Tarot Scoundrel, a solitaire game.
Added death stats to help me playtest and balance the game. They are saved at the end of each game. The time played stat will probably not be shown in the game, but it is good for play balancing, #MadeWithUnity

A slight break from dev work. Cat on the stairs in Tarot Scoundrel dungeon. The top is the template, bottom is transform. Based on Escher's Print Gallery. Math from 3Blue1brown video How (and why) to take a logarithm of an image Made with #Unity

Refactoring when adding extra doors did not go quite right. I added a bug. 🐛This is the last room of a level. So there should be no card in the middle, just stairs down to the next level.

Adding extra random doors involved a lot more refactoring than I expected. Here is a run at 3x speed.

I changed from having the same 4 doors on all rooms to having 12 doors and choosing randomly which doors a room has. This gives more variety and allows me to adjust difficulty by changing the number of doors to a room.

I added a cursor for the videos. Also, on the Major arcana (yellow frame), I changed the frame to show the suits of the cards that will be in the pop-up room. Cups: red
Swords: blue
Wands: brown
pentacles: black

To make things a bit harder, I removed the face cards and aces for swords(weapons) and cups(healing potions). This is the same as the original Scoundrel game. Although there are 4 face cards in a tarot deck.

A short run through. I found it too easy. I need to change the balance.

Added an entrance to the dungeon at the beginning and an exit to the next level. The game is still too easy. I played many levels without any problem. The video is at 5x, so I played about 12 m, but the video is under 3 m.

Added a cups marker in the top right to show how many times a cups card can be used in a room. Now I can add an item to allow cups cards to be used twice in a room, and players can see when that item is in effect.

A quick play through to test how difficult the game is before adding magic items. It was going ok until a poor decision at the end killed me.

Entering and exiting normal rooms is working. 🎉 Getting closer to being able to test the game and balance it. I want finishing the first level to be possible after playing once or twice for most people. Then to get harder.

Major Arcana cards pop-up room is working. Select both cards, and then the panel goes away, putting you back in the room you started. In the video, you take a lot of hits, and your score goes up a bit.

Major Arcana cards will turn into one or two minor cards with a total value the same as the major card when selected. This is the pop-up room they appear in.

I added some UI at the top of each with buffs that apply to each card. It also makes it easier to read than the small Roman numerals on the cards.

After watching a video by the "Like be a landlord" dev about power up interactions I decided to add more space for magic itemsat the bottom. So I rearranged the layout.

Today sword. First, we pick up the sword (13), then kill the King of Pents(14), taking 1 hit (14-13) 14 card is on our sword, then kill the 4 of Pents no hits, now 4 is on our sword. Kill the 5 of pents 5>4 on the sword,so sword does not help we take 5 hits

Today we fight enemies. Wands and Pentacles are enemies, and they will reduce your health by their value. In the video, the player goes over to the cups to heal up before fighting the last 2 enemies.

Now when a play uses a cups card and heals the othe cups cards in the room are disabled so they do not heal the player when used.

Have made a complete basic Tarot deck for Scoundrel Tarot. The deal function for entering a room by stairs from above is done. Only the Ace & 2 of cups ( 1st image, top center, right center) have been edited to remove some extra white around the image.
