Fans of Magic: The Gathering will be delighted to know that the homebrew project based on the archetypal collectible card game is back. After some legal run-ins with Wizards Of The Coast, wololo, the sublime code wrestler, has managed to produce a Magic game that avoids copyright complications entirely. Check out what’s up in this new release:
- More than 300 new cards, including cards from Tempest, Portal, and the new Conflux Expansion. Many thanks to Dr. Solomat for his work on Tempest and Portal. This means Wagic now officially has more than 1000 cards you can play with, not counting all the ones you can create by yourself (sky’s the limit, yeah!). As usual, check the forums for more cards!
- Wagic now handles Token generators such as the Hive
- Sacrifice has been added (I know you’ve been waiting for this one for a long time!)
- New ability keyword: cloud
- Lots of improvements in the card parser, new keywords, etc…. Cards such as Siege-gang Commander, Bad Moon, or the hive can now be 100% coded in the _cards.dat files without having to know one single line of C++ (sacrifice, token generators, “lord” ability improvement, multiple abilites for one cost,moveTo,…)
- Font fixes
- New cool menus
- Lots of improvements for cards shown in “text” mode
- Too many bug fixes to tell
Sounds fantastic to us. Our back is aching from hauling this rucksack stuffed with 100,000 Magic cards around, so we welcome the opportunity to play in a portable way. Mad props to wololo for his work.
