That's basically what I'm asking. Would you rather have a blank character card for replacement or custom characters, or would you rather have another "official" character that's been playtested and has high quality art.

Edit: To elaborate more, printers do cards in sheets. If there is extra space on the sheet we're still charged for it regardless of whether or not we're using that space. Depending on whether or not we can nail down Seija she may end up in the final game, but blank character cards are also a possibility. It could also happen that the final printer uses sheets that 24 is a multiple of and Seija doesn't make it in. We're commited to the current 24 but otherwise it's up in the air. I may do a social media poll in the future, but for now I thought I'd ask the forums.

This does make me think of a question for the thread. How do you feel about blank DIY cards? Have you ever used one to create your own custom card?

I have never used a packed-in blank card for anything. If I'm going to make custom cards I prefer to scan and edit the normal cards so that my custom one has art. That said, if you've got an empty slot and you feel like you would have the time and resources to playtest another character and get art for it and everything, I'd like to see that. If not, I'm sure a blank card would be fine. It's not preferable to me, but it would be better than a rushed extra character or nothing.

I completely agree with commandercool.
Also, I fear that, if that blank card were to be used, some pretty unbalanced characters might come out of that. That alone is reason enough for me not to use that card for a custom character. xD
So yeah, if you've still got time to playtest a character for the blank card, then I'd prefer that option, too. ^^

Custom cards could really be unfair depending on who's playing. I'm up for another character if you can.

Super Rare Mega Card Capture Spell Card

The Greatest Dog · « **Reply #215 on:** July 18, 2014, 01:19:36 AM »

waiting patiently for Byakuren's art :V

Considering that the art is already better than a lot of party card games I've seen, so I dunno how to say anything more than "This looks really good!"
Although Reimu's art is chilling out as my phone's background.

Colticide · « **Reply #216 on:** July 18, 2014, 01:39:59 AM »

Oh god my heart! Satori! Just made my day... Or what's left of it lol. I love the art updates but I'd hate to make you feel the need to rush on getting it to us.

Moogs Parfait · « **Reply #217 on:** July 18, 2014, 01:48:14 AM »

If everyone feels that way then I suppose silence is golden. Byakuren will show up shortly, but not her character card. She's on some other cards in the update queue.

Satori captured your heart did she Coilticide? We post weekly anyway as a project heartbeat to let everyone know we're still going.

aranicar · « **Reply #218 on:** July 18, 2014, 01:55:20 AM »

Whoa, this game looks fun! I would love to try it out, but I don't have any friends who would play card games with me

. I'll be following along and learning the game rules in the meantime. Keep up the good work!

Any chance for Koishi or Kokoro to appear in an expansion?

As a side note, I don't know if this is happening to anyone else, but your main page is being flagged for malware by BitDefender Total Security. I went to the site and had absolutely no problems, so I'm pretty sure it's a false alarm.

I'm sure once the game is out officially the silence will end. If you don't mind post the art asap then I won't stop you, I'll patiently wait for the update.

There is a small group of characters that do that and Satori is adorable in most art. Kenie has some kind of devil horns going on, I'm assuming she is all translucent because Satori is using one of her spell cards?

Kagura just does horns like that and we decided roll with it, check out her Suika. And yes, Satori is using her spell card. It's hard to notice links on this forum but the Main Site Post (http://danmaku.mysteryparfait.com/capture-spell-card/) has a link to Kagura's dA page and you can see the icon for the new Victory Point alt rules.

As an aside, a personal commission for our Nursery just got finished:

Colticide · « **Reply #221 on:** July 18, 2014, 07:42:09 AM »

2 X adorable combo! I think I need to eat lava now, to many awwws. But to be fair the pokemon one is pretty sweet.

Is that gonna be on your wall in the nursery? (Don't know very much about that stuff sorry)

Not true!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I started making modifications to Danmaku!! to fit my main playgroup I wanted to check in once I felt it was 'complete' but it just kept changing and changing and changing. I'm definitely going add the main game to my collection when it comes out, but I've been having a blast modifying and testing my changes and learning about game design in the process. Just FYI I have no intention of selling my mod, but I will happily share or not share according to your wishes.

Here's an example of some modifications I've been working with:

And I am interested in the art post, partially because this is what I've been using for Capture Spell Card:

Keep up the good work!

A fangame of my fangame? I guess I've hit the big time!

I don't really have the ability to or interest in stopping such things. If you share it, I'd be extremely careful about using other people's art without their permission. People really get up in arms about that. I think Walfas's sprites are free to use and there might be some others.

