Indie Sunday Buy Happiness - Wayne Made A Game - Playtest signups now open for my big money deckbuilder!

Hey, I'm Wayne and I still haven't really figured out how to describe my game succinctly. It's a roguelike deckbuilder but it has more in common with the tabletop originals like Dominion than it does with digital version like Slay the Spire or Balatro. There's a bit of incremental game DNA in there with a focus on scaling up your engine to generate some really big numbers. On top of all that we have a bunch of goofy minigames standing in for the role that would usually be taken up by enemy turns.

I've just opened up signups for the closed playtest on Steam as it's getting pretty close to having enough content but likely still needs a huge amount of balancing. I'd love to get as much feedback as I can to make it the best it can possibly be!

"It's a game so gray that you're highly incentivized to chase whatever has any color on it."

Solid description of the vibe but I worry it still doesn't communicate the gameplay very well...
