Alice Cross has absolutely smashed it on this card illustration for Bloody Mary.
Notice how I *don't* say "Bloody Mary" three times in the vid.

Fun Fact!
This design motif in Curse of Cards is inspired by ancient "Cup and Ring" marks found on megalithic stones. These can be found (in the real-world) across the Atlantic seaboard of Europe.

Here’s a super low-tech way of getting nice (and cheap) light effects in Unreal with decals.
Work smarter, not harder.

It's occurred to me that I never actually showed how the card game plays.
So here is a Curse-of-Cards-crash-course!

Fun fact - while making Curse of Cards I learned that giving 200 cards their own 3D buttons is a great way to nuke your framerate.
Solution? One "smart" button set that reattaches itself to whichever card you pick.

You’re totally right!
It’s one of those things that you don’t notice until it’s a problem, throwing you out of the experience.
Card backs have now been updated to gel with the clean lines of the Key Art.
Gotta love some sheen.

Aw, thanks! 🙏
It’s comments like this that give me energy! 😁
Lots of behind‑the‑scenes optimisation for Curse of Cards on Steam Deck lately.
And while I’ve been deep in that, Jacob’s finished an awesome new piece - the "Bone Raven Familiar".
If this is your bag, baby, check it out on Steam:

A mate of mine let me borrow his Steam Deck for testing.
Curse of Cards actually runs on it!
I still have a big task ahead of me moving the game over to use baked lighting for lower end hardware.

You are the hero this world needs.
For Curse of Cards this week, one of our illustrators, Jacob McFadden has blessed us with another work.
The Owl Familiar attaches to a card and allows it to attack anywhere on the table.
Very useful!

Thank you 🙏
If possible I want to find a way for Curse of Cards to run on Switch 1.
Although I’m using Unreal 5, which is pretty heavy running on the handheld.
Aw, cheers!
It absolutely makes my day hearing stuff like this.
Oh daymn.
That’s cool.
How does he usually get new games then?
GoG?
All perfectly usable, I'm sure 😁

Curse of Cards has had an option added to reduce camera rotation during matches.
Thanks to @CamaradeOurs on TwitterX for the suggestion - here's a side by side.

That’s awesome thank you!
Initially, yes, just on Steam - but I do intend to release on consoles and Switch 2 as well.
Oh, awesome!
This is super helpful, thanks! 🙏
“Rad” is exactly how I want it to look! 😁
I haven’t settled on a price point yet.
Might as well ask - how much would you expect it to cost?
That’s totally fair 😂
