UPDATE - THIS PROJECT EVOLVED INTO A REAL CARD GAME
A web-based implementation of a fast-paced card game. Python, Django and HTML5/JavaScript.
It currently looks like this:
Card iconography comes straight off the fantastic Game Icons resource. Thank you!
This particular implementation provides registered players with a persistent gamestate, which means that the current game session can be accessed from anywhere.
But that also means that the game has to be installed with a database and hosted on a server - it is pretty easy to get it running on localhost, though.
WARNING - REQUIRES DJANGO 1.6
To get the game up and running, you need to have Python and Django installed. After that you just go:
$ python manage.py syncdb
$ python manage.py runserver
Now you can open a browser and hit up localhost to register a user and start playing.
All the cards are defined in initial_data.json as instances of core.carddetail. The amount of these should not be modified, as defined in the rules. But the existing ones can have their names, description and flavor texts changed. e.g:
{
"pk": 33,
"model": "core.carddetail",
"fields": {
"kind": 2,
"name": "Ogre",
"value": 14
}
}Could be changed to:
{
"pk": 33,
"model": "core.carddetail",
"fields": {
"kind": 2,
"name": "Armada",
"description": "An armada of enemy spaceships.",
"flavor": "Fleeing is always an option.",
"value": 14
}
}The %-chance values can also be tweaked for gameplay balance. Look in core\rules.py for the draw_single function.
Try playing with these values:
card_should_be_beneficial = roll(0, 100) >= 60 # 40 chance of not being a monster card
card_should_be_special = roll(0, 100) >= 95 # 5% chance of being specialAnd these:
weapon_range = range(0, 45)
weapon_part_range = range(45, 75)
potion_range = range(75, 90)
treasure_range = range(90, 100)Copyright 2014 Jacob Hauberg Hansen.
