If you love single player deck builders but are lowk fatigued by the sea of roguelikes, you owe it to yourself to play Checkmage. Its been years since I played anything thats scratched the itch of wandering a world, collecting cards, & building & rebuilding my deck for fights @oleogustus.itch.io

EMUUROM IS FINALLY OUT! store.steampowered.com/app/1634360/...

Checkmage! will be showcasing an updated demo at PIGCon on May 30th. come check it out, it'll be a blast! pigcon.pigsquad.com

this is disappointing to me... ive seen a lot of this in the past few months, and i feel like some games have felt obviously poisoned by ai in their design process, even if the developers claim to not use it. checkmage and all my future projects will remain AI-free and i hope that matters to people
