About Emberdeck

Emberdeck is a single-player roguelike deckbuilder set on a frontier where the furnaces went out and the seasons stopped. You cross three acts, the Kiln March, the Hollow Pilgrimage and the Unseasoned Wild, and face a guardian at the end of each.

It began as a Windows desktop game. The rules, rendering and audio are written in Rust, and the same code is compiled to WebAssembly for the browser, so the version you play here is the full game, not a cut-down port.

How it was made

The game code was written with AI assistance. The illustrations for heroes, cards, relics, events and endings were made with AI image generation and then chosen and edited for the game. Sound effects come from procedural audio scripts written for the project. There are no licensed or borrowed assets.

Version

You are looking at Emberdeck 0.4.5. The game is still growing. Some of the newer heroes use placeholder art for now.