Colticide · « **Reply #224 on:** July 18, 2014, 04:39:30 PM »

That is the coolest thing ever! I can imagine what it could look like too. (Sorry that this is a bit off topic, as I have yet to play the card game I have limited input.)

I think that's the way it is. I don't have anything to add on any of the art aside from "Yeah, really good!". The art quality is excellent. Much better than a lot of widely-sold retail card games. I think it's going to make roping random board gamers into trying the game a lot easier too.

Kimidori · « **Reply #226 on:** July 18, 2014, 06:49:50 PM »

Do you have any plan to make, like, a computer game out of this?

Moogs Parfait · « **Reply #227 on:** July 18, 2014, 06:52:13 PM »

That's another project all by itself, with servers, customer service, etc. It's not an anytime soon thing.

The Greatest Dog · « **Reply #228 on:** July 18, 2014, 11:43:32 PM »

Something that one of my friends said, actually, he'd be interested in having more cards that can be played on reaction... usually he ended up trying to play Borrow or Seal Away cards when he was attacked but that might be the Magic in him wishing this was Magic.

A port to OCTGN http://octgn.net/ is probably viable, but it is a project of it's own.

Hi everyone. We've updated the Print and Play to include Swing Draw and Static Hand Size as core rules. We've also included the new Victory Point rules if you want to try those out.

Thanks to everyone on this board who helped playtest the rules changes.

Also I think I got everyone but if you've sent us playtest data and you didn't get a PM from me, send me one.

The Greatest Dog · « **Reply #232 on:** July 25, 2014, 02:02:12 AM »

I like the new incident that stealthily made its way in there.
I actually had a round of Danmaku!! a few days ago, where I ran as Yuuka and got the mini-Hakkero.

Just saying, Yuuka with a mini-Hakkero is -incredibly- potent. Toss two cards to refresh your entire hand? Other players usually benefit from obtaining more cards, too, so they rarely bomb-cancel it.

Moogs Parfait · « **Reply #233 on:** July 25, 2014, 04:22:26 AM »

It's great when you're already winning, not so great when you're outnumbered.

Also I'm really tired. My kid sleeps through the night already but she isn't interested in going to bed early (the world is too damn interesting) and there's really squat I can do about it.

Giant Sighting was a kind of Non-Incident and in the end didn't fit the purpose of incidents, so it got replaced.

My wife is cosplaying Sailor Mars soon because her friend is being Mercury. She doesn't know anything about Sailor Moon so I'm making her watch the original dub in addition to the remake. It's been hilarious.

"(Tuxedo Mask appears) I thought this was a yuri harem show"
"Wait, her name is BUNNY?"

Colticide · « **Reply #234 on:** July 25, 2014, 11:33:13 AM »

Oh good god, I remember the original but never seen the remake? Is it worth watching? Heck yeah Mars and Mercury! I'm gonna try to cosplay this year but not sure if my idea will go very well lol.

Moogs Parfait · « **Reply #235 on:** July 26, 2014, 02:34:57 AM »

If you enjoyed the original Sailor Moon you'll enjoy the remake I think. There's less filler and in some ways it's more modern, but it's one giant nostalgia bomb.

In Danmaku!! news, I really like how Swing Draw really evens the playing field concerning card draw and makes the randomness more fun. We had Tenshi get hit by Lily White when she had full health. The player didn't care, they were like "Oh, it's my turn and I have...twelve cards." They still lost though when Reisen shut down their combo.

Colticide · « **Reply #236 on:** July 26, 2014, 05:06:22 PM »

Oh really making me want play this! I really want to learn this strategy elements to this game. Plus Tenshi looks fun to play, but what is Reisen all about?

The Greatest Dog · « **Reply #237 on:** July 26, 2014, 05:52:31 PM »

Reisen is a neat character who can cancel almost any spell and copy it for her own use, even turning the spell against its original user.

For a character like Tenshi whose spell lets her draw two additional cards, stealing that effect is a big deal.

Moogs Parfait · « **Reply #238 on:** July 26, 2014, 05:54:34 PM »

Reisen is all about illusion and misdirection. Her ability gives her do-overs on her grazed attacks, "No I really meant to attack Marisa...I swear!"

Her spell card, Lunatic Red Eyes, is an upgraded Bomb Cancel. LRE redirects another player's spell card as it's happening. In the above scenario she redirected Tenshi's spell card, which replicates a Challenge. The card draw and the fact that Reisen was suddenly the initiator of the Challange allowed Reisen to hit Tenshi for that last life.

Edit: In don't mean to talk over you FF but I'd already written my post =P
