Hi 👋, I just released [elm-card-game](https://dark.elm.dmy.fr/packages/Orasund/elm-card-game/latest/). Checkout [the guide](https://orasund.github.io/elm-card-game/#/documentation/game-card) and also the [DEMO](https://orasund.github.io/elm-card-game/#/demo/rock-paper-scissors).

I created tons of card games over the last couple of years and this package is finally a way to digitalize them 🎉 But I’m also very curious what other people make with it 👀

It’s fully customizable and can be extended, replaced or used as baseline for your own packages.

No magic included 😉

I’d be interested in seeing those card games!

I publish all my games at [https://orasund.itch.io/](https://orasund.itch.io/). So you can expect to see them there at some point.

This is so cool! Are all of these built with Elm?

yeah. All of them are in Elm. I love writing turn-based games in Elm. It’s just so simple.

Nice work, looks extremely slick! If I come up with an idea for a card game I’ll definitely give it a try.

It’s quite a nice demonstration of elm-card-game. You can also find the [source on github](https://github.com/Orasund/meat-n-jam-2023) and I also wrote a small [devlog about the DSL](https://orasund.itch.io/waiting-for-wind/devlog/501470/using-dsls-for-card-games) I used for this game.

* * *

a bit unrelated: I have also started a devlog about rewriting one of my old games. In the devlog i try to cover both game design and programming in Elm. You can find a [sneak peak on the github repos](https://github.com/Orasund/littleWorldPuzzler/blob/main/devlog1.md). I will announce it in a new thread once I have published my first few logs.
