February SS Reward 1&2- Change Deck 0.5!
We've been a bit quiet on the comms lately because this has been a big one! Our Unity based card game Change Deck has not only been completely re-coded from scratch into Ren'Py (thanks to Valkern - a huge thanks for all the work you put in there), but it has also had significant changes to boot!

The old "classic" game worked as a single entry point with two challengers to eventually pick from. That concept has been reworked to now have three individual chapters, each with their own lead in story.
The old system of "boobs vs butt" etc has been replaced by a standard "Warrior beats rogue beats wizard" across all game formats. In the transformation place is the Card Shop, where you can buy specific cards with orbs you earn from playing the game. Now if you want to just go boobs all the way the choice is yours!
This is very much the tip of the iceberg of what is for most intents an entirely new game, aside from the core gameplay mechanic. And it's one that I hope will give us some nice groundwork for future additions.
Update Notes:
Game completely remade in Ren’Py
New challenger “Felicia”, along with a new set
Classic game mode completely reworked, changing the cards to be a standardised set across all games.
Over 70 new and reworked animations.
Over 60 new sprite stills
Introducing the “card shop” and separated Chaos Orbs.
New animated backgrounds for all classic challengers.
Animated menus for game mode, classic menu, card shop and chaos orb alter.
Hundreds of new/reworked lines of dialogue.
Many new music tracks and sfx added
New purpose for Orbs of Order - now they can be traded in for cash or inventory space at the Card Shop
Reworked gallery
Reworked UI over all aspects of the game
Notes of Issue / Road Ahead. For the future of the game, in the short term there are a few main aspects that are going to be given attention:
Midnight Run is functional, however has not had the level of reworking that the classic game has. It will be given a similar level of visual polish in the future.
It is currently possible to earn more Orbs of Order than have use. This will be rolled into another use in a future update.
Given the extent of new content being added, there may be some visual glitches. Please let us know in comments, Discord or via DMs of any problems you come across.
This version is most definitely not backwards compatible, nor can it be, since it is derived from an entirely different coding language.
Whew! Well aside from all of that, we've just got a little more left until we wrap for Feb. See you soon!

Great Update! out of curiosity have you thought doing like futa/pussy, blueberry and shrinking?
Thanks Growth Lover. There is futa in Midnight Run should you choose there to be. Blueberry and shrinking are currently only in The Pill so they aren't off the table for potential other cards.
Idk about anyone else, but I cannot get any of the opponents (other than the one who doesn't change choices) to throw 3 in a row. Played nearly 100 games of this and still haven't unlocked the 3rd stage for any of the transformations on the player avatar. Am I missing a pattern or something?
Its a random generator so as much as I wish there was a pattern to share with you its random (and unfortunate in this case) luck. I'm glad you've played so many games and not come across any bugs of note.
Im having some issues with the gallery, I cant access the Orb animations for felicia despite unlocking them. And some wont indicate unlocked after going through the combinations. Still this is a great game!
I have fixed that and we'll get a patch out shortly.
Favorite game. Eager to see how it goes
It was nice to revisit it after all this time.
just trying this on steam deck. I'll let you know! good work in advance!
Thanks man, hope it runs smoothly for you.
anyone else not able to extract files?
I see in Discord you were able to get it sorted, if you could let us know the process you took for any other's with the issue that'd be appreciated.
Love the update so far. Is Felicia only supposed to attack with lust? I was going to say that with that mode, when you do Hourglass+Titan+Clothing, you misplaced "Curvaceous" as "Curvacious". Put then, I find out that's actually spelled like that in British English, when referring to someone that's "Pleasingly Curved". Never mind on that one.
Glad you like it! Another language difference, I see. We normally default to the American spelling on things, but didn't actually know there was a difference in this instance.
loving the new update! may i suggest shortstack/compress or shrink cards in the future?
Not a bad idea, we'll keep it in the pot 😊
Loving the game. I've got to ask how the scrying part is meant to work? Am I meant to click on the moving head or press when the head is at a certain point?
It is to click on the moving head. A solid click on it should result in a positive scrying.
Will this work on Iphone?
Sadly no. Apple does allow us to make content for iOS as they do not allow adult content.
(Cracks knuckles) Let's get to business.
Maybe it's my machine, but in windowed mode the game takes forever to render the backgrounds and slows to a crawl frame-rate wise. While playing in full screen there's no issue whatsoever, so maybe something tied to resolution? I'm not sure what the issue seems to be in windowed mode for me.
The information I have says that windowed mode may cause more system drag, as it also has to render the windows environment, which pulls more on the CPU, GPU and VRAM. I'm glad it is running okay in full screen though.
Sweet can't wait to give this a try after work. Ooh tip the iceberg additional "themes" for growth sign me all the way up.
Hope you got to it in the end 😉
Woo! I'm so glad that you got around to updating my favorite game!
Hope you enjoy the new content!
