not bad, feel you should get more mana back sacking high energy cards instead of one, its not bad even though i did only two fights don't find combat that fun, unlike similar games, magic far more fun since there's mana cards and way you tap and untap cards, gl with the game. I'll give it 6/10 current state of demo, and no to comments says "oh it gets better later" sorry if game isn't fun off the bat why am i playing it?
also little story things in town, have more of those, that was more interesting then card game itself

We ge it, you're making a game, you don't need to spam back-to-back messages with gigantic ad images. Every single one I see makes me want to try out your game even less.
What's wrong with posting game news? And this is the thread of this game
Have not tried it yet, but the art looks amazing. Question to the dev: how many girls are planned? and will there be futa content like in the last game or can we turn it off? (it's a huge turnoff)
Because the OP is where you advertise the game, not the rest of the thread.
You're making consecutive advert posts with giant images and excessive formatting to promote your game, so you're both spamming and misusing the thread.

Fuck DLCs! If you developed it, put it in the game, name a price and don't fuck around with things i need to pay extra.

Demo V0-2 save fixed
Same thing instruction
File Explorer + Windows + User + Appdata + Locallow + TopHouse + AURAHentaiCards = Place the new save
In general, I tried to play and apparently it turned out to be a bug: during the battle with the red-haired card, they begin to disappear (sometimes they are not displayed). Somehow he defeated her, but there is no award or promotion in her story.
And I still don't understand what is meant by "magic damage".
And I still don't understand what is meant by "magic damage".
Seems a bit unbalanced, cannot make it through any of the oponents and I can't get more money to keep upgrading the stats... Am I missing something?
This is the comment I've ever seen. Thumb up for you my brother!
Saw this in recent updates, gave it a shot...
Generally, the battle system felt far too simplistic. You don't really have a deck or a discard pile; each draw just randomly gives you one of the cards you have equipped. And the card effects themselves are... pretty boring? Spend mana to do damage, or more mana to do more damage, or even more mana to do... even more damage. Or maybe you spend mana to defend or heal instead. There's just not enough going on here compared to basically any card battler to hold my attention.
I understand that this is an early demo, and things might change... but there's no need for three of the five cards in the starting cardset to be completely generic "spend X mana to do Y damage" cards. It's 2023; Slay the Spire did much better than that six years ago. Give the player a more interesting starting toolkit or you'll bore them to death. Granted, not every card battler needs to be quite as involved as Slay the Spire... but the game did redefine the genre, and not idly did many other card battlers copy the formula. You can certainly do different things than the StS developers did, but just doing less of them isn't enough.
As a specific problem, the way that cards both cost one mana to draw and reward one mana on discard is... kinda dumb? You can just keep discarding and redrawing until you have your desired hand, completely removing the randomness from the card game aspect. There are valid games that work like that, but if that's how the strategy is intended to work, you'd be better off scrapping the cards entirely, giving the player full access to all their skills, and letting them pick their moves for the round off a menu like a classic JRPG.

That's a really dumb design. I don't think anyone from WotC or Konami originally created their respective games with the core gameplay loop expanding to include grave interaction, but it was certainly designed to where players were limited to the cards in their decks and the strategies designed around them. It made deck-building far more involved since you had to conceptualize consistency and ratios over the randomization of shuffling.
This, combined with
Tells me that no thought was put into the overall gameplay design whatsoever. Players should never be punished for a free action at the beginning of a turn, but also shouldn't be able to perform a free action indefinitely until they gain the optimized hand for their situation. Part of what makes a card game appealing is that resource management couples with card design. The most fundamental concept for a competent card game is to design a resource system that requires players to understand how it operates and how to best utilize it with the cards they possess while seeking to establish their strategy. A stun deck in YGO or Magic will use low-cost disruption and symmetrical resource limiters to keep the opponent from ending the game quickly. An aggro deck seeks to use low-cost creatures and spells to push for an early kill.
Having an infinite draw loop and spells that say "do damage" is not a good design and honestly, I can see this game getting review bombed on Steam, and rightfully so. When your core game design is this bad and you can't be bothered to engage with the forums where you're spamming ads, then I don't feel any pity for your games getting trashed and your patreon bucks dropping to zero.
