At my birthday yesterday, I ate too much excellent food, as well as a small cup of cold coffee. Unfortunately it kept me up until 11:30, way past my usual 9:30 bedtime.

I spent the time playing my card game over and over, incorporating three new spell cards: Assassin, Healing Light, and Life Drain. They all work, though I'd like to put in some logic for the AI so that it'll play it when "best". They make the game lots of fun as they add variety to what was previously just a creature-only concept. I'm up to a total of 14 cards now, which seems small, but actually lends itself to some complex battles. I'd like to double that number at least.

I spent a bunch of time playtesting yesterday, redoing some of the cards' attributes and redoing nearly every creature. I think I'm starting to suspect that the game is really, really fun. It was hard to stop playing, though perhaps it was the coffee.
