I'm working on a card game where you go around and challenge characters to a game of cards.

You should absolutely be able to fish and have pets. What else?

Probable release date: 2095, but just in case...

Character customization including eyecolor and jaw shape.

You already included card battling, covered there...

The word "roguelike" in the description (actual roguelike mechanics should not be included if you do this) (alternately, "souls-like").

    haha, they are going to be FF tactics / Balders Gate 1&2 style avatars but I'm sure I can put some sliders in.

    Make sure you can choose between male and female to get some free promo from the "everything is woke now" crowd.

    Part of my idea is that you build your character from your choices - which are tied to cards. I couldn't work out a good way to get of gendered cards (King/Queen) so I figured maybe you could choose gendered influence over your characters using the semiotics of the cards.

    On the other hand - everything could be a slider, or even better, a wheel.
