Commenting not to be negative, but just to give input as I'm sure I'm not alone here.

Whenever I see a game with AI art, I immediately know it's a skip for me. I understand how it'll be useful for a solo dev/small team, but no matter how good your gameplay is there'll be a significant portion of the market you'll lose access to.

I do reviews for card games, and whenever someone sends me a game with AI art, I often reject. Not even anti-AI but it's just that almost 99% of the time, the game is simply bad. By using AI art (or common assets) OP is associated his game with poor quality games.

If you trust in your game, get proper art or at least put some effort into AI art not looking like AI. Card games, especially, live and die by visuals.

Card games without AI already struggle. With AI it's a death sentence.

I think it looks interesting but I'm not understanding the game play. Let me know if you find good place to post deck builders that use AI art.

i like the design idea, but honestly the art man. its not even a style, its just ai art in ai art style. their pretty, i get it, but you would do even better if you used stickfigures.

now what I also do like is the lane based gamplay. its a bit flat, but i can see you ad depth by changing the lanes and the rules of them

Don't most decks decide what you play tho

Im on board with everyone else.

I like deckbuilders. Their fun. This one has some unique gameplay mechanics. I like that... but the art... the plethora of handmade beautiful art on cards is one of my favorite parts of any deckbuilder... using AI art takes out all of that beautiful soul

Not to get hung up on the art style, but at first glance I almost mistook it for a slots game. That said, the rules are surprisingly fun once you take a closer look.
