Card Combat

Please play in fullscreen for the intended resolution.

HOW TO PLAY:

• Each turn you can either attack or defend. 
• If both players attack:
  • The loser takes the difference in hands worth of damage.
• If one player defends:
  • They take half the difference in hands worth of damage. If the defender has the better hand, all damage is avoided.
• If both players defend:
  • The player with the winning hand receives a "block token", which will negate 3 points of damage the next time damage is received.
• Each time you defend you choose two of the three dealt cards to play, with the third going into your reserve (if not full).
• You can draw cards by either hitting, or playing from your reserve pile.

• Face cards have special effects when played:
  • Jack: Deals 1 damage to opponent.
  • Queen: Gain 1 block token.
  • King: Draw an extra card, which is placed in reserve.

Thank you for checking out my game! Card Combat is a turn-based combat game based on the mechanics of blackjack.

This game is still a work in progress - so please mind that some things may be incomplete. It is in a fully playable state, but some info/context elements are currently yet to be implemented. Audio too!

Any feedback or suggestions are greatly welcomed!
