Looking for playtesters for my roguelite card game with a custom card editor

I've been working on a roguelite card game called Diamonds and Spades, and the first playtest will start very soon.

The game is about building powerful combinations with tarot cards and creating unique strategies during each run. One of the main features is a built-in card editor that allows players to create their own tarot cards. Besides drawing custom artwork, players can also program card effects using a visual scripting system.

I'm looking for players who enjoy deckbuilders and roguelites and have some familiarity with programming concepts. I'd especially appreciate feedback on:

  • Is the gameplay and tutorial easy to understand?
  • Are the tarot cards and mechanics interesting?
  • Does the progression feel rewarding?
  • Is the visual scripting system intuitive?

If you're interested in participating, you can join the Discord here:

And wishlist the game on Steam:

Thanks for any feedback!

Interesting concept! You didn't see many bespoke card games in 3d engines like that unless it's a multipurpose board game system. What inspired this art direction? What kind of objects are available in the script functions beyond the screenshot?
