But the game mechanics never quite seemed right. T: How long did it take to complete ‘Card Shuffle’? How many people worked on it and what roles did they have?į: I was fiddling about with the concept back in the beta of Wings of Liberty. It showed how a relatively simplistic game design with heroes, hero abilities and cards could work. A guy called ‘Zync’ made a 'Card Shuffle' map in Warcraft III and it truly inspired my map a lot.īut Hearthstone was the main motivation. T: What was the inspiration for ‘Card Shuffle’?į: I played many cards games when I was young and I always wanted to make one myself.
Every now and then I get a flash of inspiration to make something new myself. If I see a map I really like that's abandoned I'll sometimes remake it. I play a lot of the arcade maps out there. T: What made you want to make games with the StarCraft II editor?į: I'm much more of a gamer than a mapper. I made a map called ‘Ninja vs Samurai’ that got quite popular and made a sequel to the already popular Elimination Tournament map. When Warcraft III came out, I started to get a bit more serious. T: How did you get started in game design?į: I started in the original Starcraft, but nothing serious - just fooling around. We asked Fulla for his thoughts on the creation of Card Shuffle and this is what he had to share with us.įulla:Hi everyone, I'm Fulla, I'm 29 and from Essex in England. Like all of our featured games, Card Shuffle is available free to play to anyone using the StarCraft II Starter Edition. If you’re ready to start playing, grab a friend and dive into Card Shuffle. Try out different combinations and find the one that suits your playstyle the best. Alternatively, the Devourer’s heal ability synergies well with the ‘Machine Spirit’ deck which contains minions with large healthpools. Combining it with the ‘Beyond the Grave’ deck - which focuses on overwhelming your opponents with low-cost minions - can lead to a very early advantage.
The Devourer, for instance, summons a free unit whenever you use a card that creates a minion. Finding powerful and clever combinations among the heroes and the decks is a big appeal of Card Shuffle.
Every hero has two special abilities that can complement the different decks in various ways. When the game starts, you are presented with various heroes and card decks each with their own unique traits. We really appreciate the game’s accessibility and quick start-up. In this new feature, we’re checking out Card Shuffle, a team-versus-team game where you use minions and spells to take out your opponents.
