    I will be putting up an adhoc build of Arcana: Spell Duel early this week for beta test on devices.

    Signups are here

    This is the first time I'm trying this out, so I hope it works out correctly, but please be patient. Slots are limited unfortunately.

    If you don't make it in, you can always try out the work-in-progress online here

    It did fill up extremely fast! Remember, you can always go play the online test version on the web. They are identical. Except for that extra cool factor of being handheld.

    Yep! Dev Fail! These adhoc builds can be rather tricky, I think I figured out why it wouldn't deploy. (new build uploaded)

    The funniest bug I've seen so far is when I was duelling you, someone else joined (they shouldn't be able to) and I had just cast a Magnify 5 Spike 5 and Prolong 3 Fireball at you. It took me the whole duel up to then to summon enough Foci to give me the energy to cast it.

    The camera jumped to where they were, throwing off the missile origin, and luckily you were still hurt. It messed up the turns, otherwise when my turn came again you would've taken that Prolong damage and finished you off. It was my big master plan.

    Ah well, maybe next time ;)
     
  12. How about now?

    OK, that one was much better. I found another bug with lingering spell effects and lag/timing. But it looks like my strategy of building up foci is working ;) BTW you can UNSUMMON someone else's foci by using the disrupt spell.

    You can try and see, it might be a problem!
     
  16. I found several new ones, like my account switched with yours, and when you exit the app, you lose your account info.
