In a dystopian future, Artificial Intelligence dominates the online world, mimicking human flaws in this indie card game. An in-game neural network customizes and randomizes 2D art on the fly, pulling you into anime-style profile pics and social media chaos. Real-time-with-pause controls the action, letting you halt time to play cards and chain combos while managing ticking timers as your key resource.
Grab packets of cards infused with internet stereotypes and personalities, each forming a third of your deck for quick mix-and-match builds with a pre-constructed vibe. Skip the grind of single-card collection and deck trimming. This setup suits players who crave strategic pauses amid frantic timing in card games.
h8machine is a cardgame set in a dystopian future in which Artificial Intelligence has completely overtaken the online world and the worst part is - it learned to behave just like us ...
but AI isn't just a flavor here! an in-game neural network allows you to customize and randomize 2D art in real time! with this TECHNOLOGY, you can fully immerse yourself in the world of anime profile pics posting complete garbage. it's just like real life social media!
no one uses realtime-with-pause in cardgames, probably for some good reason. but screw it, I like RTWP so I just put it in!
the flow of time is your main resource! will you get lost in the hectic chaos of ticking timers, or will you optimize every fraction of a second at your disposal? remember: the active pause system allows you to play any card you want while the time stops. use it to make your decisions and execute powerful combos!
are you tired of collecting cards one by one and having to remove the crap ones from your deck as a deckbuilder game goes on? in h8machine, you grab packets of cards with their own "personalities" instead, internet stereotypes and whatnot. each of these personalities contributes 1/3 of your deck, and you can mix&match them to easily form decks with a pre-constructed feel
