Powerful Features for Card Game Prototyping

• User-Friendly Editor: Our interface is built for speed, allowing you to design, layout, and customize your first card in mere seconds.
• Integrated Asset Browser: Start prototyping immediately with our built-in library of high-quality assets.

Professional Tools for Game Designers

• Project-Based Workflow: Keep your ideas organized by creating separate, dedicated projects for every game concept in your library.
• Flexible Sizing: Whether you need standard poker-sized cards or custom dimensions, you have full control over your project’s physical specs.
• Data-Driven Design: Leverage the power of CSV integration to perform mass updates across your entire project, making balancing and iteration faster than ever.

• Open Data Standards: Your work belongs to you. Card Engine uses an accessible XML-based save format, ensuring your project files remain readable and editable.
