[show] Rise & Ruin trading card game

[Ray Beez]

Are you ready for a little R & R ?

Hey folks, am I glad to finally show this off.




Here is some "marketese" :wink: :

Rise & Ruin is an entirely new twist on the trading card game (TCG) genre. Players level up their own customized avatar while assembling decks from an ever-growing pool of powerful attack, defense, magic, and specialty cards. Thrilling, cinematic 3D battles take place directly in a web browser allowing for fast and accessible game play.






We've actually been in Open Beta for just over 2 months now, but some major bugs got worked out, so I feel better about showing it now.

The game is half Flash, half 3DVIA (formerly Virtools). The two plugins actually live on the page at the same time, but alternate focus using some Javscript and DIV trickery, and we got the two plugins "talking" to each other using Javascript as well. (I hope its not "cheating" that the above screen shots are of the 3D portion?)

All the non-3D interface screens, like card management, deck creation, skills page, Chat, etc are in Flash. ;-) The game is FREE to play as much as you want. You get a free account, custom avatar, a free newbie pack, and play as much as you want. So don't be afraid to sign up. (No, we won't sell your email address)

Since we are new, our chat/battle rooms are sometimes empty (darn school starting took away a bunch of our regulars!) Check out our event schedule for special events where you can meet people, battle them, participate in special challenges and win new cards and skill points:

We sell in-game credits via a reputable secure service, which can be used to buy card packs (you get a free newbie pack with every account). Help support small indie game developers and help shape this game as it evolves. Already in our 2 months we have taken player feedback and bug reports and implemented several updates. Being a browser game, we have the luxury of continually updating and improving the experience.

I moderate the chat on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7:30pm (EST) to 10m under the name "GM Spore". Please come say hello! Or check out Friday Night Fights event at 7:30pm (EST) on Friday!
