• Dev Diary IV – Rising to the Demo - 23 August 2026

  Howlers!Another solid development stretch here. We’ve moved from menu and lobby work into the core systems of the game. Card interactions, AI, objectives, multiplayer flow, and a lot of the glue that holds everything together. Here’s some highlights:Stack InspectionOne of the more important quality-of-life features is now in.When a Deploy ability requires the player to choose between multiple cards (for example, looking at the top of a location or selecting from a set of options), the game now filters and clearly displays only the valid choices. This removes a lot of the mental overhead figuring out what you’re actually allowed to pick.It’s a small system on the surface, but it makes abilities that involve choice feel much cleaner and easier to use. It’s also helped give us a foundation for several card effects and we will expand it as more abilities are worked on.Tutorial Logic & Tools…

• Dev Diary III - Menus. Matchmaking & More 🎮 - 20 July 2026

  Howlers!There’s too much to share for us to wait until the end of the month, let’s get to it!House Selection ScreenThis menu has received a major polish pass. It is still a work-in-progress, but players can now clearly see each House, and its unique ability, before they make their choice.Loading ScreenInstead of a static image, it now has a fully animated version. We found it pretty mesmerizing to begin with, and we stared at it for 60 minutes straight to verify we would never get bored of it.Lobby & MatchmakingWe’ve completed a functional lobby prototype so you're able to play online with friends, and also includes bot support. This may look a little rough right now, but it’s a big step for our team. We’re building the framework for both private games and public matchmaking. Host controls, house management, and the basic lobby flow are all under active development. Menu ArtAnother mont…

• Dev Diary II - Forged in fire 🔥 - 29 June 2026

  Howlers! Huge month for us with lots of exciting updates to share. We’re working hard to build something best-in-class that lives up to the standard that both the tabletop and book series have set.Card AnimationsWe’re really happy with how the animations are progressing. We have successfully rigged the original card art, and have begun animating them to bring some life to the characters. And if you’re wondering what that rigging actually looks like, here’s a peek behind the scene. Look at all the controls our animator has available. Big props to our animator, tech artist and fx artist here. Only 108 more cards to go!Card EffectsNo card is complete without a SHADER to make it feel like a real object in your hands, and our FX artist has done a great job creating this effect for all the different borders. Players will be able to handle cards in-game and have them react in this stunning fas…

• DEV DIARY I - 2 June 2026

  The first bits of actual gameplay are starting to make it into the engine. Our team has made good progress on the UI/UX design, and we have the majority of the menus at a first pass. Next step is to start integrating them into the game itself.The Main AttractionAka, the Main Menu. The gif doesn't quite do it justice, but you can already get a sense of the feeling we're going for here. Regal, refined, cinematic and colourful. First StepsWhat you're seeing here is the very first playable version of the game. The cards are all quite complex, so the initial iterations will work on establishing very core mechanics, such as scouting, placing and drawing. Next we'll get the columns working (Jupiter, Mars, Luna, Institute) and from there we'll start working on the cards themselves. What's Next?More UI implementation. Card art and effects. Basic gameplay. If you have any questions about the deve…
