• v0.2.0 — Frost & Boss Memories - 14 September 2026

  Chilled and Frozen This update adds two new statuses that feed into each other. Chilled loses half its stacks at the start of the character's turn, which looks harmless — until its stacks exceed 33% of that character's max HP. At that moment every Chilled stack is wiped and becomes 1 Frozen. A Frozen character takes half damage and cannot act once its turn starts: an enemy skips its move, and the player's turn ends immediately. It loses 1 stack at the end of the turn. So Chilled is not a slow poison. It is a meter you are meant to push over a threshold on purpose. Stack it fast enough and the target loses a whole turn; stack it too slowly and it just melts away. Arriving alongside it: New cards Frost Bolt and Frost Bolt+: deal damage and Imbue the target with Chilled equal to the damage dealt. New affixes Frostbite and Cold Snap: apply Chilled to the target or to a random enemy. New aff…

• [Dev Interview] Why We Built a Deckbuilder with the Path of Exile Experience - 9 September 2026

  CARDCRAFTER is out. We took the chance to sit the producer down and ask the questions players keep asking us: why a card game, what makes this one different, why this art style — and if he could only pick one monster as a mascot, which would it be. Here's the full Q&A. Q1. Why did you choose to make a card game? I'm a longtime card game player, and it's my favorite genre. As my understanding of it matured, I wanted to build a card game that combined everything I love — one that even I wouldn't be able to put down. Q2. There are already a lot of card game variants on Steam. What sets yours apart? The core mechanics take a lot of inspiration from Path of Exile and Slay the Spire. If I had to put it in one sentence that veteran players would immediately understand, I'd say it's "a deckbuilder with the Path of Exile experience." Beyond that, there are unique systems like Memory Fragments an…

• CARDCRAFTER Is Out Now! Thank You, Cardsmiths — Come Join Our Discord - 9 September 2026

  Cardsmiths, today is the day CARDCRAFTER is now available on Steam! Starting today you can forge your own cards, build a deck no one else has, head into procedurally generated runs, and hammer the spoils into Rare cards that exist nowhere else in the world. New here? Here's the short version Forge your own cards: you decide the affixes, and rarity is something you earn one enchant at a time. Every Rare is one of a kind: each Rare card carries its own visual signature — no two are ever alike. Forge → set out → reap → forge again: prepare in the Workshop, prove it on the run, and bring new cards home if you make it back alive. Trade on the Market: enchants and artisan coins are the currency — list the cards you forged and trade with other cardsmiths. Thank you To everyone who wishlisted, played the demo, and left us feedback along the way: thank you. Launch day isn't the finish line — it'…

• CARDCRAFTER is Coming to Steam - 28 August 2026

  Hello everyone - we're the team behind CARDCRAFTER. After a long stretch at the forge, CARDCRAFTER is almost ready to meet you on Steam. Before we launch, we wanted to share what this game is really about. Every card is forged by your own hand In CARDCRAFTER, cards aren't pulled from a fixed pool. You make them, one at a time. The artwork, the effects, the ornamentation on the card face - every card you own is something you shaped at the forge. And the very finest of them? We'll say this much for now: some card faces are truly one of a kind. In the entire game, nobody else will ever hold that exact card. Build a deck that is only yours Once you have cards of your own making, the next step is turning them into a deck nobody else could have built. There's no correct list and no solved answer - how you forge decides how you fight. The crafters' market An in-game trading market lets you put…
