Duel Paws is a 2-player deckbuilding game in which you are the leader of a bunch of cats. You must ensure your opponent’s cats run out of patience before yours do.

This started as a demake of a game called “To Arms!!”, but it has diverged quite a bit and become a very different game. There are still some fundamental similarities.

There is a 2-player pass-and play mode and a single-player mode versus AI. Instructions on how to play are included in the game.

This was made for the Cute Little Demake game jam.

Version 1.2.0 now available! Source and pop can be downloaded on itch.io!

You can just deliver the downloaded zip file. It should contain all the project settings too.

Thanks, I had forgotten about that. Added.

Game’s idea is great but i found it hard to understand what was what. Where are those in-game instruction? All i saw is the info part at the bottom. Would be nice to see the other’s player patience during our turn too.

Maybe i just overlooked something? I am not new to deck-building games but making sense of all the info on screen is confusing me a little.

Edit: nevermind the part about instructions. I missed the C for instructions lol

Due to the impending closure of PyInSky, I thought it was a good time for me to wrap up some unfinished business with Duel Paws. I had some balance changes that I had made that had just been sitting around, so I decided to take those and add a lot more changes on top of those in order to make a proper, polished version of Duel Paws. This version, v1.2.0, contains the following changes:

Rewritten and expanded instructions on how to play
New card guide showing all cards and their effects
Several gameplay rebalances
Various small changes to better convey information
View your deck and your opponent’s deck during a game
Added music and sound effects from OpenGameArt, all CC0:
- Background music is “Talking Cute (Chiptune)” by Alex McCulloch.
- Meow sound effect is from “Cat Purr & Meow” by Kerzoven.
- All other SFX are from “Card Game sounds” by HaelDB.

I uploaded this new version on itch along with its corresponding source code.

After extracting the game zip, merge the “data” folder in the zip with the “data” folder at the root of your Pokitto’s micro SD card so that the music works. The .pop file can be placed anywhere on the micro SD card.
