defend and play appropriate actions around that.
As always let me know of any issues or feedback!
