Cardcast

by @niothiel

More work on https://cardcast.gg. It's a way for my friends and I to play Magic: The Gathering online using a webcam. For those unfamiliar, you take the webcam sitting on the top of your monitor and point it down at your desk, then play with your friends using paper cards over a video call, but specifically tailored towards Magic + Commander. Recently I've been focused on marketing and small bug fixes. I think the core feature set is compelling enough, now I want to draw more players and start building a community. Been doing some social media stuff, designing an icon (this is HARD for me, I'm not very creative), and looking to print out a bunch of Cardcast-branded Magic cards that I can hand out at my local TCGs. If you play MTG, I'm looking for more people to come give me feedback and contribute. Feels like something others can benefit from!
