Hey everyone! 👋

I’m excited to introduce Dungeon Cards, (not sure about that name tho-) a fast-paced rogue-like card game inspired by '80s arcade games! This is my first devlog, and I’d love to share a bit about how the game came to be and where it’s headed.

🎴 What is Dungeon Cards?

Imagine a world where Slay the Spire meets high-score arcade machines. In Arcade Card Clash, your goal is simple:
⏳ Defeat as many enemies as possible in just 4 minutes!

• Randomized decks – Adapt to the hand you get.
• Fast-paced battles – No slow turns, only action.
• Retro aesthetics – 16x16 pixel enemies, 32x32 pixel cards, and strict 4-color limitations for a true '80s arcade feel.
• High-score challenge – Compete to be the best!

🛠 Development Challenges

Bringing this game to life wasn’t easy! One of the biggest challenges was getting the game to work both locally and on Itch.io due to file import issues. But after some adjustments, it's now running perfectly in the browser! 🎉

Another challenge was designing a UI that captures the retro arcade vibe while remaining functional and readable. There’s still more polishing to do, especially if I decide to make it mobile-friendly.

🔥 What’s Next?

I have some exciting ideas for future updates, including:
🔹 New visual styles – some more retro aesthetics as secret unlocks!
📱 Possible mobile support – Adjusting UI and controls for touchscreens.
🔄 More cards & enemies – Expanding the variety for more replayability.

But before that, I need YOUR feedback! 💬

💬 Try it out & let me know what you think!

The game is now available to play for free on Itch.io!  Give it a try, challenge your high score, and let me know:

• What do you think of the difficulty?
• Any suggestions for new cards or enemies?

Thanks for checking out my first devlog! Expect more updates soon. 🔥
