Why TCG Engine over similar assets?

-Cards and Abilities use Scriptable Objects
-Multiple games can run on a single server process
-Run the game in Unity directly from any scene (faster testing)
-Client and Game Server use the same Unity Project
-Game logic uses the same code for Solo and Multiplayer
-UI and Visuals code is well separated from the core rules and effects code.
-Using the official Unity Networking: Netcode (no 3rd party asset required)
-Author of this asset has worked on several card games for various clients
-Fast and accessible support on Discord
Current Limitations
-Demo sprites are not animated
-WebGL build requires 3rd party integration for Netcode to work
-No login system

Coding
This is not a no-coding asset. And while cards and abilities can be edited directly from the data files (scriptable objects), you will need to edit the code to add features or change the core game rules. I made the decision to not include any custom editor GUI to keep the code as simple as possible and useable for a varied level of programming skills. I put a high priority on keeping the code clean and well structured. We have a Discord community for people to help each other if you are just starting with coding. And I will be glad to listen to any feedback to improve the code in future versions if needed. More info in the doc.
