Another thing I'd add would be some images of enemies on the card you draw to start a new wave, but that's just a little graphical touch, nothing more.\n\nOverall, I had a lot of fun with this game and I see a lot of potential to expand upon the core concept here!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"cogcomp","author_uid":"1001978","time":"2019-04-29T19:56:45Z","epoch":1556567805,"modified":1556567805,"text":"Delighted to see that the card handling was easy to understand.
