How’s the time off going??

I'm glad you like the video :) There's now a server if you want to check out the community and get some more inspiration!

Oh, are you still interested in card games?

@@mohandasjung Yep! Got a whole Pokémon set and saving money to get Yu-gi-oh cards!

suck

Well, it's sad his website is not working :(

Go a 0.5 font size smaller and use bold formatting, should fit in the same sized box but stand out more :)

Making the cards have higher value comes with the game itself having a higher value. Increasing your SEO to get first place on key words is a great way to start getting a wider audience, thus increasing the value of your game/cards. For example, I'm almost on the first page of google for "Mythology Card Game" meaning, once I get number one on google in time I'll surpass the few top dog competition in that genre. All of which comes with increasing your audience. As for the combos, and flex matches that all comes with designing your cards in such a way, and marketing said cards to be more rare than others. Which will increase those specific cards in value, as well as making it a key strategy to have said cards.

@@TCGNews lol yeah ik all that, i just wanted to make a fun comment on your video. Very thorough, very informative for new developers

You seem to know a lot. Thank you so much. I've actually been working on too many games and I have a few I'm about to finish. I've been looking for the best way to go about it and this video adds so much more perspective.

Sounds like someone plays Yu-Gi-Oh

I've been on hiatus so I'm sorry for the 9 month delay lol. But MakePlayingCards & TheGameCrafter are two good ones for most of those! I think MPC may do Foil backs but not sure, and I don't think TGC does that. MPC does a lot of cool stuff, such as see through cards and such.

Digital Card Games are completely different than normal card games, I've hired a few developers to work on Demi's online game and each time they've quit half way through leaving me with wasted funds and a product I cannot use so I wouldn't be help at that at all.

​@@TCGNewsIf you do want to make one in the future, I suggest making a contract to greentree it gets made.

Good luck with the idea! It sounds like something that war fans might be interested in playing! Also, how do you plan to fund and print your project to fans?

The Game Crafter is a very popular way to create and print your game for others

@@jackeverborn thanks for advice, my cards are already created 😀

@@starkex7230 what did you use to create them?

Cocktail is a great software for making cards Fernando! You can find more information on it on our server guilded.gg/TCG

Hello, this reply is a year late however I have made a video on this! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hMmanMak1d_VmX0.html Here you go!

I'd get a copyright or possibly a trademark the name/game if it's not expensive. I live in the states and depending on the state it can range from $50 such as where I live, and up to several thousands in others if you're forced to get a lawyer. It'd be extremely hard to patent a game unless it's the entirety of the game (Though I am no lawyer or professional so this is just my personal opinion)

Go to the Indie TCG group, then go in the HTCG Resources forum.

The result will be Duelmasters😊!

You can still get hit with a C&D if they wanted to. There's a lot of personal projects that were making no money that were hit with C&D. Most of the time if you just remove it there's nothing to worry, but it's still a risk if they wanted to do something more.

Feel free to join our community and ask there :) There's tons of game devs that are always willing to help brainstorm stuff with you :D

You have two major ones, Tabletop Simulator which is the best imo, and Untapped. I have a video on how to upload your cards to Tabletop simulator if you're interested! Hopefully this helps :)

And Tabletopia! You can do quite a bit on a free subscription there

@@travisbuschette8609 I'll look into that and make a video on it as well :)

Same here...

I'm a bit late to both of you, but we're helping someone out right now who's only using a phone. I'm also going to be making a video for this! Check out our server to get more help on this matter! www.guilded.gg/i/24AmzGGk

Watch our videos, we explain almost all of that! Feel free to also join the TCG community. Guilded.gg/TCG

@@TCGNews ok thanks which video please if you remember

Yes, for the border it's safe to make it the entire rest of the card.

Asking the same thing. But I think what you and I are mostly looking for is to trademark.

I’m not an expert in this but I remember a KZfaqr (Dice tower I think) recommended not to get trade marks, copy write, ect. This industry runs on slim margins and your copy writes will cost more money. As well if someone does steal your work it’s up to you to charge them, and most likely hiring a lawyer. There is also no garentee you will win a case, or if you win your theif might just declare bankruptcy and you just spent $50,000 on nothing. Other companies try to patten terms like “trading card games” to kill off competitors. Those competitors then used “collectable card games” (yes wizard of the coast did try this) If your worried of people stealing your work try this: post online on several forums of your game. The more info the better. Then make your game easy to buy. If anyone wants to steal and sell your game, they will see that anyone can do it and your already a easy person to buy from. This it’s not worth it. But if your still worried, send your game to your self via post/ mail carriers. Do not open it. This will hold up in a court of law that you are the owner. Cheers

I'll make a vide on this eventually to help out! In the mean time feel free to join our server www.guilded.gg/i/kgNna3q2

You could look into using Gimp or other free alternatives to Photoshop. It'd still be digital and would look significantly better than hand drawn

@@TCGNews I am planing to put my hand drawn into my computer that’s the plan I like hand drawing because of trail and error it puts character and sweat redraw it or keep it no redos.

@@TCGNews if I sound like Aggressive or offended that wasn’t my intention sometimes text add volume when typing thank you I will check out gimp.

@@MagicApocalypseTCG I never got the impression of aggressiveness or anything :) Good luck with gimp, I'd recommend using your hand drawn and just tracing it over on Gimp to make it digitalized :) That's what my wife does as she's the artist in the household lol

@@TCGNews I already have color them in but I will trace them with gimp see if I like it, thank you.

Sorry for the extremely late reply, he charged $50 at the time but since retired. I ended up giving him around $6k for one final large design spree and that was enough for him to build his own house, as well as open up his own physical store so now I'm in search for another designer myself. Realistically you're going to be extremely lucky to find someone for $50 an artwork, most will be around $100 unless you get lucky like I did.

Make smaller goals, if your overall goal is to make a fully official version of the game and that is so daunting then look at breaking down that goal and make smaller goals. It can be as small as Digitize one card, and when you do that the next goal is digitize 5 cards, etc. Once you have the entire game digitized you can look into "Finding the right place to print the cards" doing it this way may help your mental state as you will actually get dopamine for completing the smaller tasks which will 'refill your energy' to progress versus getting overwhelmed with one large goal.

That actually made me laugh

Thanks so much

You should join guilded.gg/TCG there's always people looking for artists!

How do I discuss your rate?

Negative, It had all fused into guilded.gg/xyphien-llc

If you're referring to the TCG I mentioned in the video it was probably "Demi" also known as "Demi Card Game"

@@TCGNews please rethink the name

@@TCGNews Denetros

@@TCGNews demetros

It was an already creat the game. Why would they rename from when asked

I'd look into Cocktail. It's very easy to use, we're also partnered with them and I personally use it for a few card games I've made so I know from experience it's good. Cocktail dot software

My personal company isn't however if you'd like to join guilded.gg/TCG there's always people looking for artists there for hire!

That's absolutely your headphones' fault.

Heya id be down to hear you out
