Galactic Overlord
We are now in open beta. Please feel free to discuss the game on our discord! https://discord.gg/5adKGA7t
You are the galactic overlord, but your position has weakened. Civil war among the factions has broken out! You must use your influence with the various factions to defeat the rebels!
Each faction is represented by a color. You have enough favor with each faction to play one card of theirs per turn. You must make sure your deck is BALANCED to utilize all of them effectively.
During your turn, you draw 5 cards, which you can play as long as you haven't used the relevant faction's favor. You may target your own field to add allies and structures, or use actions to target the enemy.
When you have played everything you want, click the advance turn button at the lower-right-hand corner of the screen. Then, your allies will attack. They choose targets randomly unless they have a special ability. Your structures will not attack, but they will perform any actions they have. Then, the enemy takes their turn, doing the same.
Each player starts with 20 life. The first to 0 loses! If you win, you pick a card and advance to the next round. Your health is not restored. How long can you last?

I sacrificed a bunch of fish bowl head dudes and became immortal.
Pretty solid gameplay so far, every faction seems strong/useful. I feel like Green snowballs the hardest with the brood guy getting stronger for each green unit, especially with spores. Card art is cool, and text is easy to read.
As far as any other feedback, mostly just misc stuff lol. The high pitch card action sound effect is quite loud. The pitch variance on the 'pop' sound when selecting cards is good. The white tutorial boxes are very likely a placeholder, though it might be worth changing their color if it's a low priority. Some of the stars on the title screen are cut in half lol.
Thanks for checking it out! Yeah, the tutorial stuff is def a placeholder. Easy to turn down the card action sfx, so i'll get on that. Glad you enjoyed it!
The assassin with the rabit is broken. Causing almost 20 damage in turn 1. Wondeful game. Remembers me of Magic the Gathering.
Agree, so powerful
We'll probably nerf that a bit if we continue work on this!
