About the game

Card Evolution is the working title for a card battler built on top of an in-development framework.

The central difference is treating each card as something alive: it can take a class, gain levels, receive items, and change form as the player advances through solo campaigns.

Core ideas

  • Cards that evolve and transform through progression
  • Solo campaigns, training, and a future online mode structure
  • Items and classes applied directly to cards
  • Dark fantasy art direction used to test visual tone
