I've been working on a online multiplayer simulator for the new(ish) card game Elestrals for a year now. It's Pokémon meets Yu-Gi-Oh with a bit of Greek mythology sprinkled in, with my favourite mechanic being that your health is your resource. You can blow it all on a power play or conserve your health and strike when you spot an opening.

It's almost done and I'm really proud of it. Obviously excluding the programmer art, the only thing left to implement in the engine is displaying stat changes client side and... The functionality for every card they've printed. No biggie lol.

The problem is they announced an official one and it really killed my motivation. That's still a problem I have yet to overcome 😅
